Fave!

This is my all time favourite mascara! I love almost all of maybelline's mascaras and I usually don't bother trying any high end ones because they're never as good as this one. It's very volumising without getting clumpy. I also love the packaging, it's so fun!

Cant go without

This mascara is the best. I always used the Great Lash mascara and decided to give this one a go. All i can say is i love it!! I have really short fine eyelashes and this makes them pop out and look amazing. Its great to use everyday and if you want more dramatic you can put another layer on to pop even more. The only downside for me is, if it runs or gets in my eyes it stings like a sore toe.

In love!

This is my favorite mascara! Lengthens and thickens beautifully without any clumping at all. I have tried all different other mascaras (Im a sucker for new claims) but this is the one I always go back to because it never lets me down. Doesn't smudge or flake either. Its just the best!

A mascara to remember

I've had this mascara for a few weeks now and to be honest I've fallen in love with it. The brush is fantastic and the product glides on so smoothly it's hard to find a fault. I'm bright yellow packaging you won't lose it in your makeup bag, it screws and unscrews easily and application is a breeze. My only problem is the first few times my eyes got a bit irritated with use but that's settled down. Fantastic dark colour and application felt 10x better than anything else I've used. It stays well and no panda eyes for me at the end of the day which is good! (Has replaced lash stiletto as my #1)

Tips: No tips needed. So easy to use and application is actually something to get excited about doing with this product.

One of the best

This is definitely one of the best mascaras out there. It makes my eyelashes super long and thick without going clumpy. It makes your eyelashes look a lot longer especially when you curl them as well.

Love it

I purchased this on sale at Countdown for around $15. Well worth the money. Just like the bottle says you only need one coat and it makes your lashes thicker and longer. It doesn't clump. I didn't get the waterproof version and don't have any trouble removing at all with eye make up remover, it also doesn't run when you cry. I think this will be my new go to mascara

My Fave By Far

I love this mascara! I first tried it a year or two ago and have tried others in this time but I always go back to this one. It's not clumpy, the brush makes it easy to apply and my lashes always end up looking thick and long and people always comment about how good they look. It's a great price and always recommend it to anyone that says they need a new mascara.

Tips: Start at the very base of your lashes and wiggle the brush to separate them before slowly coating the entire lash.

awesome!!

This mascara was on sale at Kmart and I decided to get it..  Overall, the Maybelline Volum' Express The Colossal isn't a bad mascara. It doesn't give colossal volume as the name implies but rather, it gives decent volume and length. It can get clumpy if you get carried away so definitely go easy on the application. 

I had concerns about the large wand but it's actually okay and I don't end up with mascara on my lids. I still like to use a lengthening mascara (L'Oreal Butterfly is my current fave) to finish as I like va va voom lashes. 

How does it hold up after a long day?  I do get some smudging after a long day (but get this with most mascaras and I can't use waterproof versions) and wee bit of flaking.

Does it remove easily with regular eye makeup remover?  Yes, but I still need to get rid of the smudges around my eyes with a Q-tip after using a cotton pad to remove my eye makeup. 

Is there a fragrance?  There is a slight fragrance which seems to common with Maybelline mascaras but this one is rather faint (for me anyways) and it doesn't irritate my eyes. (unlike L'Oreal's Million Lashes) 

Would I repurchase? Yes, if it were on sale and I needed a new mascara. Otherwise, I'd still get the L'Oreal Voluminous carbon black and butterfly

Tips: Don't apply too thick as it can get quite clumpy.

A personal favourite

I really really love this mascara. It's one that doesn't cost a fortune and you can keep coming back to time and again.

The formula is perfect for a mascara and your lashes get a good coating and look long, full and fabulous looking lashes everytime.

This is a really good everyday mascara - and it was a cult favourite when it came out and I think it pretty much still is a favourite of many women.

Tips: Use an eyelash curler to really get your eyelashes to pop and stand out before applying product.
