Not the best

I've found this mascara just okay. I did make my lashes longer but then it also stuck them together a little bit making them all spidery (don't think thats a word). Then I'd have to comb them out using an eyebrow comb. Then came removing it. Oh my goodness what a mission it just wont budge. Even when I thought I'd gotten it all off I'd stll have panda eyes in the morning. So I probably won't buy this again myself

Tips: Use the Trilogy makeup be gone cleansing balm to completely and easily remove this mascara

Average mascara

There was a bucket sale on a months ago and I managed to pick up one of these mascaras to try. What I like about Maybelline is you can find it at almost any store. When I purchase from bucket sales I always look for a mascaras that are completely sealed with packaging because I have purchased other mascaras that ended up being dry. So beware of this .

This mascara comes in a bright yellow container thats easy to open and close. This wand is slightly hooked. The bristles on this brush are short and compacted together nicely. The formula of this mascara is black liquid without any scent.

When I apply this mascara to my lashes it darkens them well without any clumps. My lashes appear to be bold and full with using this. After about four hours of wear I do notice that the bottom lash line seeps out onto my under eye area. I do need to touch up my lashes during this time frame.

I believe this was extremely affordable from a bucket sale and prices can vary from store to store. This mascara can last me up to four months with weekly usage longer if I use it less. I wouldn't buy it again because it did create black under eye circles.

Good for a day time look but....

I thought I would give this mascara a go after reading all the reviews and hearing good things about it.I am a regular user of Maybelline mascaras so I was excited to try this one but I felt it wasn't that great for when it came to adding volume and length to my thin lashes.I had to appy about 3 or 4 coats to make this work and then my eyelashes stuck together so then I had to separate them all the while pulling eyelashes out :( I did find the mascara stayed put and didn't run or cause me panda eyes and the black colour did stand out.I think it would depend on how thick or long your eyelashes are on how well this works for you as not everyone has the same type of eyelashes. Overall it is an ok mascara and very affordable,clump free and run free but I just felt it wasn't for me so off I go to find my "holy grail" mascara again.

Tips: Apply each coat before the other one drys to avoid eyelashes sticking together.

A top fave

A good mascara is a definite must have for me, and this one fits my musts in a mascara: volume, lasting, easy to apply and value for money. It does give quite a full look and I must say if not applied properly (as with everything) you can end up with clumpy lashes. Its fantastic to wear both day and night, the brush isn't so bendy so its easier to get all the lashes. I especially love the diamonds one which gives your ladhes an added sparkle.

Maybelline Volum Express the Colossal

I found this really quite good. It didn't clog up and went on smoothly. I did need to use 2 coats however to get the full lash look I wanted.

Tips: Always rinse out the brush! I do this about once a week or so and it helps the mascara go on a lot more smoothly

Colossal

I like that this mascara is really black and glossy. It adds volume to my lashes, and also lengthens them although the formula I found to be quite 'wet'. I get this all over my eyelids! My lashes tend to really stick together with this mascara so you do need to use another clean mascara wand or a lash comb to comb them out, if that makes any sense?

Just another good solid mascara

this was a great mascara that provided nice lash coverage, but to be honest I didn't think it was heaps better than the other good mascaras I have tried. I would buy again but my lashes did not look colossal..... :)

Not 9x the volume, but still a good mascara

They're definitely exaggerating when they say this mascara will give your lashes 9x the volume. Still, it is an excellent basic mascara. I like the formula and it doesn't seem to clump so I'd recommend this as a great basic everyday mascara.

All mascaras lie about their performance

Its hard finding a good mascara because they all promise the world. But I love the Colossal as it does the most for my lashes than any other mascara.

It's obvious that I've got mascara on with this, it definitely doesn't look like natural lashes but thats ok, i just want the volume.

Average Mascara

I found this to be a good average mascara, tends to get clumpy quickly and very easy to apply too much. Fantastic if you use with Maybeline Falsies.

Tips: Use another mascara to lengthen lashes with this to stop clumping.
