Maybelline Volum' Express the Colossal Review

I found this mascara horrid from the beginning. It came out clumpy from the very beginning. I had to throw it out after a week because of all the clumps! Hoping I just got a dud because I was expecting great things!

I absolutely love this mascara. I find that it works well to separate and volumize my eyelashes. I work in retail and I am constantly being asked what mascara I use.

I find that unlike other mascara's this one doesn't clump and and it also stays on all day and I don't have smudge marks under my eyes. I use simple make up wipes and they take this mascara off easily.

The packaging is quite simple and the brush is really easy to use. I also find that I get out just the right amount of product each time.

I love this mascara. I only get half way through a bottle before it starts to do that clumpy thing but that doesn't put me of. Last all day but comes of easily with makeup remover. You can change the look of your lashes by using more or less coats. Can get on sale for around $15 so it is definitely value for money

Being the queen of mascaras and loving my mascaras to give me that plump and false lash look, I found this mascara to be right up my alley. Although I did apply a few coats to reach the maximum effect, I was still happy with this product.

I absolutely love this mascara. I have long lashes and one side is thicker than the other. Some mascarsas acentuate this however this one evens them out. I love the brush too, it add the product evenly and doesn't leave any lumps or stick my lashes together.

I have read the others' reviews and wonder "what's wrong with me?" because I have found this a clumsy product. The container is quite large and the results I get are a bit hit and miss. Possibly it's because I wear glasses and cannot see my lashes clearly, but with the coarser container and brush there can need to be a clean up or patch up later! However, I shall persevere, I only purchased it recently, and hope things improve.

Love it! Gives a smoky effect, I just add some dark black eyeliner to the right line and smoke it out with some black shadow but my only dislike about this awesome mascara is that it drys out in a couple of months, but it's cheap and one of my favourite drugstore just wish it didint dry out so fast

This mascara is fantastic for the first two weeks. It separates the lashes. Makes them look fuller and looks gorgeous. After two weeks though the mascara goes clumpy and practically is a throw away.

I have now had this mascara for approx 18 months. I did give it a rest for many months but have recently gone back to it & am very happy I did. First I found the smell off putting - to me it smells like the hayfever medicine of my child hood (aka torture). However, getting over my child hood scars was important, as the application is great, easy & only rarely do I have issues of it going AWOL. I mostly apply only one coat, as seldom is a second coat required.

I've tried a couple of other mascaras since finding this one but, I keep coming back to Colossal. Although it can clump when applying extra coats, it definitely gives lashes more length and volume. When it gets older you can create a natural look with one coat or build it up for a false lash look. I will probably continue to use this mascara for years to come.
