Maybelline Volum' Express the Colossal Review

Surprised to read so many amazing reviews of this product! Personally I didn't really like it. From the name, I was expecting quite dramatic lashes, but I found it didn't really lengthen or thicken much at all in comparison to other mascaras i have, which are definitely things most of us look for in a mascara. Was just a bit non descript for me! However I do like the brush size and shape and a pro would be that it doesn't clump up or give you those horrid, stuck together lashes. It's ok but nothing special!

Kinda clumpy, very thick. Quite voluminous, but can be overdone very very easy. True black. Dries very quickly if you dont screw the top super tight

Ive had this mascara for two weeks now and am absolutely in love. I use this by it self or with a mix of other maybelline mascaras it is amazing and easy to apply. I find it comes off really easy I dont have the waterproof one so thats probably why. Only thing I dislike about this mascara is the smell, smells a little like paint to me but once its on the smell is gone so thats alright :)

Works really well as i hate when I smudge my mascara! It stays on my lashes very well and i don't have to worry when I rub my eyes. Even though it is a pain to take off, it is all worth it to have long lasting mascara that lasts the day!

I got this mascara for my birthday and it is so good. It doesnt smear everywhere and it makes your eyes look soo pretty

I made the mistake of buying the waterproof version of the mascara. While the mascara itself is good - easy to apply, creates good volume and length in the lashes - it was impossible to remove. I would have to scrub my eyes a lot at night to take off the mascara, whcih would leave them irritated by the next morning. It was virtually impossible to remove all of the mascara in this way, so leftover bits added to the irritation. Once I had a shower and washed my face some more, my cheeks would then be stained with the leftovers, and they had to be scrubbed too. I understand it does what it says - it does create colossal lashes, and the waterproofing is very effective, it is just not an experience I would like to go through again!

I love this Mascara it has no clumps and is so easy to apply!!! Looks great and I don't know what i'd do without it.

I have thin lashes that need a lot of volume. This stuff is amazing. It gave me more volume, maybe not as much as those who naturally have thicker lashes but for me they were thicker.

It was easy to apply, it didn't clump like some others do. This is the one mascara I always go back to or look for in make up clearance stores.

Love this mascara, no clumps easy to apply and thickens up my lashes nicely without looking like I have to much make up on

I really loved this mascara, although not as much as the Falsies. It's a dryer formula which I love and doesn't clump, even after 2+ coats! Loved the brush too.
