I found this ok, although the longer I used it, it seemed to dry out and be quite clumpy. I didn't end up using the whole thing, as it got too frustrating. It did give good curl, length and volume though.
Tips: Running an eyelash comb through when mascara is wet helps with clumping.
I got this mascara at a big bucket sale so at a good price figured it was worth a try. I really like the flexibility of the applicator brush. I think, if you are not used to a flexible brush it may feel strange. But I find it applies well and the mousse/gel formula glides on better with full coverage of your lash. The colour is very black and dries super fast. It isn't at all brittle and I have had no problems with flakiness.
Tips: Good for when you are rushed and need dry lashes pronto!
It does work and make your lashes long, but it doesn't last that long and the actual mascara itself doesn't last long either but I guess mascara isn't supposed last super long so it's a good product!
Tips: Use a plastic spoon under the bottom lashes, and a card for the top lashes so you don't get any mascara on your skin :)
I decided to try this as I love Maybelline mascaras, however this one was not so great. When I started using it there was just so much mascara on the brush each time it was ridiculous, I'd have to wipe some off before using it each time. Then when I put it on it would go really clumpy. I use a different mascara brush to even it all out.
Now that I've been using it for awhile it seems to have calmed down a bit. It gives a really nice finish and I find it lengthens my lashes really nicely and thickens them. I still often use a different brush just to declump a little bit.
It does come off easily which can be a bonus.
So not my favourite Maybelline mascara.
This is the first time I've tried a gel-mousse mascara. I was pleasantly surprised by it is but on saying that it doesn't seem to dry very quickly and I invariably end up with some on my eye lid which is somewhat frustrating.
I'm not too impressed with the bendy wand either, I prefer a more solid wand that offers more control.
It does tend to clog as well, and too much is on the brush when you extract it. I found that wiping some it off the very end helps though. It does tend to clump my lashes together.
I don't think I will be buying this product again. Maybe they need to do a bit more R & D before making the claims that they do, and improve the product design and strength of the wand.
Tips: Try other mascaras before buying this one, it's ok but it's not quite what I was looking for.
I used this Mascara and found it took a few coats to get the coverage I needed for my lashes. I wouldn't say it is a bad product, but it didn't add any more volume to my lashes. I wouldn't go out of my way to get this product again.
This mascara was pretty good, it gave my eyelashes wicked volume which is great, but only after I'd curled my eyelashes first. The cons outweigh the pros with this mascara tho because one, I have to curl my eyelashes before use (sometimes I'm in a rush and just want to whip some on, but I can't) and two, it smudges and stains so badly if you accidently wipe your eyes or, yaknow, CRY. Raccoon eyes are not pretty and occur too easily with this mascara. And with all maybelline mascraras i think tbh
Tips: Don't use this is you are really active (as in sports) or if you are outdoors alot as sweat and any other form of moisture make this stuff RUN
This product is 'average'. Not the best, not the worst. It seems to add some fullness, but wheres the length? wheres the curl? Good for a day mascara, but not for a night out. Application of the mascara is quite difficult due to the bendy brush. Honestly, very hard to apply! Make the most of what you have - I curl my eye lashes as well. I would not get again. I want a product that has it all. This product doesn't.
Tips: If you apply this mascara carefully, whilst moving your hand side ways as you move down your eye, it makes for best application.
I have short lashes so change mascara often to try and find one that I enjoy. This is pretty good although the bendy wand takes a bit of getting used too and it often has little fibres/clumps in it. I can't seem to get it to apply nicely on my inner corner lashes. Not the best for doing multiple coats as it gets a bit clumpy/flaky. I hate how hard it is to remove ... Major panda eyes!!
Tips: Use eye makeup remover as a normal cleanser won't get it off.
