I was so excited to buy this as it's the only mascara from Maybelline I don't own. I love every single one of Maybelline mascaras until I tried this one. For a person who has pathetically short eyelashes like myself, I thought "Mega Plush" was going to give me huge bold, lashes. I was wrong, t did absolutely nothing for me.
The brush has a flexible tip, which I found difficult to control as it's not steady. It gets hardly any product on the brush, which I thought was a good thing, until I tried to put it on. It looked like I wasn’t wearing an mascara at all. It didn't lengthen, thicken, darken - nothing. It did nothing. In an attempt to make the mascara look better, I piled on a second coat, only to have my lashes stick together - and almost impossible to separate. I probably wouldn’t even recommend it for the purpose of the “no makeup makeup look”. It dries like powder, and after a couple hours almost literally falls off, which consequently leaves black residue, making my dark under eye circles even worse.
It was easy to get off, no make up remover needed, but that was probably because there was hardly any mascara on my lashes in the first place.
Overall, thoroughly disappointed. I just spent all that money for a mascara that might as well not exist.
This is my go to mascara when I'm going for a natural/no make up look, it gives me everything I need without being too over the top. I find it best for lengthening and I really love the flexibility of the brush.
Tips: Don't use on your bottom lashes, this one is pretty messy :)
