Maybelline Great Lash Mascara Review

I liked at first how this went on and with really light coloured eyelashes it was a distinct improvement but unfortunately I made a bit of a mess and lashes became rather good friends with each other

I don't get what all the fuss is about. There are some way better drugstore mascaras out there like the maybelline falsies, clump crusher, max factor false lash effect etc. This one was kind of clumpy and I didn't really see anything special about it.

This is about as basic as it gets when it comes to mascara. It's always lauded as the world's favourite mascara but all that says to me is that there are a lot of women out there who are settling for less-than-ideal lashes if they're using this!

The brush is very basic and does nothing to separate or curl lashes. The formula is... well it makes your lashes black, I'll give it that. It doesn't lengthen or add volume, and my lashes are already black, so it's a bit of a waste of time.

It's a good first mascara, but it does not give you volume or length, so it does not create attention to your eyes. I had a bit of clumping but it's not to bad, I think this mascara would be good for young girls who don't need dramatic make up and lashes, so it's rather average.

Not my favourite mascara - dries quite solidly and can clump quite a lot, so both of these together can be problematic!

I have used this mascara on different occasions and I have decided it's not for me. I have medium length eyelashes that aren't that thick and found that I need 2-3 coats to get the desired length and thickness. In saying that it doesn't clump like some of the thickening mascaras.

Such an overrated mascara - I've read numerous reviews in magazines also & don't understand what the fuss is all about .. I found it clumpy & barely volumized my lashes. Would not buy again.

Like many others I was attracted to this mascara because of the colourful packaging and great price. I found that the only thing 'great' about this mascara was the price. Although it is really affordable I wouldn't be getting this mascara again. It doesn't lengthen the eyelashes that much and it smudges really easily. I found that although it says that there won't be any clumps, there were. I was not satisfied with this mascara at all.

I prefer the standard brush on this one and because of that, this was my standard mascara for years! Great black, easy to use and layer with, particularly the outer lashes, but as for wear... not so much. Its always under my eyes by the middle of the day and gives me a 'panda' effect by the end of the day, even with the waterproof type. I've since discovered better mascaras in this line.

While this mascara did an awesome job separating my lashes with little clumping it added no length and little volume. I have quite short blonde lashes so i wouldn't recommended it to anyone with similar lashes to mine. But for anyone lucky enough to be gifted with lengthy lashes with medium to full volume this is good for a boost and colour.
