Maybelline Volum' Express Mega Plush Review

I've brought many Maybelline mascaras in the past, as they seem to make fantastic mascaras at a reasonable price. I normally use "Maybelline Falsies", but when I ran out I decided to try something new..and this was it!

The packaging comes in a funky aqua blue colour, it just looks fun and modern. I love how it's easy to spot in my makeup bag, due to the colour.

The brush of this mascara is good quality and easy to use, lots of bristles and easily glides over your lashes. It coats the lashes well and adds volume.

Another plus is that it feels lovely on my eyes. Some mascaras can sting and irritate my eyes, but not this mascara.

However the downside of this mascara is it doesn't seem to add length, like my other Maybelline mascaras do. That's the main thing I look for in a mascara, to give me long, feminine lashes. But, this mascara really didn't create the effect I wanted.

Also, I found after the end of the day this seemed to smudge slightly. I think the formula of this mascara is slightly different to other mascaras I have tried.

Overall, this is probably my least favourite mascara in the Maybelline range. I find Maybelline Falsies considerably better.

It was great to try this, but I won't be repurchasing in the future.

I brought it because the packaging appealed to me, it was a spur of the moment splurge. After using it for a couple of times, it began to grow on me and I began to like it. But I recently discovered Revlon mascara and am in love with it! I will still continue to use the Maybelline but will probably stick to Revlon from now on :)

I found the mascara good but the brush very hard to use my eye lashes arent very thick and found the brush bending made it impossible to get to the roots and since my lashes are blonde you really need to get the roots as well so I had to use a different mascara for that

I have been using this for a few weeks now and while i like it and it does the job it lacks any real volume to my lashes and i find the brush a little to bulky. Its hard to get to those tiny lashes in the corner of my eye with out getting it on my skin. The formula is a little too think i find as well. It is very dark and makes my lashes stand out more than they do naturally. I usually like Maybelline products and the colour of the packaging is lovely but I wont repurchase this to be honest and as soon as i get a different one i will stop using it.

found this mascara to be quite average, great for a natural look ideal for school which i use it for. lacks volume!

At first i liked this mascara but over time it seemed to clump my lashes and i had to use a comb to get the extra product out. Also i didn't like the bendy brush. However i did like the formula as it didn't make my lashes feel hard and it wasn't flaky.

The gorgeous packaging caught my eye. I mean, who wouldnt love the pretty baby blue and hot pink metallic tube.

The brush is quite unique in that it is sort of 3 sided.Once you have had a few tries with it I am sure you will get the hang of it.

The formula is ok...along with the design of the brush and formula you will achieve an alright kind of application . I didnt find the formula too thick so I had to apply 2 coats, which is ok if you have the time in the morning, if not with only one coat, the result was rather lackluster. I didnt find the formula clumpy which is great. There was no volume or wow factor.

It will wash off with my usual eye make up remover easily which is a real plus.

Over all, this mascara is not as amazing as other Maybelline mascaras, but for a quick application that will seperate your lashes thjs one is pretty good.

Packaging is good, a bright aqua blue, so it's easy to find in the makeup bag. Easy to hold on to, as the package is not thin and streamlined. The brush has bristles, which I prefer over silicone brushes. I apply at least two coats to get the length and definition I want, drying time is not long. The wand has an 'elbow' about halfway up, apparently this makes applying it easier, but I didn't really see how this feature was beneficial for me personally. The mascara really does last the whole day, and does not irritate the eyes, however I would have liked more of a POP from the purple colour. The purple is very dark and subtle. Comes off well at the end of the day, and I have not noticed any fall out throughout the day. A good daytime choice as the colour is not intense.

This product was very not has good as people talk it up to be. Dryer uo very fast, didn’t leave my eyelashes looking nice made them look very clumpy
