2 Years and Going Strong!

I have been buying Maybelline 'the Collosal', for about 2 years now. I absolutely love it! Not only is it affordable, but the scent is much more 'user friendly' than most other mascaras I have used. It smells more floral than toxic. My eyelashes are the perfect thickness, it doesn't clump (until it's 6 months old when you really should have replaced it). I hope Maybelline never stops producing the Collosal!

Tips: The waterproof is a lot harder to get off than most (it is actually waterproof) so stick with the non-waterproof unless you need it. Also, I use two coats, and do my bottom lashes when going out in the evening. Who need's false eyelashes when there is the Collosal?

Great Mascara

I have used this mascara a lot. It gives insane length, doesn't clump and separates my eye lashes well. I found personally that it didn't give as much volume as other mascaras, but I'm sure this could be improved using it in combination with another. It is great because it doesn't get all flakey when you have been wearing it for a while. I always opt for waterproof mascara, and unlike some other brands, this is well and truly waterproof.

Tips: For great results, I find it is important to start as close to the roots as possible, then move the brush out in a sort of zig zag/wiggly motion

Happy Purchase! will rebuy!

I finally know what the rage is all about!! I was so happy with this mascara (buying it after hearing so many positive things) it gave me full and thick lashes. Would use it again for sure! The brush is amazing...thin bristles so no chances of those big ugly clumps. Separates and volumises eyelashes with ease!

Tips: Do bottom lashes as well! As well as double coat for that extra length!

weird smell

i thought this mascara had a really strong, weird smell! Maybe it was just my one but it did nothing for my lashes and honestly the smell was so strong, my friend could smell it when it was on my lashes and she was about a metre away from me?!?! So I would definitely not repurchase but maybe it's just my bad experience? Definitely the smell wasn't right but even if I gmo red the smell, it did absolutely nothing for my lashes :(

Tips: I would not recommend for short stubby straight lashes like mine!!

My current Favorite!

I just LOVE this mascara! I am yet to find one I think better. Great jet black color, comes on smooth, does not look exceedingly false, and minimal clumping. Easy and gorgeous for stand out lashes for day or night.

Tips: Apply a couple of layers so your eyes really POP!

volume :)

This mascara provides a great amount of volume to your lashes and it does not clump together. i find the length of my lashes extend further with this mascara. Its great to use and easy to come off with, with soap or face wipes :)

Tips: use 2 layers

Tips: Only apply one coast or it'll clump!

Wow !!

I really loved this mascara. My eye lashes looked thicker and longer than the normally do and my eyelashes didn't stick together like I have found with other mascaras. I ususally apply a couple of coats of mascara to my eyelashes but I found with this one I only needed to use one coat and I was already noticing the difference.

I find that with a lot of other mascaras I usually end up with smudged black patches under my eyes but I did not have the same problem with this one as it stayed put throughout the day.

The best thing though is the price! It is totally affordable and readily available. My local supermarket has this so I just sneak it in with the shopping.

Tips: Looking for more volume in your eye lashes then this is definitely the product for you !

Colossal Yes

This has been my go-to mascara for ages and I have loved it. I haven't been able to find another brand that I liked as much as this. My lashes look amazing- both voluminous and longer. It applies nicely, and is hassle free to remove

Tips: It tend to clump if you try apply a second coat once
