I’ve used this for a good while now and it’s definately a go to for me although my friend who specialises in lashes has recently said how waterproof mascara can really dry your eyelashes out so I might have to have a break. It’s a good consistency and goes on nicely with no clumps. I find the brush is nice and seperates my lashes to coat each one. It is hard to get off but that’s what you want isn’t it. No panda eyes here.

Great length
I recently received this along with some other goodies from BR and I love it! Great length, waterproof and the brush is handy for getting in the inner and outer corners of your eyelashes :)

I honestly didn't have huge expectations for this mascara, as I've been underwhelmed by Maybelline mascaras in the past -usually too watery, clumpy and smudgy for me. However this has been a pleasant surprise and is a mascara I'm very happy to use.
The tube is quite chunky but easy to unscrew and grip, so I have no complaints there. I like the brush, which is a fairly average size with medium length bristles. I appreciate that it doesn't pick up too much excess product, which I find is a common problem amongst different mascara tube designs.
With one coat of application I get decent length and some volume. A second coat starts to get a bit clumpy, but adds a lot of volume. The formula is not too watery, so it can be built up to a certain extent.
The waterproof aspect has been very reliable for me so far, and a huge bonus is that it holds a curl very well. The longest I've worn it is probably 14 hours, but I experienced no flaking, smudging or discomfort. Very impressed with the longevity.
Overall, I'm happy to be using this mascara and think it's a great waterproof option. If I could change anything it would be to have a little more volume without clumping, but it is certainly a sturdy and reliable everyday mascara.
Tips: Definitely use an oil-based remover as micellar water or facial wipes won't cut it. Coconut oil on a cotton pad is a great option!
