Maybelline The Colossal Big Shot Mascara Review

Bought this expecting a great mascara but was disappointed. The wand is quite large and the mascara went on clumpy and colour was way too dark for me. I use another Maybelline mascara product which is better to apply and a nice brown colour which suits my colouring better

I wasn't overly surprised by the quality of this mascara based on its price as it was a cheaper option. I found it to be clumpy/spider looking. Was not pleased with the end result or feel it had on my lashes

Sadly, I was disappointed with this mascara. It clumped ++ and I needed to essentially clean the wand off before I could use it. It also flaked and rubbed under my eyes I wont buy it again and stick with my old Maybelline pink mascara.

I am usually a Maybelline stan but this left me disappointed. I found the product to not be of the same high quality I'm used to from Maybelline. The mascara left my lashes clumpy and heavy. It was not easy to apply as I found the consistency to be quite a lot thicker than other mascaras. It took a while to dry and do I got little black dots just under my eyebrows from where my lashes had touched my skin while I blinked. I had already applied my eye make and mascara was last so was pretty annoyed to have to fix that up. When it did dry, I found it to be clumpy and hard. It didn't wash off particularly easily either, leaving me with big dark circles when I woke up. So sad to say that all as usually I find Maybelline to be of excellent quality, rivaling many other more expensive brands.

I didn’t like this mascara. The wand was too big for my personal preference and didn’t apply evenly. I found it felt way too heavy on my lashes and unlike my preferred mascara I noticed I was wearing this one from its heavy formula.

I was very excited about this mascara when I first opened it, but unfortunately was a little disappointed.

The brush is straight so no curves but the product comes out very thick and clumpy when applied to the eyelashes. There is a lot of product that comes out on the brush but almost too much that I have been using a different mascara wand but in the Maybelline The Colossal to stop the clumpiness.

It does add volume from the tip to root but too much that it gives that ‘spider’ mascara look.

Will keep looking for my next fave mascara!

I have no idea why this product is rated well for me it didn't do much at all I had to apply multiple brushing action and then it still didn't deliver I think this is very average and for the price it isn't worth it. The design is fine brightly coloured but I don't get the squiggly base for the handle. For a Maybelline mascara this didn't impress on results would not re purchase. Perhaps I got a dud or my application technique is different to everyone else? It just didn't do it for me. I want long lashes and this is a volume mascara but even so I wanted to try it seeing as it's rated well. One good thing is it seems to wear well and hasn't made my lashes feel dry. I experienced no itching either

I have very straight eyelashes that are short and sparse so I need a lot of help with my lashes and it’s hard to find mascara that I fall in love with. This was pretty average in my opinion. The product it self was nice and wasn’t too clumpy for me but the wand I didn’t really like as I prefer a curved brush rather than something like this one. The brush itself is also quite big and chunky for my eyes and eyelashes so I really struggled to keep it off my eyelids and it was basically impossible for me to apply on my lower lash as they are super short.

I have mixed feelings about this mascara. Which I will get to. I received the shade blackest black in the washable version. Firstly the packaging is plastic and gold. A bit blingy but not offensive. The brush end is terrible, it was so thick and full of mascara that the bristles had all clumped together. I had to swipe so much mascara off onto the rim that it made quite a mess and when I applied it, it just clumped all my eyelashes together. I decided to give it another go with another mascara brush as I did like the formula. The mascara wears well and doesn't flake off after a full day wear. It gave some volume but definitely not colossal volume in one coat. I liked how easy it was to remove with just my cleanser.   Apart from brush it's not a bad mascara just not another great mascara like Maybelline great lash.
