Not sure about the "measurable extensions"

It's a nice affordable mascara but I didn't notice a difference in the length of my lashes, like the product states that it will give. It's a nice fine mascara that goes on clean and the wand is great for separating the lashes - so for those reasons instead, I would use it again. The one-by-one is however still my favourite Maybelline mascara to date.

illegal lengths??

Great packaging, applicator brush is ok,

this product was ok but a bit of a let down compared to other maybelline products i have used.

The fibers flake off and either fall on my face and or go in my eye and found had to apply quite a bit of product to get desired effect.

I found the formula quite dry and not long after first opening the product inside was very dry and crumbly also.

given how many other great products maybelline has i would not recommend or repurchase this mascara

Temporary illegal lengths

When I first apply this mascara, I absolutely love it!! It thickens my lashes and really does lengthen them! But this effect only lasts for about 20 minutes, before the lengthened lashes start to flake. I am then left with my normal lashes looking super thick and spidery, which I don't particularly like. If the length was long-lasting I would love this mascara. The packaging is nice and the scent isn't too strong which I like. I would not buy again because of the flaking effect it has.

Maybelline illegal lengths

I found this mascara to be OK , it lengthened my lashes nicely as I have very short straight lashes but the formula was quite dry after only a few uses. When applied to my lashes it gave me thicker lashes slightly clumpy , which is fine because I prefer that look as my natural lashes look non-existent.

What I didn't enjoy is The mascara fibres that would often rub off and smudge around my eye, not a nice look.

Overall I would but not purchase it again

Bit of a hit or miss I think!

I purchased this mascara when it first came out and I was not a huge fan! I curl my lashes as they quite long but really flat and as soon as I applied this mascara they were flat again! Almost as if the mascara was so heavy my lashes couldn't handle it!

It didn't give me any extra length, and with a name like illegal lengths you would want to hope it did right! It also dried out really fast!

I wouldn't recommend this mascara unless you are just after something to give your lashes some colour, that's about all it offers unfortunately! Although it does have a nice wand!

Nothing illegal about this one

I'm a big fan of Maybelline mascaras. I loathe to pay a lot of money for mascara as it's a product that's supposed to be replaced every few months. I find the problem with new mascaras is there is always too much product on the wand which I then have to wipe off. Next follows that golden period of time when the consistency is just right, before they start getting a bit old and clumpy. Unfortunately the golden period was far too short on this one. The fibres in this mascara left my eyelashes liking dry and flakey and prone to fall out. This far outweighs any length that the fibres add.

I do like the slim shape of the packaging and the tube is easy to grip and open. The brush is quite feathery. If this is the effect you like, then this, along with the fibres will make it a good mascara for you. I also like that the top of the wand is flat so that you could stand it up on its end when you are cleaning up any clumps (which there will be)

I certainly didn't achieve any illegal lengths with this mascara. I would definitely buy Maybelline mascara again but it won't be this one.

Tips: Good if you like feathery lashes
