Maybelline The Colossal Cat's Eyes

This mascara separated my lashes, made them very black and super long! I've had this mascara for a while and the formula is still very watery, not think and chunky at all. This mascara has a wand that I love! I bought mine in waterproof, and it is truly waterproof! The only bad thing is that it is so hard to get off!

colossal cat eyes

I bought this mascara purely because of the packaging. i love the cute leopard type print on the tube. The wand is small which I like because this means it is a lot easier to wiggle around and get mascara on every lash. This mascara is not clumpy at all and makes my lashes very long! With this I found that I get next to no volume and an eyelash curler is a must! Two coats of this mascara is all I need for long lashes, and with the small wand, I can get right into my inner and outer lashes. The only downside to the mascara that really annoys me is that it flakes during the day and is not wearable for long. The curl from the eyelash curler doesn't last long either and my lashes end up looking flat, while mascara is flaking all over my eyes. Using a coat of waterproof mascara helps prevent this, and if I remember I will usually pop waterproof mascara over top after my second coat of the colossal cat eyes mascara. I still use this mascara everyday as I do still really like it, but after it runs out I think I will look fot another one.

Colossal cat eyes

I purchashed this mascara after hearing a friend rave about it. I was not disappointed! Some people find the curved wand off-putting or annoying but I love it. It makes it sooo easy to apply to all of your lashes, it grabs onto all of them and separates the lashes nicely. The formula is quite thin so it doesnt clump easy yet its thick enough to give plenty of volume and length. The only problem I have with it is how difficult it is to remove. I have the waterproof one and I use an avon makeup remover but it has no effect, it just wont budge! Hence why even though I love the mascara I dont often reach for it as its such a struggle to remove it without pulling lashes out and irritating my eye area. Perhaps its just time to invest in a new makeup remover, that may do the trick?

Good mascara

I like the shape of the brush, it makes it easy to apply without getting it on your skin but I didn't find that it gave the amount of volume I was expecting. I like maybelline mascaras and would use again for everyday use but not to give dramatic or bold effects.

Good for lower lashes

When used on the top eyelashes I find it is an average mascara but when used on the lower lashes it's great! The mascara wand is thin and curved to fit the shape of the eye so it can get to the root of the lashes nicely. It gives great length but not a lot of volume

Good for a clearance buy

Got this at Countdown on clearance, it's hard to pass up a mascara from a well known brand at $6.99. The packaging is a pretty standard shape, the colour makes it really stick out though. I like the wand - it has a good shape. I don't like the smell of the product, it has a strong fragrance that just seems odd for a mascara. The product itself went on really well the first few times, and then seemed to clump up a little on the wand. Wiping it on the edge seems enough to keep it going though. It lasts well and builds up to a dramatic effect. Some mascaras sting my eyes, but I didn't have a problem with this one. The only thing I found a bit frustrating is towards the end of the day it starts to flake and when that gets in my eye it definitely stings. So for a shorter period, a night out say it is well worth it. I'm not sure if its the one I would pick at full price though.

Good but not great

I like this mascara. The wand is excellent, and the actual product is good, no strong smell. The only issue I had was with the lasting time. It seemed to go on great in the morning and then I'd get to about midday and my lashes would look flat and clumpy. Overall a good product but definitely not long lasting.

I have been using Maybeline for years!

I personally havent tried many brands of mascara, if I remember correctly its only been a few Maybeline ones, a Loreal one and a MaxFactor one. I have been quite happy with the Maybeline range as I fall back to it everytime and I am currently using this one in conjunction with another at the moment and Im very happy with the results!

I find that this one, as well as the Collosal Volumizing one is great for creating plenty of volume in the lashes, it also makes your lashes nice and dark and I find that it creates great length to every individual lash.

One thing I find with this particualr mascara though is that the bristles on the comb can be a little bit rough if you are quite forcefull with the application because the bristles are not rubber they are more like the brisltes on a hairbrush or a teasing brush which I find has quite a scratchy feel to them. But the shape of the comb itself is great as it helps to push the lashes up creating a more "opened look" to your eyes.

I do find that with all the Maybeline mascaras I have tried they are quite watery at first, but once you have used them a couple of times it drys out to a better consistantcy. Just be mindful of this and persist with it :)

Tips: If you are new to using mascara be sure to take your time with it because at first your eye area is sensitve as mascara itself is quite a foreign thing for the eyes to have to handle. Also dont be suprised if you do poke yourself in the eye once, twice or maybe a few times!

Once you gain confidence with your technique start riggling the comb at the base of the lashes before sweeping it up towards the tips. This will help create volume at the base which will give the appearance of more lashes. Make sure you apply mascara ontop as well as underneath the lashes, this ensures that you get maximun coverage but be sure to finsh off underneath the lashes NOT on top. Last but not least (unfortunately this is what I find a lot of girls doing) is avoid pumping the comb in and out of the tube 5 to 10 times before you even use it. There is no need for you to do this, it is just increasing a bigger level of oxygen going into the tube and drying out the product sooner than what it usually would.

Great Mascara

The packaging is what drew me to this mascara in the first place, and im glad it did. I love it. The wand is amazing, its curved which makes it easier to apply and actually helps keep the curl in your eyelashes. It doesn't clump and will stay on all day. Its also reasonably priced. Would 100% recommend.
