Maybelline Volum' Express the Colossal Review

Surprised to read so many amazing reviews of this product! Personally I didn't really like it. From the name, I was expecting quite dramatic lashes, but I found it didn't really lengthen or thicken much at all in comparison to other mascaras i have, which are definitely things most of us look for in a mascara. Was just a bit non descript for me! However I do like the brush size and shape and a pro would be that it doesn't clump up or give you those horrid, stuck together lashes. It's ok but nothing special!

Im really not sure about this one! Brought this a while back and really torn with the results. First time I got this out and put it on first coat was okay, nothing special. Second coat was also okay, nothing special again. At thins point I was left a bit disappointed, how many layers does a girl have to apply to get some colossal effects around here?? Next time I used this I found it to be clumpy on the second layer which was less than ideal and had to run a clean mascara brush through it to try get some out! Also still noting colossal going on maybe a bit of length but nothing remarkable. This product didn't do it for me. I don't know if it was all the hype about the product that raised my expectations but I've personally used better mascaras in this price range that have given me the length and volume that I like without the clumps.

I ordered two of these mascaras online, the full price for this item is slightly higher than what I would like to pay which is why I bought online as it saves me lots of money. I opened the first mascara a few weeks ago and have found the product does mot cling to my lashes like others I've used. Even now when I try to use this mascara, I find that I need lots and lots of coats just to give the appearance of longer and fuller lashes. I'm hoping the second mascara that I purchased with this will change my mind about this product, as the reviews I've read on here give it mostly nothing but positive feedback.

This stuff is awful it makes my eyelashes all clumpy and cakey looking. I bought this mascara reluctantly (I'm not a Maybelline fan) after hearing so many amazing reviews on blogs and YouTube.

I'm probably one of the rare few that find this mascara horrible but no matter what I do I cannot make it look good on me. When I wear it it flakes off in clumps and gets in my eye. My eyelashes look horrible with this mascara on and would not use it ever again. I really dislike the formula I find it very dry and will continue to use my Benefit They're Real and L'Oreal Carbon Black Telescopic mascaras.

I brought this mascara, thinking it would do wonders for my straight eyelashes, but all it did was leave clumps, and run after i yawned! Not happy at all, it actually discouraged me from using maybelline mascaras.

Was looking forward to trying this one when I saw it on sale at Countdown as part of the beauty sale. I wish I had read the reviews before I did.

I applied the first coat...nothing colossal went on. Tried another coat, still nothing....after about 6 coats later I did see that my lashes had some improvement with them, but definitely not what the product claimed to offer.

Not a fan!

I found this mascara dkdnt work for made my lashes stick together and clumps. Found other maybelline mascaras to work better.

I didn't like this mascara, the reason I brought it was to add volume to my already long natural lashes but all it did was stick them together, I found the wand to big and also at the end of the day when I went to wash it off it just went everywhere

Where do i even start...other than this product being ridiculously clumpy, and just making your eyelashes stick together it actually damaged them! I noticed that my eyelashes actually started to FALL OFF!! eep! They reduced in length and number and it took me a couple months after that to wait for them to grow again. Will never use again..

Tried this a few years ago and was quite excited to receive it as I had not the longest eyelashes. Thought the consistency was great and it seemed to glide on easily, no clumping or flaking. I thought it made my lashes look alot longer and then boom had a reaction to it. My eyes started feeling really itchy and sore so I quickly washed it off, it actually came off really easily aswell. What a shame as I was really liking the look but alias never tried it again.
