I have literally tried over 100 mascaras and this is by far the worst smelling mascara I think I have ever smelt. It wasn't just when I was applying it or after it dried, I continued to smell it throughout the day. It was a chemical smell that I believe I should not be using around my eyes. Plus, even if it didn't smell, it didn't do justice to my lashes. Not a fan at all and I would not recommend this to anyone.

I have tried this in both regualr and waterproof. My main complaint with the regular formula is that it flakes and smudges after a few hours. My complaint with the waterproof is that it is impossible to get off. I ended up having to use baby oil to get the waterproof off, not fun at all. I do like the brush but don't think it is a stand out as a lengthening mascara.

This is the worst mascara I have ever tried. I could not wait to write a review on it, I feel that strongly about it. It takes forever to dry so it gets all over your eyes. It is runny and thin. It did not do a single thing for my lashes. It is like putting black water on them.

doesnt catch all the lashes... I have lighter ones & it was difficult to cover all of them to the base of the lash. Also flakes off easily

First, I want to start out by describing what this mascara does. For me, I only saw results with the length and separation of my lashes. There was absolutely no volume or curl produced. However, since I have naturally short, thick and curly lashes, this mascara was perfect for my needs. With only two coats I can have very long lashes. Unlike the other reviewers, I had no problems with flaking of smudging but this may be due to my different needs. The look can be either natural or glamorous depending on the other makeup applied. There are only a few drawbacks. First, the mascara seems to dry up quickly, making it necessary to spend more time applying, or investing in a new mascara. Also, there is a slight smell that seems common with Maybelline mascaras; the smell does not bother me, but it may bother others. Overall, this was the perfect lengthening mascara with very few drawbacks.

Not much to say...the cons tell all...if it didn't fall off in flakes shortly after applying the look would be perfect. Instead, beware & look closely in the mirror to keep cleaning off the debris under your eyes. Ouch!

This is the worst mascara I've ever tried. It doesn't go on easily and later there are smudges around my eyes and flakes all over under my eyes and on my cheeks. I have absolutely nothing positive to say about this mascara. I would have given it no stars but that wasn't an option.

Made my lashes really stand out. Lengthens as promised. Flaked after several hours of wear. I like it a lot more than I thought I would!

I was pleasantly surprised by this mascara. I had been using Merle Norman's Luxiva mascara but it ran out on me right before going out last night. I went up and bought this as a "need this now" decision and was actually impressed. I LOVE the way the brush is... it's very long which makes it easier to apply. I noticed that shorter brushes, I tended to hit my temple or the upper part of my cheek with the mascara when in a hurry. This is nice and long so I can hold it further from my skin. I have very thin lashes and this makes my lashes POP. People actually noticed and asked what mascara I use.

I'm still looking for that patent shine. This mascara is not all that great. It does nothing amazing to me. My lashes are naturally long and it didn't give my lashes any volume, length, or definition.
