This mascara did not work out for me at all and I'm not sure why so many people like it. The container does not squeeze off any of the product from the brush when you remove the brush from the container so you have to spend a minute scraping off the majority of the product. Then once you apply the product and if you have anything more than barely anything on the brush it will clump up your lashes like crazy and dry hard so you can't even brush out the clumps. It also flakes and irritates the eyes throughout the day. And any exposure to the slightest amount of moisture or humidity and this is running down your face. It's definitely not worth the $12.
