    This is the mascara i use everyday, and i love it! It works well to get that dark, dramatic volume look after applying a few coats. Its not the best at length, but a top coat of Covergirl LashBlast fixes that! The price is about normal for a luxe mascara. I would compare it to Dior Diorshow in its effect to lashes, but without the flowery scent that Dior has and a bit less waxy. The only downside i can think of is it sometimes tends to dry out fast.

    Gave me length but not much volume. It goes on very black and I like the big brush. I agree that it gets a bit flaky later in the day. Overall, it's an above average mascara but won't be buying again due to the higher price tag.

    This is a tough call for me. I love the way this mascara goes on, and how it looks. At first. And then it starts to flake and smudge. I have this in black and in plum, and I end up looking like I've been caught in a coal storm when I wear the black. The flakes are really too much for me. Sad really... 'cause it starts off so well.

    The big brush gives great volume to my lashes. There's no flaking and it comes off very easily without breaking my lashes.

    I love this mascara! It is true Black and it gives great volume and definition. I especially like the big brush and bristles. It sometimes clumps my eyelashes, but there's no flaking. Also, it smudges onto my lower lid sometimes.

    You get a big brush, that's great for coverage, smooth and creamy mascara, that's long lasting! Very minimal smudging, and no flaking. While there wasn't this huge volume to it, I felt it was a very good quality mascara!

    I bought this mascara at Shoppers Drug Mart, in the beauty boutique. It was more expensive than I would normally like to pay for mascara, but I was trying to reach a certain amount to recieve a gift with purchase, so I thought I would give it a try.

    First impressions of the product were very good. I like that the packaging is very simple, no plastic, just a cardboard box, which made it easy to get into (no struggle = happy girl)

    I was slightly skeptical of the waterproof factor of this mascara, as I had heard good things about the non-waterproof version, and my experiences in the past with various waterproof mascaras hadn't always been great. I was completely blown away by the effectiveness of this waterproof mascara - it really did last!! I would feel comfortable putting it on then watching any Nicholas Sparks movie, and just letting the waterworks go!

    This product has also done a great job of thickening my eyelashes, which I love! I recommend this product, but as I said, its a little more of a splurge than I would normally be looking for in a mascara.

    Great product. A bit pricey though for a mascara.

    One word: LOVE!

    I stuck to drugstore brand mascara as a teenager because a) those were the only brands available and b) they were inexpensive. But I had to be very careful when I swiped it on in the morning-- wipe the excess (what a waste!) liquid off of the brush, and apply carefully. It still clumped.

    Benefit, though expensive (a $19 tube lasts me about 6 weeks), has a great mascara in their BadGal product. Applied to the top lashes, I had the full look of (almost!) fake lashes. Applying throughout the day wasn't a problem, it felt like I was putting it on bare lashes every time. Soft (not clumpy!) to the touch. I still can't get enough of it.

    The only thing I have a slight problem with, is because its a light product, it tends to flake around my eyes. So if you are OK stealing away a moment or two during the day to touch up your eyes, you're going to have beautiful eyes from morning 'till night.

    This is the best mascara I've ever used! I have long and heavy lashes and most mascaras go on thick and weighs my lashes down. The formula in this ones is so light and as soon as you put it on you can feel the difference in quality. The brush is so full and plump that it coats every lash and does it evenly (almost no flakes/clumps) and non-sticky! The price is quite expensive though.
