    This mascara does wonders for volume on any lash without getting clumpy. I used it once or twice before but didn't have the waterproof version until now. I liked what it did for my eyes but found that it would bleed a little down onto my face. Using the water proof version was a much better experience for me, there was no bleeding and you could barely tell I had mascara on.

    If you're every going to splurge on ANYTHING for your face, this is the product to do it on. Usually around 25-30$, lasts ALL DAY, gives AMAZING lift!

    I picked up the travel size version of this mascara from Sephora, which is half the price for the same amount of product. The wand size is also the same as the full-size version and is a full-on wand. This mascara is made to give volume, not length. The formula is very light and I feel like I'm not wearing anything on my lashes at all. Plus it's buildable without getting clumpy. It's great as an everyday mascara but I wouldn't recommend buying the full size version when the travel size has the same amount of product for half the amount.

    The cons to this mascara are the following:
    - It only comes in black
    - It holds a curl, but not very well
    - Not paraben-free

    While I usually love Benefit's products, this mascara didn't wow me. It's not a bad mascara, but I wouldn't seek this out to purchase. The brush is large and I prefer smaller brushes that give length and separation, but this adds more volume than length. If you get on well with larger mascara brushes and are looking more for volume than anything, give this a shot.

    Well...First of all I must say I love Benefit. Even more. I adore it.
    Unfortunately, Bad gal makes me sad. I received a nice kit with a little one for my birthday. Still don't know if this is the problem of a quality or the product was not new, but it went dry really soon. The quality was never what I expected from Benefit. Such a prosperous and successful company produces great cosmetics, but bad gal is definitely not the best.
    Sorry.

    This mascara is awesome for creating fullness and volume to the lashes; however, I would not recommend using it for definition or lash separation. Also, if you curl your lashes beforehand and apply this mascara, your lashes will lose some curl. This is probably due to the brush and mascara being so thick that it weighs the lashes down. When I put my false lashes on and sweep this through, it works really good and adds that oomph my falsies need! Benefit BADGal is an overall great product... just depends on what you're using it for and the look you are trying to achieve!

    What I like most about this mascara is the size of the brush, which I think is key.
    If you're looking for a little more drama in your eyelashes but don't want to spend a fortune to get it, this is the mascara for you.
    The brush may get some getting use to, but once you do, you'll see that it's very effective for creating dramatic lashes!

    I have tried many mascaras but Benefit Badgal is by far the best I have ever tried. It's a bit pricey but it's well worth the extra money since it is the most fabulous mascara I have ever tried.

    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.
