    Love this! I usually get the smaller size at sephora, so it doesn't dry as quickly. I have a tendency to touch my eyes, so when i usually wear mascara it gets smudged. With this i don't get panda eyes AT ALL! LOVE.

    Perhaps because I received this in a box and got a sample size, I wasn't able to get the 'benefits' of a full sized wand, but in the end I found the plastic brush hard to use as it was difficult to not get too much product on the wand. It also failed my washes off with face wash test. It took my face wash, eye make up remover, some oil and it was still coming off on the towel

    I love the way this mascara grabs all my lashes and add tons of volume. The wand has very fine teeth and coats all my lashes with this amazing formula. My lashes look defined, full and long. The downside to this mascara I find is that you cannot apply more than two coats or my lashes looked sticky and stuck together. another downside is that I have greasy eyelids and I find that this mascara makes me look like a raccoon if I don't check the mirror every two or so hours and wipe off the excess mascaras under my eyes.

    This is by far the best mascara I have ever tried, and I consider myself to be a bit of a mascara guru. I already have long lashes, so it's my favourite feature to play up when I'm doing my makeup. This mascara really does what it claims to -- it thickens and lengthens lashes soooo well, to the point where strangers have stopped to compliment me on my lashes and ask if I'm wearing fakes! The wand is great for separating lashes, and I find that clumping is at a minimum when I wear this. I do flnd that once in awhile it flakes a tiny bit (especially if I'm rubbing my eyes while wearing it) but it's easily fixed. The price is pretty expensive, but I do find that I'm getting what I pay for when I purchase this mascara! It is definitely on the more difficult and messy side when it's time to remove it, but I find that wetting my face and then using coconut oil around the eye area always does the trick. Since I try to keep my cosmetic purchases as cruelty free and natural as possible, I also really wish that Benefit would stop testing on animals (I recently found out that they do) but until I find a more natural formula that compares to this, I will likely repurchase this because I absolutely love how it makes my eyelashes look.

    I first got this mascara as a gift and I seriously LOVED it! I like my lashes to look clean, clump-free and lengthened., so i was excited to try it. It lasted all day on my eyes, and came off easily with Vaseline at night. I repurchased this once, then realized that $30 was a bit too much for me to drop on mascara every month or so, but if you are willing to pay that price than i DEFINITELY recommend it!

    I really like this mascara! It does flake a little bit, but only at the end of the day. It makes your lashes look incredible and feels light at the same time. The brush has a tip to separate every lash and works well.

    applies nicely to lashes; also separates lashes very well; no clumping (which is very important when applying mascara) and the brush is easy to handle for lower lash application. Great product!

    I really find this to be a great mascara for me. I've tried a lot of brands, but this really works well. I don't find it clumpy and I like that I can layer it to get the effect I want! Another awesome Benefit product!

    Well it accually does lift your eyelashes. Not a huge amount but there is a difference. Has a mod to thick coverage. Not a light weight mascara you can feel it on you lashes and diffinitely see the difference

    OMG! I absolutely LOVE this product! The proof is in the name, this mascara makes it look like I have on false eyelashes! Every time I have this mascara on I always get complements left and right. They all ask the same thing " Are you wearing false lashes?" And obviously I tell them "no" and I say its a Benefit mascara called
    "They're Real". I just love this product so much I have like 2 more extra back ups!!
