    I broke down and purchased this mascara months ago after hearing nothing but great things. I purchased the full size mascara with a bonus travel size one (comes with me everywhere) and WOW - what an amazing mascara!

    Just the right amount of product goes on to the brush, and it adds so much volume and definition to my lashes. Lasts all day & never fails to disappoint.

    Highly recommend!

    sephora gave this one too me as a free gift on my birthday and it only come in sample size. but the first time i used it, it was love at first sight! i fell in love with my lashes... now i know why the name is like that cause if you wear this, it looks like you are wearing falsies. :) willn probably purchase the full size whenever it fits on my budget. a little bit pricey but it's worth it!

    This mascara is great. It doesn't clump nor does it weigh down my lashes. I really like how it lengthens my eyelashes and its also easy to remove. The only downside is its a bit on the pricey side.

    I would be lying if I said I didn't love this mascara! It is a little pricey but it is total worth it for how great your lashes look after you put it on. The only problem I found with it is that it tends to be hard to get off. Once it's in it's on!

    Love this product. I use it every day. Super long lasting (this is also my only bad point on it...doesn't always come off fully). Makes my sparse lashes look great. Totally worth purchasing.

    I really wanted to love this mascara because I have the most scrawny eyelashes, but this didn't do much for me. It doesn't hold a curl, and if you try to add more coats it doesn't build volume, but rather just turns into a big clumpy mess. Also, depending on your perspective, it's super longwearing which could be a pro or con - it's terrible to remove at the end of the day but it stays on well!

    Does what it advertises. If you're not careful with the tip of the brush it could cause unnecessary clumps in your lashes. Otherwise great mascara!

    My favorite thing about this mascara is that it goes on smoothly, no clumps. I don't need to put on that many layers which is nice. It goes on nice and dark. It gives great length. It gives ok volume. I really like this mascara and would buy again.

    This is probably my only holy grail product of all time. I like a lot of beauty products, but this is always my #1 go to. I can’t ever imagine buying anything else and I’ve repurchased this so many times I can’t even count. This is the blackest, most amazing mascara. You have to trust me when I say just try it out, you will never go back to your old one. Great formula, amazing brush, fair price ($23). The other day I brought my mother to Sephora to pick up a couple makeup items and this of course was one of them. One of the sales men was there and had asked me casually what I was planning on purchasing. I replied “Well, only the best mascara of all time, ever.” He laughed and gave me a sample of the Dior “Diorshow” mascara. Well, guess which one is still my favorite? Seriously there is NO comparison. Best. Mascara. Ever.

    I am a girl who has always had trouble finding a mascara that not only makes my blonde lashes dark and thick, but also stays on all day. I heard great things about Benefit They're Real mascara so I purchased a tube. I have to say, this mascara is a miracle! The brush is made of plastic with a handy little knob at the end to reach tiny inner lashes. The formula is dark black and does not clump at all. This mascara makes my lashes very long and thick, people have asked me if I'm wearing false eyelashes. The best part of Benefit They're Real mascara is that it does not smudge or flake all day. My lashes look the same at night as they do in the morning. The only downside is the mascara can take a liitle effort to remove, but that is a small price to pay for fabulous lashes! This is the only mascara I will ever need again!
