    Glad I didn't purchase the full-size

    I received this product in a beauty advent calendar, I'm so glad I didn't buy a full-size as in my opinion it's a big let down for Benefit. It clumped my lashes together and made my lashes stick out straight, even with a curler. The only thing I like about this mascara is it's true black and the wand is great for bottom lashes. The box claims that 94% of people are that saw dramatic length and volume, 90% saw base-to-tip curl, 94% saw visible lift and 100% saw long wearing results. They surveyed 31 women after 2 weeks of use but I didn't see any of these things.
    I would not recommend this product.

    Love this product

    My friend introduced me to this mascara and I can't go a day without it! I use to use a L'oreal mascara before but I'm so glad this came into my life! It makes my lashes look longer with just one coat but I usually put 2 coats. I highly recommend this product!

    All day mascara

    This is the best mascara i have ever used. Goes on smoothly, no clumping and stays put all day long. Lashes look longer and thicker. I love it. Not too expensive but not the cheapest. Is so good that you have to use a good eye make up remover to get it off your lashes. Perfect for a big night out and for work.

    The blackest black

    I love this mascara. It stays put all day and is not flakey. The black is extremely pigmented. My only complaint is the brush, I wish it had more bristles.

    Probably would be better on people with long eyelashes

    I have short, sparse, and thin asian lashes. I always am looking for mascara that makes my eyelashes noticable in photos. So I asked my friend who is known for having beautiful voluminous lashes what she recommended. She recommended Benefit Cosmetics They're Real!
    My hopes were high, and I definitely paid a pretty penny for it 33 CAD. Unfortunately my hopes were dashed, and the mascara did not deliver. It was mediocre, but for 33 bucks, and such high praise I expected more. The brush was spiky and painful, and my lashes wern't lengthened in the slightest. Overall I was just disappointed. Their were some things I liked about the mascara though, it was pretty flake and smudge resistant, and it even held its own during a intense workout session. The formula didn't clump, and dried quickly. Overall I would suggest that people who have naturally thick and long lashes would probably have a better time with this mascara then I did.

    Probably good for people with naturally nice eyelashes

    I have sparse, short, and thin asian eyelashes. What I was looking for was a mascara that would lengthen my lashes, and give them some volume. So when I asked my friend what mascaras she recommended she told me this one. I had high hopes, I mean it was 33 CAD. My hopes were soon shattered though. My eyelashes barely changed, I guess the reason why it looked so good on my friend was because she already had long eyelashes. On the plus side it lasted all day with minimum flaking, and it lasted through a good workout session. So overall if you already have nice eyelashes I would definitely say to try out this mascara, but to all my fellow short lashed people I would suggest to keep looking.

    Love this mascara! Benefit they’re real!

    This mascara makes my lashes look super long - I always get people asking who’s done my lashes! Definitely wouldn’t use any other mascara. This is my absolute go-to lash product!

    Use this everyday

    Honestly, I’ve been using this product for years and it’s the best mascara I’ve ever used. Doesn’t clump and my lashes look extra long. Would recommend!

    Not bad

    I absolutely love the brush on this mascara. I have bought it a couple of times. Both times the same thing. It's VERY hard to get off! I'm tugging and trying to get it off. I wouldn't recommend this for the simple fact it's terrible to remove. If it was easier to get off, I would give it 5 stars and buy it again. I feel almost like you can never get it off completely.

    Best mascara for great lashes

    I got this on sale a few years ago and I have never looked back!Its perfect , it ads volume while lengthening .It is a bit pricey but you will use it for a few good months and it will always deliver .Its easy to take off at the end of the day and never smudged or fell .
