Clumpy and looks messy

This mascara was good at lengthening my lashes but didn’t give them much volume and it was clumpy and made my lashes stick together and look messy. I didn’t like that the black mascara was in a brown tube either.

Washes off so easy! YAY

This mascara is average for what it does to your eyelashes. Just like any other normal mascara. My favourite part about it is how effortlessly it washes off my eyes with just soap and water! I hate using makeup remover and preser just washing my face and this comes off 100% just by washing! NO SCRUBBING! NO BLACK MASCARA REMAINS BELOW YOUR EYES! Never seen another mascara like that in terms of removal!

Good mascara

Love this new mascara! It lengthens and separates my tiny lashes beautifully and really helps to open up my eyes and get at the baby lashes in the inner corner. A great everyday mascara. I’d recommended this to friends and when this one runs out will be purchasing the black mascara. Great job Burt Bees.

Not good.

I'm at my wit's end with Burt's Bees. I love the idea of more natural products, but overall I end up hating their new line of makeup items. This mascara did not buck the trend in that regards.

Here's what I liked about it. The colour. That's it. I thought the brown colour was nice and natural and it felt comfortable on my eyes as well, I suppose.

The real problem with this mascara is, obviously, all the things I didn't like about it. The formula was really dry, thick and flaky. As a result, there were so many clumps. Even after combing my lashes through a lot, it still looked pretty clumpy. The effect isn't even stunning, it's a natural everyday wear mascara, but I would want a clump-free mascara for that.

On top of that, it smears. If you rub hard when it's dry, it still smears a little, but mostly stays put. It's not waterproof, but it is in fact the least waterproof mascara I've ever tried. At one point I yawned and my eyes misted... thank goodness I wasn't in public because when I went to the bathroom I looked like a raccoon. Usually I prefer waterproof mascara's for this reason, but this one runs so easily even compared to non-waterproof mascara.

Unless you want to spend the day with clumpy lashes, dabbing at your eyes and covertly checking in mirrors, I'd avoid this one.
