I received this mascara as a travel size in the Sephora 2014 Birthday Gift. Although this mascara is a lot pricier than how much I would normally pay for a mascara, I must say, it is worth every penny! This is literally my all-time favourite mascara. It applies easily to my eye lashes, without clumping. It last long and doesn't smear (even-though it is not water-proof). It made my eye lashes long longer and fuller, without making them look fake. Definitely will purchase in the future!

One of the best mascaras I have ever used. Definitely a go to. Makes your eyelashes super black and volumized.

This is a mascara that adds volume, length, and curl. You only need one stroke with this mascara without it clumping. This brush is a very different shape. It is a cone-shaped brush for separating my lashes and a huge rounded base that provides me with loads of volume. Goodness, I need volume. It did a great job. I truly was surprised, especially when I pulled out the brush. No faith, turns into faithful. It only cost me $28.00. Geez, I got to stop buying mascara. I just can't decide which one I like the best. Ya, I know, I can like more than one.

I have very long eyelashes to start off with. But using this makes me look like I"m wearing false lashes. Anytime I wear this mascara, strangers stop and ask what I'm wearing, or if the lashes are fake or extensions. The only qualm I have about this is that it sometimes flakes under your eyes (put a top clear coat mascara on top: Anastasia Lash Genius) , and the second thing is that it dries out quickly so you can only get a solid 2.5 months out of it.

This mascara is rather on the pricey side, but its worth its weight in gold!


Although mascaras should only be used for 3 months and then tossed (swiping it onto your eyelashes and dipping it back in the tube multiple times....yikes! A bacteria wonderland!), this never disappoints.

The formula is rather on the thicker side, making multiple coats a little tough to work with. Solution: work vigilantly and fast.

With that aside, this mascara lives up to the hype. It provides long, full eyelashes and offers the blackest black.

In other words, as long as you work fast, this mascara is a keeper for long curled lashes that last and dont smudge

Happy shopping!



**Note: I was not paid for this review. I paid for this item with my own money.**

I got mine in Extra Black and it's the darkest black mascara I've ever used, that being said, it makes your eyelashes stand out like nothing else

It gives your eyelashes that falsifying effect without it looking clumpy

The only downfall is that It's not so great at giving your eyelashes a good curl

My eyelashes touch my brow-bone even when I'm not wearing mascara, so a lot of the time mascaras will smear all over my brow-bone, which is a major pain in the butt. As such, I went on a mission for a non-smearing mascara that would give me lush, full, non-smearing lashes. I came up with Makeup Forever's Smoky Lash, thanks to a helpful saleslady at Sephora, and I now am the proud owner of the most amazing, beautiful, non-smearing mascara in the world. (And it's cheaper than Lancome and Dior, which is even better news.)

This won't necessarily give you amazing length, but it will give you full, thick, and defined lashes with no clumping and absolutely no smearing. It has a deep black formula and is really comfortable to wear. To top it all off, it comes off super easily with a little soap and water, and minimal effort.

I love, love, love this mascara! Totally worth the price.
