I always have a hard time with mascaras. They tend to smudge, and often get into my eyes causing my eyes to run and burn (almost always when I'm driving!). I used to use the famous Mabelline pink bottle/green wand mascara, but I guess you get what you pay for. This Mary Kay mascara is expensive, but it's absolutely worth it.
This is the first mascara that I have ever had that stays put when I use it - all day! It's not waterproof, but the odd time that I have been emotional while wearing it, it still didn't run. It really lengthens my lashes and makes them look full and plump, and even after a couple of months using it, it's not getting all clumpy. I have occasionally used mascaras from the department store beauty counters (Clinique, Estee Lauder, Christian Dior) and this mascara rivals those in quality.

I have been using Mary Kay Ultimate mascara since the brand released it a number of years ago. I love this product it goes on without clumps and it's thick enough to pump up the volume of your lashes. The tube is expensive compared to some of the other mascaras out there but I think it's worth the results. I think the eyes are the most important part of the face so they deserve to be shown off and Mary Kay does a great job of this!

Just as a side note: Like all mascaras you have to make sure to get a new tube every 6 weeks or so because the mascara will dry out and start to flake.

I bought this mascara a couple months ago with a lot of other Mary Kay products. I've been a "roamer" when it comes to makeup, trying several different brands over the time of a few years. Most drugstore mascaras were clumpy and irritated my eyes.

This mascara was a welcome change! My eyelashes are very thin and they gave a sweet, natural volume. Most importantly, the mascara lasted all day but did not irritate my eyes in any way. It's almost "waterproof", but it doesn't flake and isn't difficult to remove.

The shaped mascara bottle is classy and very easy to grasp. The wand is big and may not be the best for maneuvering over lower lashes, but it has a broad range and sweeps the upper lashes wonderfully!

I have tried a few other mascaras since, but I always end up rubbing my eye makeup off because the mascara is brittle and scratchy. So far this is my favorite everyday mascara!

I would recommend this mascara to anyone, especially contact wearers and those with a sensitive eye area. Keeps your lashes big, spacious and natural!
