    I also advantage of the Physician's Formula Shimmer Strips mail in rebate to try this product for free. I actually picked up two colors, as my eyes being hazel, I figured brown and green should work.
    While I do like the colors on the lashes, being discreet enough to wear at work but still noticeable, I don't like that the black is quite thin and needs more than one coat. Also, it washes off way too easy with water for me, like a rainy day or a day shower will leave you looking like a panda.
    Also, the packaging is not the best, as quite often, the inner small tubing that leaves just enough product on the brush does come loose, and the brush ends up being covered by half an inch of mascara.
    Overall, I think it is way too expensive for the quality.

    I expected a lot from this product, considering the eye shadows have always been my go to. However, this mascara left a lot ot be desired.
    The applicator for both colours, black and purple. are way too big and hardly allow for proper mascara application. I find myselft applying more than two coats to get the desired look. For an expecting mother who has a busy 16 month old on the go, this doesn't make life too easy in the mornig.
    While the actual packaging is appealing, the product left me wanting...a different more effective mascara.
    Personally i only use this one when I have the time to apply it a bunch of times otherwise it sits in my make up drawer until absolutely necessary.

    Since I have the most shortest/lack of eyelashes I'm always on the lookout for any mascara that enhances the eye. The Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Mascara Duo caught my eye while shopping at Wal-mart as there was a free mail-in rebate. Purchased the one for "Brown Eyes" just because what would I lose? The purchase price was a little over $15. The product claims: Dual-ended volumizing and lengthening mascara that enhances eyes with illuminating color for ultra-dramatic & glamorous lashes; Perfectly coordinated shades can be used alone or used together for multiple looks & customized lashes; Luminous Lashes, Dramatic Volume, Glamorous Length, 24 Hour Wear; Clump-free, flake-free, smudge-free and fiber-free. So did the product deliver????? NO WAY!!! I was really disappointed. I did like the actual container - looks unique and kinda cool. However I didn't feel that beyond the look of the container, did it deliver on all the claims. First of all the brush was way too big which made it really hard to use. There are two sides, the side with the colour (green eyes: green, brown eyes: purple, hazel eyes: pink, blue eyes:blue) and the other side had the regular black side. Since I purchased the one for "Brown Eyes" it was black/purple. When I put the purple shade over the black, it didn't really create that dramatic look that I had anticipated. The product came out clumpy and just did not look attractive at all on my eyelash. I know that the product claimed 24 Hour Wear - but seriously I couldn't test that one out just because I couldn't wait to remove the product off my eyelash....LOL.

    Tried this...not worth it! The regular price was 16.99 @ Shoppers. There is a full rebate from the manufacturer for the product available... THANK GOODNESS, because this mascara is surely nothing special!

    I used the blue. I found the actual mascara wand held and applied too much. It was a very sloppy consistency.

    Didn't see any 'Shimmer" in the applied product and didn't see any thing exciting about applying the blue over the black. Not very noticeable at all!

    The container is bulky and I would suppose very costly. Perhaps they can spend more on product development than pretty applicators!!

    Get the free product if you want to try it. I think offer is good until Oct .
