Unlike the other reviews so far, I loved this product for the exact reason others did not! It is exactly what a girl with long lashes wants. The product is indeed thicker, and will clump if the applicator wand is not wiped on the tube for removing excess product. Within two or three strokes you have all the product you need on those babies! When I get a new mascara, I put it on my freshly cleansed eyes, and then hit the gym. My workouts are intense sweating sessions where I am in a pool of sweat at the end. When I wore this mascara, I had no lash marks on my lower eyes, and no lash marks under my brow bone! Incredible! This had to be too good to be true! So I used it at the gym all week again with great results. Talk about staying power!

The blue mascara: I really liked this as well, it gives you that little pop to your eye when layered over your black. Note: blue is great for any eye color, not only blue eyes....fyi.

If I had to pick anything negative at all, it would be the word "shimmer" in the name. The mascara has no shimmer in the product at all, so that could be misleading.

Oh yes, if you search you can find ones with the full rebate stickers on the package and get every penny back if purchased by November 30th 2010, and postmarked by December 15th 2010.

Good deal if you ask me!
