    not a fan

    i'm not a fan of this mascara. i bought it because of all the hype about this mascara. it clumps, and smudges, i had to constantly check in the mirror to see if i look like a raccoon every time i used it. i wouldn't recommend it. — 3 years, 8 months ago

    Not such Great Lashes

    I really don't understand why this mascara gets such high recommendations. I guess if you just need something in a pinch it's fine, but otherwise I'm not a fan. It doesn't really do much for the lashes aside from clump them up. Furthermore it smudges like crazy waterproof or not. It's really not that great. — 3 years, 10 months ago

    Nothing Like the Original

    I am a die hard fan of the original (non waterproof) Maybelline Great Lash. This? Not so much. The waterproof version leaves me with barely there lashes and rubs off quite easily. No volume, no length, not worth it. — 3 years, 10 months ago

    My Everyday never lets me down mascara

    I have been using this for years! It never lets me down. Holds my curl amazingly well too! I like to layer this under other mascaras as well, both drugstore and high end. For the price, it can't be beat! — 4 years ago

    Nothing special

    I needed new mascara and I was being cheap so I bought this because it was only $3. It's just okay. It clumps a little but most mascaras with a regular brush do. (This will clump a LOT if you don't wipe off the excess mascara on a tissue.) It doesn't smudge at all but I haven't tested it in water. I just wish it made my lashes look thicker. Will not repurchase. — 4 years, 1 month ago

    C'mon! It's not even that "great"!

    In my opinion, it doesnt live up to it's name or raves. This is my 2nd mascara I ever bought. Never went back to it! The wand dried up in the matter of weeks! It's more of an everyday mascara for people with luscious lashes. I got stubborn asian ones, so maybe thats the problem. pros: cute packaging, easy to use wand cons: dries fast, no lengthening, no volumizing, made lashes brittle, didnt really do much. — 4 years, 1 month ago

    Waterproof Indeed

    This one is a bit hard to take off, hence the Waterproof label, even with directions on what to use, so I suggest using an oil-based remover. Excellent brush and LOTS of definition, might clump just a TINY bit but it's definitely worth the price. — 4 years, 4 months ago

    Caused my eyes to develop blood spots & swelling

    Caused an eye reaction on my second day using it. Needless to say, I had to chuck it. Sad, since I loved this mascara growing up. — 4 years, 5 months ago

    my all time favorite!

    This mascara is amazing!! It really does what it says on the bottle and it's only $4!! I tried it on and it doesn't clump or smudge, and it makes my lashes look thick, long, and glossy! Literally, it stays on forever unless you use make up remover. For the packaging, i personally think it's pretty cute. It's a nice pink color with a black cap for a touch of mod. Go get one and try it for yourself! — 4 years, 6 months ago
