LOVE

I have never used another waterproof mascara but I absolutely love this one. It holds curl and allows you to layer it on to get a more dramatic affect. It won't smudge and lasts all day in the pool or just a humid day. It is nearly impossible to get off, that's how good it is. I get it off by using face cream which is just about the only way to get it off. Would recommend to anyone looking for an amazing, all day waterproof mascara.

Clumpy

Clumps, messy and takes FOREVER to get off but still somehow manages to smear, I bought this as an in between mascara when I run out of Chanel's Inimitable Intense....never again!

Hate it

I went from using Great Lash Big to this because I wanted to try a waterproof eyeliner. I find that a lot of times throughout the day I get black marks above my eyelids from my mascara, especially if it is raining. I was in a rush so I grabbed this one, figuring I would be just as pleased as with the Great Lash Big. Needless to say I was not. The brush absolutely sucks and it is really hard to get...read more the mascara on your lashes evenly. It feels stiff as a board and does not make my lashes look long or full. Will not be purchasing this again!

Okay

This mascara is okay but not my favorite. it's a bit outdated in its looks and function. There are much better mascaras out there now for the same price.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.
