I found my mascara and will never stray

by zoopah (3 reviews)
This is the one. No other can compare to this mascara; I've been using it for years and have no desire to change. It is as waterproof as they come, the classic design brush is easy to handle, the formula gives me the right mix of lengthening without clumping, and the price is reasonable. I am a happy customer and will keep buying this forever!10/25/2007

January 4, 2008, 9:11 am I use this mascara in the washable form as well(read my other review). I am a contact lens wearer and this is my favorite waterproof mascara when I am not wearing it's washable sister, I have been doing so for 4 years. Most waterproof either leave my lashes brittle and I experience lash loss but not this one. I have sweated during works outs, worn to the beach, went swimming and had some really bad crying jags(crying was not caused by the product) while wearing this mascara and it didn't budge. My lashes remain very soft and without any flaking or sensitivity. Like most waterproof cosmetics removal takes a little bit of time, I suggest something oily or a remover with an oil base January 4, 2008, 9:11 am

    Really Nice Drugstore Mascara

    by shriekingviolet (12 reviews)
    Not HG material, but this is the mascara I often find myself repurchasing. I have several mascaras from higher end brands but none of them are waterproof (my eyes water a bunch, so I kind of need it) so I don't use those as often.

I have several mascaras from higher end brands but none of them are waterproof (my eyes water a bunch, so I kind of need it) so I don't use those as often. Full & Soft can do a great job on my lashes to both lengthen and thicken, but it takes a bit more work than it does with some of the higher end mascaras. Still I'm pretty pleased with the results most days and can get pretty dramatic results if I try. It builds well and I love the brush. It isn't good enough to keep me from straying to try other brands (I'm not if anything *could* be that good!), but it's a great everyday mascara. December 12, 2007, 10:58 pm

    Great product!

    by Joanndj (3 reviews)
    I can't say enough about this mascara! I was using Lancome for a while, and was still not the happiest, before my sister turned me on to this mascara. I used to think that you had to buy "fancy name brand" products to get great results, but that is so untrue! Now for a fraction of the price I get soft, long lash... December 7, 2007, 6:37 am I can't say enough about this mascara! I was using Lancome for a while, and was still not the happiest, before my sister turned me on to this mascara. I used to think that you had to buy "fancy name brand" products to get great results, but that is so untrue! Now for a fraction of the price I get soft, long lashes everyday and don't have to worry about reapplying after my workout each day b/c the waterproof version works so fabulously! I recommend this product to all my friends and me and all 3 of my sisters now use this exclusively! December 7, 2007, 6:37 am

    The Best Mascara Out There

May 15, 2008, 6:32 am I have been buying this mascara as long as I can remember. Now and again I will buy something different, but nothing compares to this mascara and I always end up throwing the other ones out! It doesn't smudge but also comes off clean and easy with makeup remover for waterproof makeup. It really lengthens my lashes and makes them look amazing. I am always getting compliment on my eyelashes and I always say it's because of this mascara! It just does wonders and I hope they never stop making it. May 15, 2008, 6:32 am

    One of my favorite mascaras

    Maybelline Full 'N Soft is one of my favorite mascaras. It is very reasonably priced.

January 27, 2008, 5:45 pm Maybelline Full 'N Soft is one of my favorite mascaras. It is very reasonably priced. Your lashes always seem to remain healthy when using this mascara even though when you put it on, it is there to stay. If I don't take it off at night, I look like I have already applied it the next morning. I have tried more expensive mascaras because the description sounds so good, but I usually come back to Full 'N Soft. I would highly recommend it! January 27, 2008, 5:45 pm

For some reason, only the waterproof version works for me. It comes off easily with the right make-up remover, so don't let that scare you off. You can't beat the price! December 11, 2007, 6:37 pm

    Gorgeous lashes!

    This is the best mascara I have yet used. Much better in my opinion than Maybelline's famous original. It lengthens and does leave your lashes fuller.

November 24, 2007, 8:42 pm This is the best mascara I have yet used. Much better in my opinion than Maybelline's famous original. It lengthens and does leave your lashes fuller. It also holds a curl from an eyelash curler like no other mascara, leaving your eyes looking wide open. And it is truly waterproof, even lasting well when swimming. I've been using it since they introduced it, and it is still the best I've found. November 24, 2007, 8:42 pm

November 21, 2007, 7:14 am I started wearing this mascara when i was 18, i was at a diner and the waitress had these fabulous lashes. I actually asked her what kind of mascara she used and she said "Maybelline Full N' Soft". I have never changed since. It gives you long, plump defined lashe, jsut like the name they are literally full and soft, and speaking from experience, incredibly water proof even after a good long cry. I love this mascara and hope they never discontinue it. November 21, 2007, 7:14 am
