Editor Review

Rated a 8.5

This dual-wanded mascara has fat brushes and contains the unpopular white primer, but it's the only one I've tried that delivers a false-lash look and passes the surf test. Lashes are three times more noticeable even after getting pummeled by waves. (Only oil-based remover gets this stuff off.) Covering the primer with the thickening dark formula takes skill and patience. Tip: Don't wait too long for primer to dry -- 15 seconds will do. And close each side of the tube tightly with a click or clumping will occur.

    This product was one of the worst mascaras that I've ever used. It was hard to cover all the white of the primer. By the time I cover the primer, the black mascara gets really clumpy and my lashes look horrible. March 12, 2008, 10:34 pm

    CLUMPY

    by fallenangel (3 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    I thought this was a rip off. It made my lashes feel clumpy and heavy. It took me forever to get it off my eyes and they felt irritated after I did. I would not recommend it to anyone, save your money! June 12, 2008, 9:17 pm

    Fall out lashes

    by Tiffanie_Jade (3 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    I used this product a few times and found that after using it when I went to remove it with makeup remover that my eye lashes were falling out. I quit using the product and gave it to my sister, the same thing happened to her. I also found that when I wore it I kept having flakes fall off and fall into my eyes. I also fo...und that it didn't really make my lashes look any longer than any other mascara out there. I haven't bought this product since the first time and I wont ever buy it again.

    Never Touching Again

    by IvyOMG (25 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    This mascara was clumpy from the start and it was hard to cover the white with the black. It was also time consuming and it was sticky the whole day sticking my lashes together making them look spidery. The results were so-so and look like a mess. I'm never buying this again.

    It burns

    by Zadidoll (6 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    I bought this product thinking that it would do what it claims. It didn't. The mascara clumped and quite frankly my eyes were burning within minutes. Waterproof? Yea, definitely and it was also difficult to remove even with mascara remover! I had a difficult time removing it without washing my face, applying eye drops to ca...lm my eyes (since they were bloodshot from the burning) and reapply my makeup. Basically, I wasted nearly an hour getting ready to go out. May 1, 2008, 10:23 am

    Elmer's Glue?

    by MinnesotaJoyce (4 reviews)
    This should have been a no-brainer and I was definately hoping for some intense mascara. Had to toss this product after 2 days as the white primer coat caused major irration to my eyes and kept blurring my contacts. Bummer! February 23, 2008, 5:57 pm

    A bit of a disappointment

    by oneangelsmiles (19 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    I didn't really care for this product at all. The primer is fine when you put it on but once it dries (as stated) and you attempt to put on the mascara; it drags and doesn't cover your lashes very well. If you have any areas where your lashes are short it will miss them completely or worse you'll end up with mascare under y...our eyelashes instead of on them and it's a mess to try and repair. Sorry but I was less than impressed. February 26, 2008, 3:46 am
