Maybelline New York Intense XXL Volume & Length Waterproof Microfiber Mascara by Maybelline New York, Mascara Review

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 <em>and</em> 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 <em>too long</em> for primer to dry -- 15 seconds will do. And close each side of the tube tightly with a click or clumping will occur.

Awful comes to mind, but that's not fair I guess, it does it's job for an hour... but no more. These aren't volumus lashes either, their mediocre at best, not to mention the mascara begins to goop and flake after an hour. — 2 years, 3 months ago

heavy
corizotti (540 reviews)

this mascara is heavy. it feels thick and never quite dries on your lashes, which eventually causes them to stick to each other. it smears around when you try and wash it off. i just dont like it. there are much better waterproof mascaras. on the bright side, it does give you tons of [heavy] volume! — 3 years ago
