I am sad to say that this product was disappointing. I love Maybelline and I had high hopes for this product, but unfortunately, these hopes were not met. The consistency of this product is way too wet, which makes it clump easily on the lashes. A lot of product came out at once which also contributed to clumping. The effect that the mascara gives is not voluminous by any means. It took me three coats to get the effect in the photo and even with that many coats my lashes do not stand out very much. I find that this mascara actually does more lengthening than volumizing, but since the name of the product suggests volume, I was not pleased. My L'oreal Voluminous Million Lashes mascara gives a lot more volume. I will say though that it lasts nicely on the eye throughout the day without fading or causing the dreaded panda eye. However, I do not think that the effect that the mascara gives stands up to my eyeshadow.
Final verdict: if you are looking for a voluminous mascara, sadly this is not it--or at least not to me. However, because the product lasts nicely throughout the day and does lengthen, you may want to purchase it for those reasons. Perhaps this is one of those products--like the Benefit They're Real mascara--that is better once it dries out.
Have you tried this mascara? What do you think?
