I have used Maybelline Great Lash since I first started wearing make-up. The quick math...24 years, bought every three months at an estimated $5.00 per bottle = $480.00 that I have spent on this product.
The PROBLEM...over the past couple of years the product seems to go bad much faster than it did years ago. Is this being done on purpose to make the consumer purchase the product more frequently???
A little secret the manufacture is not sharing?
On Monday, November 30/09 I stopped at CVS to purchase a bottle. When I arrived at work and opened it...IT STUNK. I returned it that night on my way home. Heck yeah...it is my five bucks.
WalMart seems to always be sold out of the Black...so you would think their supply would be fresher...it only last me maybe 1.5 - 2 months. I store it out of the light and in a cool dry place, and always have.
What is going on???
I have come to the point that I am going to start shopping around and take a "Girlfriend Poll" to get information about other mascara's and maybe give them a try. So what if it might cost a bit more...if the product works and have a better shelf life...don't cha' think it is worth it in the long run?
Future quick math...if I wear mascara for another 20 years (6 bottles per year) at $6.00 per bottle, that's 120 bottles that equals $720.00.
