I didn’t like it. Period.
Just like the Lancôme one, I don’t get the vibrating part. I don’t find it does anything. The brush is bad, sparse bristles that deliver too much product making it hard to build volume or length. The bristles are also very harsh, I find they hurt my eyelids. It’s hard to reach those corner lashes. It lasts okay, I didn’t notice any flakiness and comes off fairly easily.
Don’t expect any dramatic results. There are much better products out there for the same price that give way better results.

I couldn’t wait to try Maybelline’s new mascara, especially after reading so many good reviews about it.
What a pleasant surprise. Although I am a fan of their mascaras, the last few ones have disappointed me.
I love the brush. The scoop shape is really innovative and allows to build length and volume with each side. It separates nicely, one coat is enough for a day look, nice full soft lashes, while two or more coats really deliver a false eyelash look... dramatic, nicely separated, voluminous and long lashes. It lasts well, although it didn’t quite make it through a steamy dancing night, when it started melting off.
Removal is a breeze. I only use olive oil and I have no problem with getting it off with no residue left behind.
The best part is that the awful smell the Colossal had is gone.
I am very happy with the product. Great price quality rapport! Better than most high end, high priced mascaras.
Worth ever penny.

Huge disappointment. The brush is weird and delivers way to much product through the spare bristles. I don’t get the vibrating part. I don’t find it to do anything. The only thing that vibrates is the handle while my lashes get clumped up together. It does not lengthen, doesn’t give volume, separation, let alone their advertised dramatic look. I love Lancôme mascaras in general but to me, this was a huge fail; and I blame it all on the brush. The product itself has a very nice texture, as always, but the brush is terrible.
If you wanna dish out the 30$ stick to Hypnose.

My favourite makeup artist, Kandee Johnson is a huge fan of this product and uses it throughout her videos. She really sparked up my curiosity so I had to go and get it and boy am I glad I did.
It’s the perfect highlighter, sheer with a slight shimmer. I dab on top of my cheekbones and right under the eyebrow bone and it gives me this subtle glow. It's relatively easy to apply and blends nicely. Truly a must for every make up bag.

I like it. It lasts very very well, it has a great texture, i can easily apply it with my angled brush, blend and smudge as I pleased, and it stayed put through the entire day.
Although it is waterproof I had no problem removing it at night. I use olive oil to remove my make up and it came off beautifully.

I saw this product in several magazines and spiked up my curiosity. It’s supposed to be a hydrating sheer balm that slightly changes colour “adjusting” to your lips.
I love it. It gives this great sheer, it feels incredibly luxurious and nourishing and it gives me this unique rosy colour that [plumps my lips. It is however pricey! It’s a fun product but I don’t find it’s worth the 30$.

This is my primer and wow!!! I don’t usually wear eyeshadow but this product made me change my make up routine and day to day look. I actually lok forward to playing with colours now, as it provides great hold and dramatically enhances the colours. It goes on nicely and me make up lasts all day.
Wonderful product, I’m hooked.

This mascara was the hugest dissapointment ever!
It simply makes no sense. I couldn't even apply it properly. I poked my eyes with it several times in a few attempts to master it. When I did manage to actually get it on my lashes, it clumped like crazy! Chunks of the product were deposited stucking my lashes together for the horror spider leg look. I have tried incorporating it in my routine, trying to apply it only to my exterior corner lashes, which are usually the hardest to get. No luck here either! The thick bizare brush only managed to stuck both upper and lower lashes together into a huge tarantula leg! The horror!!!
Needles to say I washed it off right away. I didn't even get a chance to try it out really. I couldn't see how well it lasts, or if it flakes, or if it dries fast!
The brush is a total failure in my oppinon. It's so chunky and made it impossible for my to apply, leave alone get the "telescopic" look.
This has to be the worst mascara I have ever tried. Ever.
Don't even think about it.

I am not crazy about this mascara, I still find Hypnose to be better; but that doesn't mean it's not agreat product.
I love the texture of it, it doesn't dry fast and it doesn't clump. The brush is nothing special, but it makes it easy to get length and decent volume. It doesn't clump either.
Overall it's a great mascara but I had higher expectations.
Worth trying it out

Light and refreshing. It goes on smothly, gets absorbed well, hydrates and soothes the skin in the eye area. It makes a good eye cream for day to day use, it holds fairly well under make-up and it has great texture.
I like it. I needed a cream, a very basic one for the eye area, something to soothe and depuff, or simply keep the area hydrated, and prep it for concealer. And this cream seems to do the trick. I also have to admit I love the stick, roll-on concept. It feels so cool and smooth and seems to soothe on contact. Really cool.
worth giving it a try
