    The cosmetics gal at my local beauty bar was raving about this stuff but don't think it's worth the price/fuss. There are lots of great lash lengthening mascaras out there for half the price.

    I love this mascara, I truly do, but be careful if you have sensitive eyes. I recently discovered that I can't use this mascara in the winter. When the cold wind blows, the mascara runs slightly and really irritates my eyes. I've never had this problem with any other mascara. I'll just stick to using it in the summer.

    I got this as a sample and its not that good, great for seperating lashes though. It doesn't do more than any other mascara and its definitely not worth the price

    I got this as a sample from Sephora. Based on the name I was excited to try it.
    The name, however, is bit of an overstatement. This mascara just doesn't stand out for me; there isn't anything special about it, and if anything I found it had the tendency to clump my lashes together.

    I have been blessed with long lashes, and when using Benefit They're Real! I found that this mascara only added more length but not enough volume. I also found that the bristles in the brush irritated my eyes. For the price I don't think that I will purchase the mascara again since it was nothing special.

    Gives me length and a nice dark colour but doesn't fan out my lashes. I had to use another mascara brush to make my lashes look fuller. The brush is hard. Would recommend to someone with a lot of lashes. Price is okay.

    Not worth the price in my opinion, it goes on smooth and really adds a lot to length but it makes lashes look like spider legs. Doesn't do anything for thickening the lashes and without that it just looks tacky and cheap. If it's going to look cheap I'd prefer not to spend $25 on it.

    I like this mascara because it suits my preferred qualities of a mascara, with it giving off a very dark colour to it and how it makes my eyelashes look almost doll-like. One of my favourites.

    I had heard so much about this mascara, and finally gave in and paid the whopping amount they charge for it.

    It's an absolutely fine mascara, but not sure what all the fuss is about. I have used much cheaper products and had as good, if not better, result.

    It's definitely lengthening but it doesn't really 'plump' the lashes up - they still look rather fine, especially if I use liquid eyeliner with it.

    Overall, I'd tell someone with short lashes to go for it, but if it's fullness you're after, there are better mascaras out there.

    I bought this mascara and returned it. It worked ok, but it made my lashes feel horrible! Very brittle and crusty while wearing. It didn't help my lashes a ton, and it is just too harsh for everyday wear.
