    I already have long eyelashes, so I didn't think it would be a big deal... but I LOVE how it makes my lashes extra crazy long!!!!

    I don't have long, thick lashes, so I'm very picky about my mascara. This is not the best mascara for volume but it gives you nice dark, clean, defined lashes. It does not smudge or crumble at all. I've had many people ask me what kind of mascara I use.
    The key is to use the tip of the wand for build-up. For extra volume, I sometimes use it with the mascara base that comes with Loreal's Double Extend mascara.
    It's pretty pricey but I have yet to try a drug store mascara that works as well as this one.

    I love the way this mascara grabs all my lashes and add tons of volume. The wand has very fine teeth and coats all my lashes with this amazing formula. My lashes look defined, full and long. The downside to this mascara I find is that you cannot apply more than two coats or my lashes looked sticky and stuck together. another downside is that I have greasy eyelids and I find that this mascara makes me look like a raccoon if I don't check the mirror every two or so hours and wipe off the excess mascaras under my eyes.

    This is by far the best mascara I have ever tried, and I consider myself to be a bit of a mascara guru. I already have long lashes, so it's my favourite feature to play up when I'm doing my makeup. This mascara really does what it claims to -- it thickens and lengthens lashes soooo well, to the point where strangers have stopped to compliment me on my lashes and ask if I'm wearing fakes! The wand is great for separating lashes, and I find that clumping is at a minimum when I wear this. I do flnd that once in awhile it flakes a tiny bit (especially if I'm rubbing my eyes while wearing it) but it's easily fixed. The price is pretty expensive, but I do find that I'm getting what I pay for when I purchase this mascara! It is definitely on the more difficult and messy side when it's time to remove it, but I find that wetting my face and then using coconut oil around the eye area always does the trick. Since I try to keep my cosmetic purchases as cruelty free and natural as possible, I also really wish that Benefit would stop testing on animals (I recently found out that they do) but until I find a more natural formula that compares to this, I will likely repurchase this because I absolutely love how it makes my eyelashes look.

    I first got this mascara as a gift and I seriously LOVED it! I like my lashes to look clean, clump-free and lengthened., so i was excited to try it. It lasted all day on my eyes, and came off easily with Vaseline at night. I repurchased this once, then realized that $30 was a bit too much for me to drop on mascara every month or so, but if you are willing to pay that price than i DEFINITELY recommend it!

    I really like this mascara! It does flake a little bit, but only at the end of the day. It makes your lashes look incredible and feels light at the same time. The brush has a tip to separate every lash and works well.

    Well it accually does lift your eyelashes. Not a huge amount but there is a difference. Has a mod to thick coverage. Not a light weight mascara you can feel it on you lashes and diffinitely see the difference

    I first tried this mascara from the Sephora birthday gift and I thought it was pretty good! I'm not too pleased with the price but it did separate my lashes nicely and made them look more full.
