    I got a sample of this once with my skincare set. I absolutely love it. Its by far one of the best mascaras I've ever used! It makes your lashes just the right size and thickness. The only thing I would've liked better is if it was waterproof. This mascara is very much worth it.

    I've been using Clinique products for over six years; I don't buy make-up from drugstores. Clinique has great quality products at reasonable prices. Their quality is comparable to higher end make-up brands (Chanel, Dior, etc.), but are less costly. All of their products are hypo-allergenic, which is great for me because I have super sensitive skin. Clinique High Impact Mascara is awesome because it washes off with just water, but somehow stays on during a sad movie or a day at the beach. I buy it in Black and it's a great day-to-night mascara -- subtle enough to wear to class or work, but pretty enough to wear out to dinner or downtown. The only reason I gave it half stars is because if you let it sit around & don't use it, it can get too sticky or clumpy. Other than that, a great product.

    I bought this last week because my usual M.A.C product was unavailable. The next day, before leavinf for school, as is my ritual, I brushed some carefully on.
    My lashes instantly looked thicker, longer and my pesudo sleepy eyes completely opened up. Absolute miracle. The M.A.C mascara is now forgotten and I will be getting this after 4 months or so, when it will surely be over, given the fact that I use it thrice everyday.
    It makes your lashes look so THICK. It's unbelievable. A definite must-try. Hope I helped! XO

    What it is: volumizing plus lengthening mascara.

    Where to get it: Clinique online, counters and at Sephora

    How much: $14 for the full tube but I got the sample size as part of a set.

    What I like about it: it was pretty decent with the volume it gave me. Very natural looking. As far as length, it was okay. It added length, enough so you can SEE the difference, but it wasn't dramatic length.

    What could be improved: I really hate it when things don't live up to their names. This one is named "high impact" which is far from what it really does.

    Overall: I probably will NOT be purchasing a full tube. It's cool for now, the effects are very natural looking. This would be good for everyday type of use. Definitely not for special occassions.

    I love Clinique mascaras and this version my favorite one! I recently got the Dark Honey version for Christmas which gives me thick, full, clump-free aubergine lashes. It is rather pricey at $18.00 but is a nice alternative to some of the higher end brands that cost $30.00 and up.

    i'm extra picky about mascara and always have problems with it flaking, this is the first one that i'm able to get thru a whole day without driving my eyes crazy! i have pretty decent eyelashes so doesn't take much to make them look good but its a rare product that doesn't flake all over my face and into my eyes, this mascara rocks! its super dark so only takes one coat and i never ever once had to use a comb, clump free, flake free, love love love it!

    It doesn't do much in terms of lengthening and defining. Fine if you just want something subtle.

    I got this mascara as a sample for free, and maybe mine had been sitting around for too long, but it was VERY clumpy. I always had to first wipe off the applicator with a tissue before applying (which is wasteful, and pisses me off because I know there are other mascaras that do not require this procedure). Then, when I applied it, I did not think it did much for my lashes in terms of volumizing or defining. Would not recommend you waste money on this since it seems like there are plenty of other mascaras out there that work better for cheaper.
