    I love this mascara. It really really volumizes. However, after like month, the brush got clumpy ish, but I just had to remove the excess mascara. So, it's okay!

    I do have quite a few make-up obsessions, and mascara is one of them. Unlike my bronzer problem, I prefer drugstore brands to “prestige” labels. I go through mascara too frequently to be spending $30 on the stuff. Although once every couple of years I do go out and by the "good stuff," just to make sure I’m not missing anything.

    Lately mascara has been the bane of my existence. I’m not sure but my eyelashes don’t seem to be as thick as they used to be. So mascara has been a must for me. I used to adore Maybelline’s Great Lash, but lately, there has been nothing great about my lashes.

    I went back to L’Oreal Voluminous Mascara in black. I haven’t used this stuff in years, and at first I wondered why I left. L’Oreal’s Voluminous Mascara gave me thick and long lashes. I had forgotten what thick and long lashes look like.

    The only draw back, the reason I stopped using it in the first place, after about a week of use, the mascara isn’t the same. It starts to clump more, but for those gorgeous lashes, I may start buying this product on a bi-weekly basis.

    Personally I dislike this mascara a lot because it clumped, it irritates my eyes and i have contacts, and i didn't feel like it gave me volume at all.

    I really like this mascara. I does what it promises by giving you tons of volume without being clumpy. It's a good everyday product that adds depth without looking over the top.
    I find that it does tend to flake a little when it gets close to the three month mark so as long as you buy a fresh tube when you notice the brush getting a little worn you're fine.
    My favourite is the carbon black; very dramatic!

    i just bought this recently and it works so well! it really makes my eyes pop and adds the finishing touch to make them look darker and i find it gives the promise of volume!! : ) the application brush is a little bigger (compared to my last one at least, Revlon 3D) so be careful when you swipe your smaller eyelashes but besides that, it goes on smoothly and doesnt clump! recommended for all :)

    Awesome mascara! I've been on and off this one for years but I keep coming back and always wonder why I even bother trying others when this one works so well on me. It does exactly what it says - it volumizes my lashes making it thicker and longers as well. The best part of about this mascara is that it stays put and doesn't smudge or flake on me like other mascaras. The only part that I don't like about this is that after it's been open for awhile, the mascara starts clumping on me and making my eyelashes look spidery. My solution to this is just to brush it with a clean wand before it sets dry. It's an awesome mascara and at such an affordable price too!

    I have fair blonde lashes so mascara and is must in my beauty routine. This mascara is my favourite - it holds the curl and add lots of volume. I tried several and this one works better than most mascaras.

    i use the waterproof version of this and it is so good! unfortunately i wish it was more volumizing! since the name is voluminous. but it does a good job of lengthening and is almost impossible to clump

    I adore this mascara! It provides colossal volume and length to my short little lashes, and the thick brush makes it easy to apply. It doesn't smudge, it's long-lasting, and the price is great! I've bought many top-of-the-line mascaras, but I just keep coming back to this one.
