I've not only had a problem with my mascara smudging over the years, but I have a tendency to blink when applying it. Huge mess!! I LOVE how when I get the Ultimate Mascara on my skin it just wipes off with a Q-tip. It's an effortless fix. Not to mention it lengthens my eyelashes great without smudging or flaking as the day goes on.
This mascara not only does a great job with volume and length, it holds the curl ALL DAY LONG. Like until you go to bed at midnight all day long. I'm really impressed with it. No flaking either, which is huge pet peeve for me. The only drawback is I find it a little bit harder to wash off than most mascaras. It's not waterproof, but takes almost as long to wash off as waterproof mascara. Still, for the results it's a minor inconvenience I don't mind.
I received mine free from the brand, but it's definitely a mascara I would purchase.
This mascara plumps thickens and lengthens those lashes. No flaking No clumping. Lasts all day and then some. Layers great for those extra coats.
I love this mascara. It lasts all day and still looks fresh, it makes my lashes look longer and thicker, and doesn't get all clumpy. I can cry in it and it doesn't wash away, but it's still easy to get off at night (or in the morning!) So far my very favorite!
I always have a hard time with mascaras. They tend to smudge, and often get into my eyes causing my eyes to run and burn (almost always when I'm driving!). I used to use the famous Mabelline pink bottle/green wand mascara, but I guess you get what you pay for. This Mary Kay mascara is expensive, but it's absolutely worth it.
This is the first mascara that I have ever had that stays put when I use it - all day! It's not waterproof, but the odd time that I have been emotional while wearing it, it still didn't run. It really lengthens my lashes and makes them look full and plump, and even after a couple of months using it, it's not getting all clumpy. I have occasionally used mascaras from the department store beauty counters (Clinique, Estee Lauder, Christian Dior) and this mascara rivals those in quality.
I have been using Mary Kay Ultimate mascara since the brand released it a number of years ago. I love this product it goes on without clumps and it's thick enough to pump up the volume of your lashes. The tube is expensive compared to some of the other mascaras out there but I think it's worth the results. I think the eyes are the most important part of the face so they deserve to be shown off and Mary Kay does a great job of this!
Just as a side note: Like all mascaras you have to make sure to get a new tube every 6 weeks or so because the mascara will dry out and start to flake.
I have been using this mascara for 3 years now. I love the way my lashes look full and long, without the clumpiness of some mascaras. This mascara does not seem to have a lot of "lengthening fibers", which I like - and is a big plus if you wear contacts. The fibers always seem to get in my contacts, and flake off and leave spots on my cheeks. Instead, it creates length with a smooth formula and a great brush. The brush is longer than some, as other reviews state, but I feel like that is a plus. The length allows me more control to find and coat those smaller, shorter lashes. The price is about average for a really great mascara, which this one is!! I will continue to purchase and use this mascara as long as it is available, and recommend it highly, especially for contact wearers!!
I bought this mascara a couple months ago with a lot of other Mary Kay products. I've been a "roamer" when it comes to makeup, trying several different brands over the time of a few years. Most drugstore mascaras were clumpy and irritated my eyes.
This mascara was a welcome change! My eyelashes are very thin and they gave a sweet, natural volume. Most importantly, the mascara lasted all day but did not irritate my eyes in any way. It's almost "waterproof", but it doesn't flake and isn't difficult to remove.
The shaped mascara bottle is classy and very easy to grasp. The wand is big and may not be the best for maneuvering over lower lashes, but it has a broad range and sweeps the upper lashes wonderfully!
I have tried a few other mascaras since, but I always end up rubbing my eye makeup off because the mascara is brittle and scratchy. So far this is my favorite everyday mascara!
I would recommend this mascara to anyone, especially contact wearers and those with a sensitive eye area. Keeps your lashes big, spacious and natural!
I received this mascara to review, and I've had the privilege of trying many amazing mascaras over the years. It's hard for me to really be wowed by a new product, but in this case I was.
What I loved:
* my lashes feel incredibly soft
* it holds a curl really well
* flaking is minimal or non-existant, which is quite amazing for a non-waterproof mascara
* washes off easily
What I disliked? Nothing really! It delivers volume and length comparable to my other favourite mascaras, so you aren't missing out on anything. It's perhaps a little pricey, but I believe it's worth the cost.
Thumbs up!
