This is the only mascara i use. I only needs to apply once and my lashes appears longer and thicker. Which is great because i don't have great lashes (thin and short). I'm also a contact wearer and i find this mascara is great. It don't smudge and very easy to remove with eye make up remover. I recommend this product to everyone!!!

I really like the Volume Express mascaras, although I don't notice a difference between the Colossal and original one. It thickens my lashes and adds some noticable volume.

Slightly clumpy but definitley thickens the lashes. Cannot let it dry between layers (I like to put on 2 or 3 normally) as it dries quickly and again, clumps.

This mascara goes on smooth and thick. It helps lengthen my eye lashes but still keep them natural looking.

Again I love cover girl. The quality is so good for the price. Can't beat it.

I discovered this product when my mtoher offered it to me, i was impressed! It was more effective than any other masacara I used before, for less. I only have to use it twice in the morning for perfect curls. It is really one of the best masacara on the market.

This is my first mascara I have purchased, and that I own myself. It creates dramatic volume to the eyelashes. My eyelashes are long enough already, but they make them extra long. It brings attention to your eyelashes, as it darkens them. There are clumps at times, and it is difficult at times to remove them, but overall it is a great product for people to use. I definitely recommend people on using this product.

I bought this mascara and at first loved it. I do find it makes my lashes look amazing but it tends to clump a little when you put it on. Really have to apply lightly and repeatedly to get the " Colossal" appearance.

Would I buy it again... Yes, but I think it could be improved a bit more.

This mascara is did not work very well for me and just kind of clumped on my sparse, straight, short asian lashes. It definitely did thicken them but I got the "tarantula legs" effect. Maybe that had do with the fact that I don't really have many lashes to separate/coat? I didn't really enjoy the smell either. However, It's not bad enough where I need to immediately replace it with a new one.

I'm giving this mascara average because the cost is typical drug store, and the quality and effectiveness - in this case I am going to have to say its probably more of a personal preference thing, and maybe someone with thicker lashes would benefit from it more.

I simply adore this mascara. I am about to go buy another tube even before my current one runs out because I love it so much. It definitely gets the job done and then some. It makes my lashes thicker, longer, and better. The only bad thing I have to say about it is that it flakes when it's worn for a really long time (maybe 9 hours or so?) After using it for a couple of weeks, I can easily say that my natural lashes have gotten thicker and longer as well. It doesn't make my lashes clump, and even if it does (which has been like once or twice) it's good enough for me to comb out without making my lashes lose their curl. It never smudges, which I love. I say the magic is in the colossal brush. Definitely a great buy!
