This mascara is great, it's not amazing at lengething or volumizing but it still gives you great looking lashes that never look clumpy. It's a pretty basic mascara that a lot of people can use and that's why I think it has a cult like status in the beauty industry. Just a good stand by!

This was one of my first mascaras that I have ever purchased. I liked it mainly because it was a good mascara for the price. Now I noticed that it sometimes can give my lashes the "spider look". But I still like this mascara for my more "natural" days.

i dont like this mascara at all. it clumps so badly and it smudges! i think this is over hyped and people only want to get it and like it because its in magazines all the time. this isn't something for everyday use. i'll use it for photoshoots b/c it requires a lot to build up and will show well in photos but i would NEVER buy this ever again

Great product for the price...

If I had just one word to describe this mascara it would be... CRAP! No wait... maybe the word would be cheap and I don't mean just the price. I bought this junk because I've heard tons of good about it. I was so disapointed with it!!! A few months later I saw it listed under a magizine's Top 10 list and decided to give it another try. Afterall, it's possible that the first one I bought was an old tube, or had a bad upbringing.. who knows. However the second tube was as crappy as the first. At least it is consistant in its craptastiness.

Things that were wrong:
1. clumping!!!
2. messy!! see #1.
3. smudged, flaked, and was ignorant to work with in general.

I also agree with one of the other reviewers when she mentioned that it is ok at making lashes dark, but don't expect it to give you length or volume.

So sad! I wanna be a a believer! But mostly I just want my money back. :-/

In one sentence: Maybelline Blackest Black Great Lash Mascara is the best of the best. This is definitely worth every penny & then some. I have used it for as long as I can remember. I am always trying new mascaras because I'm horrified that this will be discontinued, but I always come back to Great Lash. It is the blackest mascara I've been able to find. It lasts from morning until I take it off at night. I never have clumps & it has never smeared throughout the day. Basic is better when it comes to mascara & Great Lash takes the cake. It's also the best priced. I find it at Walmart, $2.95 for 2. If you have trouble finding good mascara, & like me wasted well over $100 looking for it, waste no more time & get yourself some Great Lash Blackest Black. :)

I have used this mascara for a long time and I really have to say that I love it. It is well priced which is one of the biggest reasons I go back to it time after time

This is a classic for a reason, it works and is affordable, which is great since you have to replace mascara every three months. I have been using it for years and my 14 year-old wears it too, and she applies it like a pro. Look for that pink and green tube. I love the Blackest Black shade.

I did not like this mascara at all!!! I have always used Maybellene mascara and this has to be the WORST mascara out there.

This mascara is a great one for first-timers. It's good for a natural look and does everything a mascara should do, but not too dramatically. Lengthens a bit, volumizes a bit, does everything, but not too over the top. I love it, I use it a lot, but not as much as my LashBlast! I usually use this and one coat of my Lash Stiletto, haha.
