I thought this is the worst mascara I have EVER used! First off the application is very difficult. The vibrations caused the mascara to go all over my eye, making a difficult clean up. It was also very difficult to separate my lashes. This mascara just clumped them together! And it is not just me because I am very good at applying mascara and my friends will attest to this! The vibrations are also not very noticeable depending on where you hold the brush as your hand can muffle them quite a bit. All in all this mascara is very difficult to apply, doesn't separate lashes, a bit clumpy, and VERY fake looking. Only but this if you are going for the I have three really thick eyelashes look! NOT A GOOD PRODUCT!
Nice mascara! I received this as part of the swag bag from the ShopCrawl - (thanks Ali)! It is a very cool product, and I am so glad I got to try it out.
In terms of the vibrating effect - it is a neat feeling, at first it tickled, but after a few seconds I got used to it! I am not entirely sure how effective the vibrating actually is, vs. manually applying the mascara. I tried it out with and without the vibration and mascara seemed to apply equally as well.
That being sad - I am very happy with how it goes on! Lengthening and volumizing and had a very rich black colour.
I am also happy with the waterproof factor - was caught in a huge rainstorm, and the mascara held its own! No smudging or running down my face whatsoever!
I would purchase this again.
The mascara wand feels like a massage for your eyelids. I like the vibration and unlike some of you, it didn't make my eyes water. I don't have sensitive eyes, though. I thought it was really fun to use and I was pleased with the results. I got a waterproof version of this from the shop crawl and it certainly stays put! I am planning to try this wand with another fave Maybelline mascara called lash stylist. There is something about that formula that is magical and I think that combined with the pulse perfection brush would be spectacular. Pulse perfection is a good bet if you want a luxury product for less than the other ones like it on the market.
I received this through the product review club. Overall, I thought the performance of it was average and not worth the change from my favorite, Covergirl lash exact. I found the button was hard to hold down when I was using it and at first try it ended up looking kind of goopy. I also found it a bit odd to use since it sounds a lot like an electric toothbrush which is a bit odd.
Eventually I did get the hang of it but I think it was just as easy to wiggle my good ol' mascara brush back and forth a bit. For the odd night out it does, once you have the hang of it, work well for getting root to tip. In the end, I was fairly indifferent about this mascara. Worth a try if you aren't happy with the one you've got but I won't switch if you've already found one that works for you.
I got this mascara free through work, and I was skeptical about the necessity of a motorized brush. How hard is it to wiggle the wand a little? But I'm glad I tried it, as I really like it. I'm surprised that some people find it shaves time off their mascara routine, as it takes me a little longer to apply than other mascaras, but the results are worth it.
I have longish, very straight lashes, so curling them first is a must. If you're worried about the brush leaping to life when you hit the button, turn it on first and then slowly nestle it into the base of your lashes. Then sweep upwards, going at the pace that best deposits the amount of product you want to apply. I usually go fairly quickly and do several sweeps while the mascara is still wet, ending with a tiny backwards flick over the tips of my eyelashes from behind (it adds a little extra 'pop' to the look).
For me, the result is dramatic enough that I've been skipping eye shadow or liner, which is a nice option during the summer months. I don't find that wet-to-dry formulas like this flake or smudge, and this holds up really well -- throughout the work day, including a lunctime workout and rinse off at the gym. Surprisingly, it also comes off really easily with warm water and face cleanser at night.
My only complaint is the price, since I'm a firm believer that you should be able to save on mascara and still look good. I am impressed, though, so maybe I'll have to do my part to help the economy along when this mascara runs out...
I have to say that I found this product a bit difficult to use at first...trying to apply the mascara while holding down the button was a bit tricky. But once you get the hang of it its pretty neat and fast to apply. The first time I applied it, it made my lashes look great...very long and full...but the second time not so much, maybe thats cause I was having a hard time with the button. Overall, its a good product and I recommend trying it.
I am a BIG mascara fan - it is the one product I don't leave home without! My lashes come in semi-blonde, so without it, they barely exist ;) I was excited to try out this mascara as I had heard about it and other vibrating varieties a lot. It took a few tries to get used to: you have to let go of your reflex to wiggle the brush around. After a few tries, I did get the hang of it, and as promised, it did only take one coat. The mascara itself was really long lasting and went on smoothly.
In the end, I will stick with my old-school mascara, but this one packs some punch for a night out!
This mascara was exactly what I expected, the pulse did help distribute the mascara to my finer shorter lashes. I expected it to be louder than it was and I was pleasantly surprised that you really couldn't hear it while it was on. As some of the other reviewers, it did take practice to hold down the button and apply the mascara at the same time but it was nothing that I could not handle. Perhaps they could make a setting where the button holds down automatically if you press it twice or something to alleviate this problem. Otherwise though this product works well and I would buy it again.
This mascara is not what I expected. The vibration doesn't really make any difference to the appearance of your lashes and trying to hold the button while brushing isn't the easiest thing to do! I would definately not purchase this. Better luck next time!
I simply LOVED this mascara! I have never tried anything like it and this stuff is really one of a kind!
I have never tried a vibrating mascara before but know I know I will never go back!
Application: Absolutely ZERO clumps when it comes to this mascara, I had no problems with it at all. It went on really smooth. The vibrations really helped when it came to applying it and made it a lot easier to put on without that risk of missing your eyelash and getting your eyelid instead.
Look: Gorgeous!! It made my eyelashes pop like nothing has ever before. Perfectly spaced eyelashes! Best length I have ever achieved with a mascara! Also really nice volume to it as well. I have never seen a mascara work so well for me before.
Suggestions: The one thing I found that I didn't like about this mascara was that it seemed to be a little more wet than other ones I have used. I've been having a bit of problems applying it and then blinking and finding that it is still wet and gets on my cheeks. So, I would recommend trying not to blink right away!
Also, if you have never tried a vibrating mascara before, I would recommend not going to the base of your eyelashes right away because it's really easy to poke yourself in the eye, I learned the hard way ladies! lol.
I would recommend this stuff to everyone, I think it's an overall great mascara for a spiced up day look or a dressy evening look! It's now my ultimate favorite mascara.
