When I first heard about these types of mascaras, I was very intrigued. But now that I have tried this one, I am a little disappointed.

First off the pros:
-doesn't have that chemical smell that some of the recent Maybelline mascaras have had
-my lashes are soft and flexible (not stiff and spidery)
-goes on smoothly

Cons:
- the main feature of the mascara (the vibration) didn't help at all in the application
- had to apply more than 1 coat to cover all my lashes
- I found the vibrations kind of irritating to my eyes
- a bit challenging to hold down the button to make the wand vibrate and apply at the same time

Overall, I think this is an interesting idea, but I think it needs more work to make it worth the almost $20 price tag.

I have to say I am on the fence with this mascara. With the vibrating wand, I only needed a couple strokes to get the effect I was looking for (any more and you run the risk of your eyelashes clumping together). While I was impressed with its easy application, my eyelashes didn't look particularly spectacular. I would say it worked well as a daytime look, lengthening slightly and providing good definition, but I got no "luscious thickness" as promoted on the package. That being said, the mascara wore really well on an extremely hot day, during which I worked out in nearly 30 degree weather and then went to the beach. I didn't get those unsightly smudges under my eyes, which is a huge bonus for me. Overall, I will continue to use this mascara, but I don't think I'll be running out to a buy a new tube when this one runs out!

Well this is the first time i recieved a product from the review club and im very impressed!
Most people laugh when they hear about a mascara with a vibrating wand, but this wand helps make your lashes clump-free. I didn't even apply that many coats and my lashes were thick and full of volume!
This is definately on my Top10 list!!

I was so excited when Chick Advisor sent me the Pulse Perfection to try out! I love trying new kinds of makeup and mascara is a staple in my every day life.
It was easy to use and follow the instructions...no problem there....but when I put the vibrating wand to my eyelashes my eyes instantly watered as the vibration 'tickled' my eyes which are very sensitive to begin with. So after that first try I wiped away the 'tears' and tried again. It still tickled and took a few seconds to get used to. I liked the effect it had on my top lashes but I found it too heavy of an application on my bottom lashes (which some people may like).

The packaging claims it has 7 MUST haves of mascara.

1) Luscious Thickness (I definitely have had mascaras that made my lashes look a lot thicker...this one didn't really make the grade when it came to thickness)

2) Luxurious Length (The length was definitely there and the vibrations extended my lashes nicely)

3) Smooth Separation (Definitely separated my lashes nicely without sticking them together!)

4) Intense Colour (I used Blackest Black...the colour was great..but no different than other mascaras I use)

5) Shapley Curve (I still found I had to use my eyelash curler first in order to get my eyelashes curvy)

6) Healty Luster (ummmm I guess....)

7) Zero Clumps (defintiely no clumping. My lashes stayed nicely separated)

So would I buy this in a store?...probably not, but I'm glad I got the chance to try it. I didn't find this made my lashes stand out and I've definitely used mascaras that did a better job. I personally like thick big lashes...this basically just lengthed them but no thickness...that's my main beef with the mascara. The vibration sounds like a good idea...but I don't think it's anything special another lash definining mascara couldn't do.

Most people wouldn't want anything that vibrates anywhere near their peepers, but Maybelline's Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara may actually be the one thing that you do. I was wary at first of the vibration, but if you let the wand do the work (kind of like an automatic toothbrush) than the result is a flawless application. It went on smooth: no clumps, no heaviness and no mess. The vibration did feel kind of weird, but it can still be applied without it. When I went sans pulse, the results were only that of an average mascara, with maybe a little extra length. It was definitely fun to try the new technology and I would recommend giving it a shot, but when this tube runs out, I probably won't rush out to buy another.

Hurray my first time to receive a product from chick advisor!
I was so excited that the first thing I did was rip the mail open to try out this new gadget!

I must say I'm a little disappointed though. I found that the vibration didn't work very effectively for my top lashes and its better off without it, but it works magnificent for bottom lashes! I guess this is because I have short bottom lashes and if i move my hand too much, mascara gets it on my skin. So the vibration is perfect cause I just keep my hand still and let the wand do the work!

For the bristles:
this mascara comes with stiff plastic bristles which I extremely dislike! The material is very stiff and pointy and it hurts when it brushes against your eyelids. I personally prefer fiber bristles a lot more because it is more flexible and i find that it separates my lashes better. The plastic bristles on this wand didn't do a good job separating my lashes for me. With the vibrations, it made a mess instead.

The Formula:
the formula is thick and on the gloppy side. It clumped some of my eyelashes together to form one big megalash which looks long and full... but also gave a fake and plastic appearance.
So its up to personal preferences if you like the soft and natural effect (not what this product offers) or the full and fake lash effect.

Overall, I would continue using this product. But wouldn't purchase a second tube when this one runs out!

The gadget based world is getting stranger by the day indeed, but simultaneously more and more convenient for your everyday business woman on the go.

I am one of those people who believes that mascara is one item within the woman’s purse that’s a MUST no matter how much make up you wear or do not wear on an average day. So I am generally very picky about how my mascara looks and how effective it tends to be.

Needless to say when I received this innovative technology in my mailbox I was eager to see it in action. And boy, did it provide action! I am thrilled with this product because it made my eyes pop at 8 am which is usually impossible to achieve before my 9 o’clock mocha latte! The vibration wand was easy to handle and the sensation that other reviewers felt in their fingers was obviously expected from the battery power. However, I usually go for that accentuated look during my morning make up ritual and I have got to say this time around there was absolutely no need to blow dry my eyelash curler before applying my mascara, it achieved that final effect allowing me to skip that time-consuming step!

The mascara did not clump during my 8-hour work day and I did not require the banal bathroom checks-ups and touch-ups.

I am absolutely intent on repurchasing this item again in the near future!

The mascara formula was quite liquidy and gloppy but its your average mascara formula from maybelline. I got a few blobs of mascara stuck in my eyelashes and the vibrating wand didn't help at all. I felt the vibrating wand was only vibrating on my fingers while pressing the button. I think zig zagging the mascara wand manually got the mascara on my lashes better. If I felt the wand on my eyelashes, it was fast vibrating feeling. Because the vibrating is so short and quick, it doesn't feel like its actually doing anything but just putting mascara even if the vibrating was off.

Having the vibrating on or off doesn't make much of a difference because I still turned it off and zigzagged manually to get the mascara on the base of the lashes.. etc.

I would not buy this product again nor would I recommend to my friends.

p.s. My fingers pads got a good vibrating massage.

Just received this product in the mail today and couldn't wait to try it. I love it.The little vibration helps the mascara go on evenly and add extra volume to my lashes.No need to buy fake lashes.I love how it isn't messy,its neat going on and gets all my lashes covered with no effort at all.Would make great stocking stuffer for Christmas.

When I heard about this mascara, I thought it sounded very interesting. I had never heard of vibrating mascaras before! Technology sure is getting stranger and stranger. I was very anxious to try the product though, because it sounded like a very good idea. A vibrating brush would mimic the zig zag motions that you would normally do when applying mascara, using much less effort to put it on. Instead of zigzaging the brush, you just hold it up to your lash and go from the root to the tip, and it does the work for you!

First, I will talk about the ease of use. This was very easy to use, it's fool proof. All you do is pull off the plastic tab at the top of the tube of mascara, open the mascara, take the wand out, and press the button at the top when you want it to vibrate. To get it to stop, you release the button. So even if you found the vibration to be a little weird, you could use it as a normal mascara if you wanted, you would just not press the button when doing so. Tada! Very easy!

I really liked this mascara. I didn't need to apply many coats, as just doing a couple of strokes does the work. As a matter of fact, I'm not quite sure if I got the hang of it yet, because my lashes look a tiny bit spidery, so I think I did TOO many strokes. Ladies, you only need to stroke a few times! Once or twice is good!

When you apply this, it tickles your lashes! It was a very funny feeling, but I liked it, hehe.

The mascara coats every lash evenly. It didn't do much for volume, though as I might have made them a bit too spidery, it's hard to tell. It did make them look longer, that's for sure. The mascara's texture is a little hard on the touch, and there were a few clumps, but all in all, it was a nice mascara. I'd say it's a bit above average because it's faster to get a desired effect (because of the vibration). It is also above average because it increases the length nicely.

It gave me the length I desired, though not the volume I wanted. It was easy to use, fast, and very effective. It's definitely on par with the other 2 mascaras I own right now, which are Maybelline Colossal Volum' Express Mascara and Dior's Diorshow mascara, in terms of lengthening. Definitely above average, though I wouldn't say it is my favourite mascara just yet. I'm still on the search.

I would definitely buy this product again, as I believe it was effective and did what it said. I would also recommend this to my friends. It is not only a very interesting concept for a mascara, but it also works!
