Maybelline Great Lash Mascara Review

Another Maybelline product I bought because I clearly watch and trust YouTube far too much :(

As mentioned before I'm really not into Maybelline products as the formulas seem to look rubbish on me and this mascara is sadly no exception.

I find neither the wand or formula does anything for my lashes and it looks like I dont really have anything on when I'm wearing it as all it does is darken my lashes. I find it near impossible to build this product in order to create volume and length and all the wand does it hurt my lashes.

I bought the mascara recently and have thrown it away as I have no desire to use it again not even on my lower lashes.

I am currently using this mascara and really like it. Its a great simple mascara. Very affordable. It's quite hard to get off.

Having read lots of glowing reviews about Maybelline Great Lash mascara I was so excited to think that such a cheap mascara was so perfect...and then I tried it...This is one of the worst mascaras I've ever used. It clumped and and my eyelashes stuck together. It irritated my eyes and made them itchy and within a couple of hours I had more mascara smudged under my eyes than on my lashes. Very disappointing.The only good thing I can say about this is that I like the retro look of the tube.

I flipping love this mascara and will continue to have one of these in my make up case for as long as I have eyelashes! I use all sorts of mascaras but this one I know will go on and stay on! I always have to remember NOT to wear this product when I am having anything done to my lashes because it takes forever to remove it! I love that about this mascara!!

So I bought this yesterday and I have worn twice (last night and today) and unfortunately it isn't a biggy for me. It darkened my lashes as it said it would but it made them look all spidery, it flaked and didn't set as fast as I would have liked. I must admit for $14 I really shouldn't be complaining but I think next time I'd rather spend an extra $5 and get a decent mascara. It has lasted me all day without smudging, irritating my eyes or flaking off but it's dead obvious my eyes have a bad mascara on them. Except my bottom lashes look natural so at least it has an upside. The top lashes don't even look remotely natural. I should have read the reviews before purchasing. I would not purchase this again unless it was a last resort. Once this tubes empty I'm going back to covergirl lashblast.

Back when I was even younger, I never knew how to buy makeup and just bought whatever is cheap and has 'good claims'. I thought it was good back then but when I think about it, it wasn't that great. It was just clumpy and smudged a lot.

I had such high hopes, after hearing opinions on this product - that it was one of the classics, stood the test of time, etc etc. So in a supermarket emergency dash one day, I selected this out of the many options available, remembering that my flatmate swore by it.

I just can't see why this has cult status; maybe I got a dud tube, because it just didn't seem to set and I ended up with flecks of mascara under my eyebrows, from my natural curl. The mascara applies smoothly, but doesn't volumise, just darkens. The brush is small, so takes ages to apply to long lashes; was kind of handy to use on bottom lashes, but even that smudged off onto my bottom lid throughout the day.

One good thing, is it's easy as anything to take off, just cleanser did the trick. Bad side of that is, it seemed to come off my lashes at the drop of a hat. Don't even get me started on what happened when I wore it to gym and sweated like crazy. Panda express.

Well i seem to have gone back to my old faithful mascara. Every time i try a new one i don't like it. This one has a small wand to get right to the corners, only need one or two coats, its smudge and waterproof and I wake up after leaving it on without panda eyes, So yes to me it passes that test. I think this is one of the better mascaras out theses days and its awesome when you can buy it in the double pack : )

I don't really like this mascara for my top lashes as i don't feel like it gives me a good enough result, however it is really good for bottom lashes cos it doesn't put too much product on or make them look spidery. Probably wouldn't repurchase for this though.

This mascara is great by itself or used in layers. I find that when used alone it gives a nice natural look but when layered it can be used to create a more dramatic look. I would recommend this product to people beginning with make up as it is good quality and easy to apply :)
