This mascara has been on the market for 50 years and is still going strong. The black is a true solid colour and enhances the colour of your lashes. This is good for beginners to use and is excellent on the budget. The brush is the original spooly type and coats lashes nicely without clumps. A good basic mascara. Found in most supermarkets.

Budget friendly mascara
I’ve been using this recently as I’m on a tighter budget, and it’s not bad for the price. Not amazing, but does the job.
Tips: A decent enough mascara if you are on a budget.

Does as it should
I purchased this mascara when I was in Whangarei for a wedding. It worked amazing for 1 day and then the heat and humidity ruined the texture of the mascara. It became runny and applied clumpily.
Tips: Keep in a cool area or it'll become runny

Maybe it’s me
I always see this mascara getting awards year after year (or at least it feels like it) and can never understand the hype. This was my very first mascara and I’ve bought it many times over the year out of nostalgia and curiosity only to end up with panda eyes and regret. It had me online looking for all the hacks but no matter what I do, I still end up with more on my face then my eye lashes at the end of the day.

Could be better!
I mean, this used to be the holy grail when I was younger. Unfortunately when using it now, it is not as good when comparing to other mascaras. I always am up for trying new mascaras. This one does as it should and is a cheaper option for some people. I do find that it comes off and you can be left with panda eyes. Used to be great for my emo days but now? Not a look.
Tips: Definitely do two coats.

Good basic mascara
This is a good average mascara for everyday wear, but it didn't cover as good as I would have liked. The brush is average. Maybe ok for a Teens first mascara.

Teens first bestfriend
This was the 1st mascara I ever used in my teens, such a staple mascara for teens as the colors just draw you to buy it. It did the job then, but there are so many mascaras now that do the job better but to be honest, for old times sake I'd probably still buy this to make me feel young again since I'm now 31 lol.

Good at going on, but smudges
Love how it goes on my lashes, but it smudges! I end up with smudges on the top of my eyes, under brow bone and also under my lower lash line, Super annoying!!
Tips: Maybe don't use oil based skincare? Perhaps a powder around your eyes might help. To be honest, not for me.

The wand is awesome
I'm using this mascara at the moment I find the wand is great to get all those little lashes that are easy to miss with the thicker wands. Its perfect for the first coat to get those lashes exactly how you want them positioned.

I brought this mascara as it was really cost effective and had been recommended by a friend. It's simple and goes on easily. It doesn't clump as you apply it which is great. It doesn't ever seem to dry out in the bottle which is great (although it means you probably keep it far longer than you should!). It's also available pretty much everywhere which means it's my go too if I ever have to buy some mascara on the fly. It's not the most amazing mascara in terms of results I've ever tried but it's not bad.
