Wow...just, wow!

This mascara has been so hyped up on YouTube and social media, so being the makeup addict that I am I had to see what the fuss was about!

The brush on this mascara is very unique. It has plastic bristles, as opposed to the 'hairs' that some mascara brushes have. This means that the mascara doesn't seem to clump on the brush, always a winner (although I think a fluffier brush gives fluffier lashes). The brush delivers mega volume and curl in only a couple of swipes with very little need to pfaff around- perfect for rushed mornings.

I have naturally reasonably long lashes but love a mascara which gives me the volume I need, curl that will last all day, and the ability to stay on my lashes and not end up all over my eyelid/undereye area. I picked this up in the waterproof version (a must for oily lids) and boy did it deliver on all accounts. My lashes looked almost as good at the end of the day as they did when my mascara was freshly applied. No flaking, no fallout, but yet this was still a bit easier to remove than They're real- usually the only mascara which will last all day on me.

I am so impressed with this mascara, I really do believe this lives up to the hype! Will be recommending this to others absolutely!

New Holy Grail

Guys, I think this might be it! My holy grail search for a mascara has ended!

This mascara has done everything for me and beyond, and I am not exaggerating at all. I always evaluate mascara to a very strict set of criteria

- does it hold curl?

- is it ACTUALLY waterproof?

- does it separate lashes and not make them clump looking?

- does it add length and volume equally?

Maybelline Lash Sensational did all of the above - it seems like the perfect combination of the mascaras that I love but aren't 100%. Think CG clump crusher but with curl, L'Oreal Million lashes with non-flakiness, and most importantly the fail-proof Maybelline waterproof formula!

Okay so lets get into why this is mascara is so good! The brush is curved with rubber (not bristley) bristles which makes each lash evenly coated and defined. The tapered shape allows for amazing coverage for the outer lashes as well.

But wait! One side of the brush also has these shorter length bristles which are the perfect length for lower lashes so you don't stab your eye - what is this magic?!

Okay next is the formula - true to the amazing waterproof mascaras that maybelline produces this is no different. The formula is actually waterproof (so great for contact lens wearers), holds a curl. doesn't make your lashes crispy looking and most importantly doesn't clump!

I love this mascara so much, I can't believe I waited this long to try it out!

Tips: use the shorter length bristles for your lower lashes!

One of my faves!

This is one of my favourite mascara from Maybelline. With all honesty, Maybelline produces really good mascara. I like all the mascara's that I've tried from them. What I love about this mascara is you can put up to 3 layers without it looking clumpy. It makes my lashes look fuller and longer which I really love that's why this is one of the mascara's I have that I use most of the time.

Very strong competitor

I found this mascara really good apart from the fact that it was quite a thin formula which caused it to clump of my lashes when I was trying to get length. I now just use it for my bottom lashes since I've got lash extensions

5 Stars!!!

I got this from America. I absolutely love it. I am not usually a huge fan of Maybelline products but if I see my fave youtubers/ snapchatters raving about something . . . I have to have it myself. It has an awesome brush that I find so easy to use for my eye shape. It is great to add and build volume to the top lashes. It doesn't go flakey or clumpy. I love the way it makes my natural lashes look before applying false lashes and mist of the time I will do away with the false Lashes and just rock the natural because the mascara gives such a beautiful natural flare look. Pros: Affordable, Applies Well, Waterproof version is very waterproof and it gives beautifully full looking lashes Cons: nil

Sensational - Understatement!

Oh. My. Goodness.

This mascara is my new holy grail.

I purchased this over the weekend after debating whether or not I re-purchase Falsies - Flared for the third time.

I am so glad that I did! The formula of this mascara is one of the cleanest I have ever used and the stiff bristles on the brush separate your lashes perfectly - no lash comb needed!

Over the course of a day I found that Falsies started crumbling and peeling off my lashes, but this stays put. 12 hours later and it hasn't budged. (For reference, I purchased the non-waterproof version.)

This will be my new holy grail everyday mascara, literally THE BEST drugstore item in my collection, and it has super pretty packaging as well. Fantastic!

Tips: Use the short side of the brush for your bottom lashes and the long side to add extra curl to your top lashes.

HG status!

Maybelline have done it again with this mascara!!! I've fallen completely in love with this product and would put it up there with my other HG mascara (unsurprisingly also from Maybelline), Colossal Volum Express in waterproof.

Lash Sensational not only defines each and every one of your lashes, but provides mega volume and length. I absolutely love that it doesn't clump, keeps the curl of your lashes, and doesn't give off an overly fake spidery effect. If you're into everything I've just stated, I promise you will not regret buying this product. I would definitely repurchase this in a heartbeat. At this rate, I feel like Maybelline should just hire me as one of their mascara endorsers.

Tips: Curl your lashes before and after application to provide the maximum volumised and defined look!

Pretty packaging

I really wasn't a fan of this mascara when I first started using it, it was sooo wet and the brush really just isn't my cup of tea, it's curved and plastic with pretty sparse bristles so this combo would leave my lashes all stuck together and the end result made me look like I had 5 lashes per eye.

I then tried it with a different mascara brush and much preferred the result. It provides a good bit of volume and length without pesky clumps that can come with drier formulas. At this point I think how well a mascara works for you is just as much to do with the brush as it is the formula.

I love this mascara because even though I got the non-waterproof version it doesn't transfer/flake etc. It is a bit of a struggle to get off, so it may as well be waterproof, haha. It doesn't hold a curl very well on its own but I use my Estee Lauder mascara primer underneath mascaras for curl 99% of the time anyway.

The pink packaging is super cute and I will repurchase if it's on sale, as it's not a mascara I need, but it is good.

Tips: If you have a brush that you love from a prior mascara, clean it and use it with this one!

Great product

I really like this mascara. I have tried a lot of brands, with varying kinds of brushes, and the brush on this is really good. I have funny lashes that stick out at various angles, and my lashes are also various lengths. Having 2 different lengths of bristles on the wand really does help reach all the awkward lashes, and to fan them out into a nice arch.

The product is good. It is nice and thick, and does not dry out too quickly and flake, like other mascaras I have used.

Tips: The bristles on the wand are a flexible rubber, rather than fibre bristles like a brush. I prefer this style of brush, but others may not.

Like it, not love it.

I purchased this mascara after hearing great things. My Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara had arrived and I was disappointed, so I needed something that I could get my hands on quickly, without spending too much money. Maybelline is perfect - it is affordable and available at the supermarket.

The packaging is a standard Maybelline size and shape, but more classier and feminine than their past mascaras. It is solid and easy to hold. The brush is unlike any other mascara brushes I have used or seen - it is quite small, thin and plastic. The bristles are short and spiky, not 'fluffy' like most other Maybelline mascaras. You can see the bristles very clearly, they don't have mascara clumped on them.

This mascara performs.. well. Good, but not great. I like it, but don't love it. It separates and lengthens my lashes and there is zero clumping or fall out. It is a deep black and lasts all day. It is easy to apply and can be built up. However there is no wow factor for me, I wasn't amazed at my lashes, but they certainly looked nice.

I probably won't repurchase this mascara, simply because I would like to keep searching for my holy grail, however this is likely to be more a case of personal preferences and individual needs.

Tips: This mascara works best with the 'wiggle' 'zig zag' action.
