I love maybelline mascaras, and the formula of this one is amazing. But I don't like the brush. It is big and clumpy and it gets product all over your lids. Although, now that I have hardly any product left in it- it is amazing at separating my lashes and I always use it as a base for my mascara!!

Amazing
I absolutely loved this product and the result. Full thick lashes, no clumping. Only reason I stopped using it was that the company tested on animals.

My beautiful Eyelashes
I am currently Maybelline Volum' Express the Colossal and absolutely loving it. I was not happy with my previous one as it used to stick my lashes together and would form some tiny lumps. I was looking for a good mascara and luckily bought this one. I have short eye lashes and normally do not like to use fake ones. I am glad with my selection as this mascara makes my lashes long and beautiful. It brushes my each lash making it prominent.
Tips: Always read reviews to select good product and you don't have to regret.

Wow Factor
This is one of my favourite mascaras! I can even use it without first curling my lashes, and it helps lift them on it's own.
Great with one coat or more dramatic if a couple coats used. I don't get too much clumping and helps define my lashes whilst still giving them a thicker, more full look. Washes off well at the end of the day also.
Price is fairly normal for it's range. Great if you can get on special though.
Tips: To make it go further, don't pump the wand in your mascara bottle but rather turn/twist the brush in the bottle to prevent air getting in and drying the mascara.

Colossal Lashes
I have been using this product for a number of years I love the big brush it has and its super easy to apply to all lashes I always go for black, and I do about 3 coats for along lasting dramatic look It works really well at separating your lashes and leaves no clumps Easy to wash off at the end of the day Can be purchased for a great price from leading supermarkets and department stores Definitely recommend this Mascara to all

My go to
This is my usual go to. Have been using it for years and it's the one I always come back to after trying something else. I wouldn't say it is one coat magic and it has a bit of a smell but it's not foul so it's fine. Just need a few coats to build beautiful, voluminous lashes.
Tips: Build your lashes with at least 3 coats to get the colossal effect.

FAVOURITE MASCARA EVER!
Looking at the reviews I decided to try this mascara and have tried a lot of different mascaras hoping to find "The One" and the majority were really good but this one is fantastic! Why I didn't try it earlier eludes me but all I can say is WoW. My lashes look so much longer giving me the eye pop that I have craved. The formula is clump free and gives volume, well I got this and length too. I didn't have any running and we have had some pretty hot days lately. This mascara is permanently staying in my make up kit I just love it.
Tips: If you haven't tried this give it a go I'm sure you'll be impressed.

Great mascara
One coat is all you need to get voluminous lashes. No nasty clumps or smudging. Just beautiful looking lashes. This mascara is also budget friendly.

An Oldie But A Goodie!
One of the original mascaras I think we have all tried at some stage. An oldie but a goodie!
Volumizing formula that separates your lashes nicely and gives the appearance of added length due to the lashes being lifted.
A very durable formula that seems to stay put well. The wand is on the medium to larger size so could be harder to apply on small/short lashes.
Tips: Zig zag the mascara through your lashes to ensure the most volumized lash look and reduce excess product giving a clumpy appearance.

This stuff is awful it makes my eyelashes all clumpy and cakey looking. I bought this mascara reluctantly (I'm not a Maybelline fan) after hearing so many amazing reviews on blogs and YouTube.
I'm probably one of the rare few that find this mascara horrible but no matter what I do I cannot make it look good on me. When I wear it it flakes off in clumps and gets in my eye. My eyelashes look horrible with this mascara on and would not use it ever again. I really dislike the formula I find it very dry and will continue to use my Benefit They're Real and L'Oreal Carbon Black Telescopic mascaras.
