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.

Clumpy
Unfortunately when I used this mascara it left clumps on my lashes and I also found it looked like I caked it on when I only used a little bit so I stopped using it.

Tried and True
This mascara was my first ever mascara that I owned. It probably does better as a more natural mascara and since, I have moved on to bolder and more dramatic mascaras. But I thought this was a great first mascara in my early teen years as you only want a light, natural look.
Tips: Make sure to replace after 3 months as it does dry up a bit towards the end so coverage isn't always optimal.

Not for me
I remember this being the first mascara I ever used, I brought a new one last year but it didn't live up to the memories unfortunately. It smudged really easily and just didn't do much for my lashes.

I remember this being amazing!
I remember loving this mascara when I was younger but when I tried it again about a year ago it was definitely not as good as it used to be. This is a very basic mascara. It does as it says and does not clump up however, it doesn't really do anything for your lashes it doesn't volumize, lengthen or anything like that it just like taking some wet gel eyeliner and coating your eyelashes in it. I think this would be good as someones very first mascara or for a beginner.

Good...but hard to use!
I find this mascara is great, but hard to use. You have to put on at least 3-4 coats to get that end result your looking for!!

Great Lash Mascara
It is good when you want a natural length eyelashes but it does dry out and make your eyelashes hard
Tips: Wipe the brush often as clumps stick to it

Not for me.
I brought it because it was on sale. All i can say is it didn't do the trick for me. It did not look nice and it did did not last all day.

On the fence about this one.
All of my friends rav on and on about this mascara. It does work well sometimes, but other times it makes my eyelashes go into all kinds of directions and leaves me looking like a crazy wide eyed lady. Sometimes I get watery eyes and if I have this mascara on it really really burns and makes my eyes even more watery and blood shot. Its great when its great and it is really bad when its bad.
Tips: I don't recommend this to people with sensitive eye's as it can burn sometimes.

It’s an average massacre. A bit messy to apply then tends to smudge during the day. Panda eyes not really the look I’m going for. Didn’t want to stay on my lashes.
