Maybelline Volum' Express Mega Plush Review

I was totally unsure what to expect from this mascara, after reading quite mixed reviews. But I ended up really liking it!

There are several things about the Maybelline Volum' Express Mega Plush mascara which are different from other mascaras I've tried. First of all I noticed the brush was super flexible and bendy - still not sure if I like that! It's supposed to allow for a more gentle application of product, but I actually feel like it just takes longer to get the amount of mascara I want on my lashes. The plus side of this is that it prevents accidentally getting too much product on in one go.

The second unusual thing which I noticed was the formula, which initially appears a lot less heavy and thick than normal formulas. Once again, this allows for a more gentle and even build up, but also takes ages to get a more dramatic look.

Will use up the whole mascara, but don't think I will be repurchasing.

I was looking for a new mascara and the packaging on this won me over I loved the colour of the bottle.

However I go to use it and I hate it!! Well.. that's not entirely correct... I love the formula. I love the brush.

I hate the wand!! It has this little notch in it and when you apply the mascara it makes the brush bounce around a flick everywhere! It makes me so mad because I have to spend double the time on my lashes to get the coverage I want! Grrr! I don't even understand WHY they did this??? It only serves to make application ten times harder than it has to be! Sad disappointment!

I will use it again though, because I have nothing else to use. If it wasnt for that darned notch it would have been perfect!!

Like most girls, I love Maybelline for their mascaras. So i immediately purchased this upon seeing it at Farmers. However, I was disappointed because it does not dry easily, smudged and it was a pain to clean up. It did not produce dramatic results. I usually do not need to curl my lashes before putting mascara on with this product I had to curl it for the desired effect.

I'm not usually a fan of Maybelline mascaras, and this was no different. I feel like for me, the wand was too flimsy and just didn't do anything amazing to my lashes. I've found better mascaras from cheaper brands (such as Jordana best lash), so I have no intention of buying again. The only thing I do like about this mascara is the colour combo on the packaging, and that isn't enough to waste $30+ on.

I brought this as I love Maybelline mascaras. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy this mascara. The product is made to not dry your lashes out. Although it does what it says as a result I found the product smudged very easily and that is a big no no for me. I also thought it didn't give enough length it was more of a natural look. The brush itself I found okay and i did get a small amount of volume. I wouldn't purchase again and would not recommend this to others. A bit unimpressed as all of the other Maybelline mascaras I have used I enjoyed.

Well, i'm sad to to say after being sold on the packaging I was not impressed with the Maybelline Volum' Express Mega Plush.

This product would have probably been great, if the brush wasn't bendable. This unfortunately prevented most of the product going on to my eyelashes as pushing the brush against my eyelashes only caused it to bend away and not connect with my eyelashes at all. It kind of felt like it wasn't applying much product at all due to this, and after a few attempts my eyelashes were still not covered in mascara.

I've used a range of similar products, but the had a fixed bent want instead of one that bent as you applied. The brush itself was a good size, and using the product with a different brush was great but I wasn't sold on this, and won't be rebuying.

I've brought many Maybelline mascaras in the past, as they seem to make fantastic mascaras at a reasonable price. I normally use "Maybelline Falsies", but when I ran out I decided to try something new..and this was it!

The packaging comes in a funky aqua blue colour, it just looks fun and modern. I love how it's easy to spot in my makeup bag, due to the colour.

The brush of this mascara is good quality and easy to use, lots of bristles and easily glides over your lashes. It coats the lashes well and adds volume.

Another plus is that it feels lovely on my eyes. Some mascaras can sting and irritate my eyes, but not this mascara.

However the downside of this mascara is it doesn't seem to add length, like my other Maybelline mascaras do. That's the main thing I look for in a mascara, to give me long, feminine lashes. But, this mascara really didn't create the effect I wanted.

Also, I found after the end of the day this seemed to smudge slightly. I think the formula of this mascara is slightly different to other mascaras I have tried.

Overall, this is probably my least favourite mascara in the Maybelline range. I find Maybelline Falsies considerably better.

It was great to try this, but I won't be repurchasing in the future.

This product is 'average'. Not the best, not the worst. It seems to add some fullness, but wheres the length? wheres the curl? Good for a day mascara, but not for a night out. Application of the mascara is quite difficult due to the bendy brush. Honestly, very hard to apply! Make the most of what you have - I curl my eye lashes as well. I would not get again. I want a product that has it all. This product doesn't.

I was unsatisfied with this mascara because i have short lashes and even though i brushed from base to tip it didn't give me the desired look i was expecting
