this mascara definitely creates "big" lashes ! I can see a difference when I use it! this product is so affordable and lasts long , you don't have to use too many coats to see a difference

Gives you big luscious lashes for a super cheap price! this mascara is great as it doesn't clump and holds the curl really well! I was also suprised how long it lasted, no touch ups!

I always buy the Waterproof version of mascara's as I've heard they hold a curl better. I bought this to layer under my Holy Grail lengthening mascara for added volume and never expected much from it as I was never going to use it on its own-but boy did this mascara surprise me.

It does not clump and the brush combs through my lashes nicely. It adds volume and makes my eyes look large and doe-like. Admittedly my curl has fallen after a full night out with friends which includes dinner, a movie (or two) and general messing about, but all this does is have me go from a clean doe-eyed look, to a lived in cat-eyed look, which isn't bad at all.

This is one of the best mascaras I've used! You great thick, long lashes when applied and it lasts all day! This may be a bit more flaky than other mascaras, I still find it stays full for the whole day! I put tons of coats on and it holds the curl of your lashes

After reading the reviews of this on beauty bulletin, I went out and bought this mascara. At R30, I really had nothing to lose. And I absolutely love it. I would replace every high end mascara I own with this one. The tube is huge. It will last me ages. It definitely gives you great lashes! Your lashes are long and natural looking. Although its not advertised as a mascara that gives you the false lash effect, it really does that. It does not give you an extreme amount of volume but it definitely lengthens. You need to apply a few layers before you see a difference in volume. The mascara does dry quite quickly though but I love this because I am always applying my makeup in a hurry.
Im also a sucker for cute packaging and the logo on this tube just really stands out. Love this mascara and I would repurchase it over and over again.

I love this mascara.

I have the Get BIG Lashes mascara in the blue tube. It's the same as the black one but it's waterproof as well.

In my experience, almost none of the high end mascaras out there work as they're advertised to. Being essence, i didn't expect this to work very well and actually give me 'Big lashes'. I tried it anyway and it wasn't all that bad. Like Jenna said, it's useful for everyday wear.
