I’ve used this mascara time and time again hoping that it would work for me because I definitely need volume with my rather thin lashes, but I also need length and a mascara that holds a curl. This mascara was a miss for me because the formula is quite wet compared to other mascaras, and does not work well on lashes like mine. When you apply a wet mascara on lashes like mine, it weighs the lash down and the curl disappears. It does however, have a good voluminising effect though but it may clump easily if not applied right. As the formula is quite wet, it dries quite slowly and can therefore smudge easily if you are not careful. This mascara is not waterproof, water resistant or smudge proof, so if you wear this on a hot day and are prone to getting hot easily like me, then it may smudge under your eyes.

I’ve mentioned before that not everyone’s lashes are the same and therefore one mascara that works for someone may not work as well on someone else. So this isn’t a great mascara for me, but it may be a good mascara for someone who has naturally long, curly lashes that just needs some volume. I’m not sure if they have a waterproof version of this mascara, but I only use this mascara on my lower lashes because it weighs them down and makes them more visible.
