L'Oreal Shocking Volume Mascara
Packaging=3
Performance=4
Price Value=5
Buy again-most likely

This mascara is another one of those two steppers, however it is a billion times better than the Maybelline one (which I hate with the deepest of hates) The primer goes on smoothly, and feathers lashes pretty well, and the colour part is a comb instead of a brush. I find it makes my lashes clump less than a brush would, and I tend to favour combs because it helps me separate. I am not a huge huge fan of 2 steps, but this one is the best I've tried so far of the drugstore vareity.

The packaging gets a 3 because I feel the brushes are a wee bit short for application. (I'd like to add I did a scale out of 5, not 10-it's my first review. Sorry)

Buy again - there's a good chance

This mascara works well but it does tend to clump my eyelashes together a lot if I'm not careful. The primer works nicely, however the eyelashes, while having a lot of volume, kind of over separate and look really weird. But if you apply it properly it can look good.

Would you buy this product again? No!

i wasn't too fond of this mascara. the primer works pretty well, but i hated the wand that the black side came with. this mascara would always clump, no matter how careful i was. i almost decided to keep it just for the primer, but after it sat lonely in my traincase for a couple months, i decided to chunk it.

Buy again- no way!
Overall-2

This went really clumpy and was ineffective for my lashes. The packaging is an inconvenient shape also. One of the worst I have ever used!

Buy again=Oh yeah

Well first and foremost pricing ah 13 bucks here in ny of course totally offordable compared to the competition. Its a duo for 13bucks. I have long full lashes and this does it for me. Does begin to clump up IF you pump you wand instead of swirling it. But I think I have mastered it. Do one eye at a time don't let it set with the primer. I learned this trick rushing onto the bus one day lol it came out so much better
