The brush is large and somewhat awkward to work with. This mascara did add volume and thickness to my lashes but I found it too clumpy. I won't be repurchasing this mascara.

I found the formula dried stiff, the brush was hard to use because it was so big, and I sure as heck didn't feel 9x more voluminous. I get way better results from my L'Oreal Voluminous mascara. And is it me or does it smell chemical-y?? *gag*

Dried out really quick and smelled like pen ink ? lol. I did find my lashes more volumized though. It worked well for about a week, thats not including the horrid smell.

The Mascara itself is OK .. its does make my lashes look fuller, but not like Lash Blast. I ended up giving this to my mother because I couldn't stand the smell! Smells like Rose Scented Ink lol.. and the smell is STRONG ! It doesn't seem to go away.

I find it dries and flakes off after a few hours... if I even go near my eyes for a little scratch I get black flakes all over my cheeks.

And yes, the smell is SO weird! Really strong!!

I didn't like the smell either. Plus, it didn't hold as much or add as much volume as I thought it would. But then again, I'm Asian so regular mascara doesn't work as well on me.

Buy again: negative, ghostrider.

it didn't live up to the hype, that's pretty much my only beef with it. i think there's alot of drugstore mascaras that deliver what they promise, this one just doesn't...
