It's weird because when I first started using it, I couldn't get it to work for me whatsoever. But in the past couple of months, I've started to try it again and I'm finding it's working better than some of the other mascaras I'm used to. Holds curl and doesn't smudge on me!

personally I like it, because i'm not huge on super big lashes... I prefer a more natural look. I use the straight brush version because I could never get the curved brush to work well for me... It works really well when it's brand new, unfortunately it kinda gets more clumpy towards the end of the tube... Can anyone reccomend a mac mascara which is more natural looking but a bit more fluid like.. thanks

It's great for editorial work because it goes on super black and stays wet looking, which makes the lashes look really lush in photographs. For regular real life use though, YMMV.

I've heard that several celebs use it too...and a lot of people like it. It's certainly been around forever.

I've used it before and I think the MASCARA is OK, but the WAND that it comes with - STINKS!

For me, this mascara sucked! I had major fallout, just flakes and flakes of black all over. Even the Full N Soft just turned to dust on me. I swear by Prep+Prime lash + Zoomblack. It makes my lashes look fake!

I quite like it for everyday use as I don't like huge lashes for work or if I'm going for a more natural look. I can't go out without mascara and this one gives just enough length etc without being too much. And it's cheap

I never understood why people loved this so much until I tried the curved brush. It's pretty much amazing. The straight brush doesn't do anything for me but it doesn't flake either.

I love Great lashs curved brush mascara. I've been using it for years. It does the job great for me.

I used to not like it, but I just started using it again (since I bought it) and it actually seems to really lengthen my eyelashes and make my eyes pop. I personally like it, although there are other mascaras I like more.. (My favorites are Pro Lash and Clinique High Impact)

i have tried it time and again over many years and am consistantly dissapointed. i too kept thinking it was me.
then i went back to my old reliable loreal voluminous.
i remeber mascara shopping at heni bendel once and they were out of my then hg, and the girl said"why don't you just stop by dwayne reed and pick up some loreal voluminous,it is the BEST!" i cracked up inside!

i do have to say lancome definicils is the best i have used, but not in the budget at over $30 a pop.

i would love to try diorshow and badgal lash since it is spoken so highly of here by some highly respected people

i'm pretty much a mascara junkie so here's my two cents:

fave high-end fave mascara: shu's basic black. i got a CP from someone in japan and i absolutely love it. it does wonders for my wimpy asian lashes. i just curl my lashes a little, apply the mascara and bam, i have eyes that actually stand out.

fave d/s mascara:
l'oreal's panoramic curl in waterproof. absolutely great stuff.

fave d/s "natural look" mascara:
maybelline's full 'n soft

discontinued d/s fave: maybelline's lash expansion. it had a slightly tapered brush and i absolutely loved it while it was around. i don't know if this was just discontinued in canada or just in ontario. if anyone has it at their d/s...please let me know!


high-end disappointment:
lancome's hypnose (waterproof formula). it really does make your lashes thicker and whatever but i find it waaaay too thick. it looks piled on and is unbelievably hard to get off--even with a good makeup remover.

d/s disappointment: maybelline's lash stylist. the brush did absolutely nothing for me.

They still have this mascara in the US. You can buy it online at walgreens.com. Here is the link:

Here are other sites that have Maybelline products. I don't know if they ship to Canada or not though.
