I like this version of Colossal much better than the regular one. It seems to hold a curl better and stand up stronger to smudging and not dry out as fast. I know some don't care for the brush, but...

I was not a fan of Maybelline mascaras but I have to say that I really like this one. My lashes are average long, thin, sparse and stick straight. I had to test many mascaras to learn that most of...

I've been using this mascara for about three weeks and do not like it. It comes out very 'gloppy', and it's almost impossible to apply without clumps. I spend much more time than I care to...

I like this mascara. Reading the other reviews, I have to admit that yes it does clump but if I am careful on the application my lashes are nice and thick. I can't complain about the price...

By far my HG mascara. Bought like 5 from Wal-Mart before moving to Holland where the same mascara sells for 14 euros a pop! Regarding the mascara, I love the waterproof version most because it...

I'm not really sure how to feel about this product. At first I really enjoyed how large my lashes looked, as the other Maybelline mascaras hadn't quite lived up to the expectations of volume that I...

This was one of the best mascaras I've invested in and for this level of brand. It definitely walks the talk.

I HATED this mascara! It clumped my lashes together and they would get stuck together. It is very hard to get off even with eye makeup remover. I felt like I was going to lose so many lashes each...

This is the only mascara I've found that could make my sparse Asian eyelashes pop. It mostly adds volume like the name says. As with all volumnizing mascara you have to comb thru it so it...

One of the best lengthening & volumizing drugstore mascaras I've tried. I think it's comparable to Cover Girl's Last Blast, but it lengthens slightly better. Holds the curl really well. The only...

When I first got this mascara I hated it. It just didn't make my lashes look good at all. It came out too thick, left little clumps, stuck all my lashes together. After using it for a week or so it...

I love love love this mascara. I prefer this over the cover girl lashblast. I already have long eyelashes, this defines them a lot more, and make them look a lot fuller. Would def repurchase.
