    This mascara is terrible for smudging. It claims to be waterproof and definitely is not. It's a shame because it gives such a beautiful fullness to the lashes. It's not worth the raccoon eyes it...

    I have super oily lids and my eyes tear a lot. Therefore, a waterproof mascara formula is a must. I've used the Waterproof L'Oreal Voluminous for years. So, when I first saw this on the...

    I too am suprised by the bad reviews on this mascara. I really like it :) I normally used the regular voluminous waterproof mascara, so this was just blacker and it seems almost thicker. I don't...

    Horrid! I should have read the reviews before buying this mascara! It smudges under my eyes so badly - total raccoon look. I thought I'd be safe with this because I LOVE the regular Voluminous...

    Horrid. I strongly suggest not buying it. I have never gotten raccoon eyes with ANY mascara of any brand in my life, until this one. I buy waterproof and it STILL gave me that, first in my life,...
