    Yuck. Clumps, smudges and is awful to get off. Don't be tempted by the claims and packaging! Especially since it now says "New Waterproof and Lasting". It is not new and it is still as crappy!...

    I'm surprised at the low reviews for this. It's nothing to rave about but didn't think it was that bad. To it's credit it's very black, lengthens and hold a curl. It's very wet when you apply it...

    CRAP. This mascara smudges so badly. I have non-waterproof mascaras with much better staying power! There was SO much mascara under my eyes within a few hours, I looked like a raccoon. My lashes...

    I've been using Black Brown Waterproof voluminous forever and it's perfect but there's just something weird about the Carbon Black kind. No matter what I get raccoon eyes. It's weird because this...

    EDIT: I had to completely edit this because although it looks nice when first applied, 1) it smudges horribly after a few hours and 2) really is difficult to remove, even with great eye makeup...

    Bummer - I was so excited to try this - the regular waterproof Voluminous is pretty much all I wear, and I was hoping this would be a new/improved/darker black version - NOPE! I did a side by side...

    This stuff is a nightmare for me. I tried to love it, but it's going into the trash. First, it smudges. I have oily skin, but I've never had trouble with other waterproof mascaras smudging. But...

    I'm a big fan of Voluminous so I thought I would give this a try. I wasn't in love with the formula. It is goopier and the worst part is though I wash it off before I go to bed there is residue...

    I gave this mascara 2 lippies because I do like the thickness and volume it gives my lashes and I love the brush, however, it is NOT waterfproof!!! The last 2 days of wearing this I noticed racoon...

    The great part about the mascara is that it thickened and darkened my lashes. But it uncurled my lashes!

    One of my favorites. I'm on my second tube, and I love it, it gives me good volume, thickness, and length. It last all day, no smudging, it does flake a little on my lower lashes, but when I clean...

    This is my second try at a L'Oreal mascara. I reviewed the Voluminous Naturale and hated it! I was really disappointed with that and was expecting the same result with this mascara or even worse....

    This is the worst waterproof mascara I have ever tried! I bought the original a while back but I decided I didn't like it because it wasn't waterproof. When I saw the waterproof version last...
