I bought this out of curiosity since I love the maybelline cat eyes mascara in waterproof. The bottle itself is really cute and I liked that the formula was on the drier side since it hold my...

It's better than most mascaras. But what I didn't like about this one in particular was the wand, it was too big & ended up making the application of this messy, especially on the lower lashes....

Packaging: HUGE brush. I guess that's why it's called Colossal? But the problem with the brush is that it's so big that when I swipe it on my lashes, it goes all over my lids! They ruin my...

Hated this. Really hated this. The brush is so frigging big and I don't like the fact that it almost poked me in the eyes. And it broke off the wand after two days. Formula is wet and most of...

Ever since they took the classic volume express off the market I've been searching for a perfect mascara. I liked the pumped one better than any of them. It gives me good volume and length. Also it...

For me this is a decent mascara. In my opinion it is a more dryer formula, and it didn't take long for it to dry out and get flaky. For me it doesn't lengethen or voluminous much for my lashes but...

It's a decent mascara but the wand is SO big which makes it hard to work with. You have to be really careful, or it will end up on your lids. I will use it up but wont repurchase.

I have tried quite a few different mascaras—including many others from Maybelline—and this one is by far my favorite. I originally saw it on a YouTube video (don't remember which), and since my...

I bought this mascara after watching a Jaclyn Hill video and thought that I would love it. I do like it on those days where mascara is the only makeup I wear but it really doesn't give me those...

I first heard about this when I was watching a YouTube video (I think it was Tati's). We don't get the full Maybelline range in Singapore so I could never find it. When I saw it on a trip to Tokyo,...

This mascara flakes, and did not lengthen; did not stay on my work day. The applicator was horrible - bristles flattened. Never ever will buy this ever again

I love this mascara! It lengthens and volumizes my lashes.. I curl my lashes first before applying and it keeps them curled all day with minimal flaking. My only complaint is that I work 12 hour...

The wand is a little bulky but it's fine. This mascara works just as well as the regular colossal mascara. I have long lashes and both of these mascaras thicken my eyelashes nicely. No complaints! :)
