I give up on Essence mascaras. I think this was the fourth or fifth kind I tried, and none of them have worked out for me, mostly for the same reasons, from what I remember of the others. This one...

Horrible. From the moment I opened the tube I knew it was going to be awful. I read that this is a tubing mascara which in my experience a tubing mascara TENDS to be a relatively wet formula such...

This mascara doesn't make my lashes look unbelievably great, but my lashes also don't look half bad either with it on. For the price, it's a decent mascara, allows me to have a more natural lash...

Mascara is such a personal thing. I am shocked to see the lower rating on this as it is my personal HG. I love it bc it doesn’t flake or smudge which is a deal breaker for me with mascara. Also it...

I like the volume that gives me. It doesn't make the lashes longer but gives volume at the base of the eyelashes and they look pretty good. The only thing that I don't like about the mascara is...

This is the last Essence mascara I will buy, all mascaras from Essence I have tried in past, including this one, smudge on me. It does not do anything special for my eyelashes, it looks really...

This mascara isn't the worst I've tried, but it's not the best. Pros: Builds decent volume and length. Brush separates lashes well. Not a super wet formula, and dries quickly. VERY...

Saw raves about this mascara on YouTube and decided to give it a try. Ulta always has BOGO 50% on Essence, so why not. This retails for $5 USD. My needs for a mascara is that it holds a curl, and...

Just tried the mascara, luckily it was <AUD$5 because this is probably the worst $5 spent. I had fairly high hopes for it, especially in terms of length, since this is a "lash extension" mascara...

I bought this when the mascara I wanted to try from essence was sold out. It's amazing. I get volume and length and that's pretty much all I need in a mascara. It lasts all day with no flaking or...
