    There is a HUGE difference in my lashes whether or not I wear this under mascara. This is godsend for people like me with straight, wispy Asian lashes. I used to use this with Anna Sui DX Super...

    This is a HG primer for my wimpy asian lashes =) Previously I was using MAC's prep and prime, but it didn't do much in holding a curl probably cause the formula felt quite thick and heavy. But the...

    It pains me to write this review but I am so disgruntled & disappointed about it. I used 2 tubes in 8 months so time to review. It really delivers in lengthening, volumising & keeping that curl....

    This made my lashes stick together. It looked tacky and spider legdy and thus making me look BAD. For a product soo expensive, how did it make my lashes look sooo "cheap"? Will me sending it back =(.

    Update: I spoke to the lady at the Shiseido counter, and I was telling her how I apply the base. She said that I was doing it wrong. You only need to apply a thin coat. So two layers (remember...

    Why did I ever live without this before? I will never live without it again. It is a miracle product. You can see how it prepares your lashes - seperates them perfectly and plumps them up. Then all...

    This will give you the biggest lashes ever. No matter how scant the mascara, this stuff leaves a residue that builds layer on top of layer. The only two problems. You can't seem to separate...

    I was really dissapointed by this product, because it got such good reviews, but it did nothing for my eyelashes. All it did was make them stiff without adding any length. What a dissapointment!
