    One of my things I cannot live without! It helps *most* terrible mascaras ('cuz hey, there are some BAD ones out there!) become something more acceptable for going out. I notice a difference in...

    I have rarely found the ratings wrong on MUA and this mascara base is no exception. Shiseido is hands down the best. For sky high upper lashes, throw away the false lashes and use the Shiseido...

    I bought this after trying Revlon Lash Fantasy (dual primer/mascara) and Smashbox primer. I like this primer a lot. The brush allows it to go on smoothly (no clump) and it does put a little curl...

    I bought this product based off the reviews of MUA. I love long lashes and can't get enough drama. I curl my lashes with the Shu curler, apply this mascara base and top with ysl faux cils. Best...

    What does Shiseido put in this!? Its like magic! As far as length and fullness go, i'd give it a 4 out of 5. It's good, but not out-of-this world. For holding a curl, nothing even comes close!....

    It's ok.... It really makes my lashes longer and fuller, but it's really hard to remove! Even with waterproof make-up remover it's still a pain in the arse. And I don't like the price either........

    Fabulous! For all you gals who have to tug evernight to remove this stuff, try Clinique's "take the day off" makeup remover. It works like a charm. It's a bit greasy but I would take a little bit...

    Mascaras normally wouldn't hold my curls unless they were waterproof. But with this! Oh my! My curls stay on ALL day. Think of this product as a primer for your eyelashes. Like other reviewers have...
