    I haven't worn mascara since high school (5 yrs ago) because every mascara I tried smudged on me within a few hrs. After much research on the PERFECT mascara on MUA so I don't have to throw out...

    Without question, the best mascara base/primer on the market. Will not weigh down your lashes and pull the curl out. I've tried several different ones but this is a keeper.

    Ok, so I caved in and purchased this after reading the awesome reviews! I am not a big fan of mascara bases, and after trying UD's Lingerie & Galoshes I told myself I would never try another one....

    This stuff is amazing! I finally don't have to worry about finding a mascara that lengthens and keeps a curl cause this does it all! I curl my lashes, swipe a light coat on my upper lashes and...

    This is a very nice primer. I could never really tell what it was doing to my eyelashes until one day i was in a rush and decided to skip that stage and just apply a quick coat of my mascara. WOW!...

    After reading the reviews, I decided to bite the bullet. After all, 20 bucks is not cheap. I used this with Dior Show. My lashes look lush, full and soft. It lengthens them as well. I'm sure it...

    Thank you, MUAers, for turning me on to this must-have! I agree with all the raves, and I'll add this - it also keeps my mascara from giving me racoon eyes - a fabulous product.

    This works beautifully. It has a very thick teddy bear brush and is a light product but thick enough that it doesn't get into eyes. It does sort of dry on lashes after applying and I find that it...
