    Well I was attracted to the carbon black color. I want a blacker than black look to my lashes. I was very disappointed in how goopy it was. Smudged like crazy. So I went back and got the one that...

    If you're an original voluminous fan and want to try this one thinking it will be better - save yourself some money and don't do it!! I am a huge fan of the original version; I have no issues with...

    I have mixed feelings regarding this product. I love how dark, and pigmented the colour is, but i hate how thick and sticky it is. It made my lashes very clumpy, and sticky. I do not recommend...

    My favorite mascara, quite possibly ever. Maybe that means I'm easy to please? Who knows. I adore the concentration of the color and the fact that the formula is easy to build. I don't find that it...

    This mascara was pretty good. It gave me nice looking lashes, good volume and length. I got the waterproof version and it really is waterproof. I've gone swimming with this mascara and had no...

    I didn't realize that carbon black is different from regular l'oreal voluminous. I wondered why this one clumps so easily and does not lengthen my lashes. I guess this is a different formulation...

    If you have lashes that are already fairly long then this will definitely make them super thick and rather doll-like. If you have medium length lashes like mine you'll get thickness but it will...

    This is my favourite mascara at the drugstore level. I'm not giving it a 5 because it can still be improved. Overall, it is the best choice for me when I don't want to spend too much money on a...

    It was really bad for me. The mascara was clumpy and dried out - which can be excused by its age - , but it smudges horribly on my eyelids too (I have long lashes). Ironically, despite the smudging...

    So, I believe this will be my holy grail mascara. It is just as dark as Dior Blackout (actually maybe even darker). It does not clump at all. It adds beautiful volume and length. I actually...
