    I love this mascara! I have sparse long lashes and this product really gives a lot volume to my lashes!! But I think this product could a bit better if it could hold the lashes... So I am...

    Worst mascara I ever used. It's clumps, and has a cheap brush. The formula is thick and doesn't add volume nor length.

    I've been a fan of the original Voluminous formula for over 20 years now. This incarnation is a real disappointment in comparison. Last time I needed mascara, Walgreens was out of my beloved...

    This is a really lovely product and my new favourite mascara. I was suprised at the price of this mascara, as I expected it to be over £10 and it was only £7. Also I got the choice of any free...

    I am a huge fan of the original Voluminous and have been wearing it for years. I'm fickle though, and am never immune to the appeal of upper-end chic. Over the years I have tried every mascara...

    Meh... I recently found this mascara on sale for under $5 so I decided to give it a try. The word 'Voluminous' is a misnomer. My lashes remained 'skimpy' and sparse looking even after a few coats....

    I really like this mascara. No problems with smudging or flaking, very smooth, no clumping if you take your time. Removal is harder - this is a very black formula and it's just a mess when you...

    APPLICATION: It is very smooth. I liked it. It's almost like Clinique's High Impact in my opinion, except not as creamy/silky feeling. However, it is a bit heavy so.. CURL: Did not hold...

    Okay before you buy this product, make sure you are great at applying mascara, and have the time to do it. It takes some skill not to get it on your lower eye, and your lid, as the mascara is very...

    I am a longtime user of L'Oreal's original Voluminous Mascara, and absolutely love it, so I "assumed" I would also love their Carbon Black Mascara. I assumed wrong. The very first time I wore it,...

    This is my second time trying this out. It wasn't great the first time around. I just assumed it was reformulated. It's clumpy, flakes, and worst of all, it makes my lashes break or fall off,...

    This mascara lengthens and darkens my lashes, but it does not hold a curl very well. The volumnizing is okay. It creates natural-looking lashes. It was pretty good and didn't clump at first, but...

    I think it's amazing how diverse these reviews are. I guess you either love it or hate it. I personally love it. It is so black, even darker than my black eyelashes. I have been wearing this for a...

    Just a boring, average mascara...nothing to rave about. I gave it a 2 for the dark color. Save your money.
