    I bought this mascara after reading some pretty good reviews about it. I usually don't fare well with L'Oreal and Lancome mascaras... but this one is different. This one gives my lashes a rich...

    This stuff is awful. I bought it because my drugstore recently stopped carrying my usual mascara (Max Factor). So, I thought I would give another brand a try. I remembered that my friend used to...

    I normally don't wear mascaras that aren't waterproof (I tear easily), but I went on a trip and forgot to take mine with me. Ended up with this because it was on sale and I thought I should try a...

    I have fairly long, thick lashes already but I wanted a super blackity black black mascara for a look I was going to create for my 21st birthday dinner (retro glam). This one beat the hell outta...

    The Pros: The intense black color; the wonderfully thick, dense brush; its ability to both lengthen and thicken my average length/average thickness lashes. The Con[s]: I applied it at 7:30 a.m....

    The formula is way too wet and it removes all the curl from my lash curler. The color is alot blacker than any other mascara I've used though. I'm impressed with the pigmentation. The formula...

    I have probably the shortest, stubby, thin eyelashes in the entire world. Finding the HG mascara is always on my list! This comes close. Powder gently under and over the eyes first - apply...

    This is okay, but not great. I like the intense black color, but it ran under my eyes after just a few hours. It did give great volume and length, but there are other products that do that and...

    This mascara isn't bad but it's not great either. Voluminous is clumpy upon application where it feels like the mascara is already starting to dry out. The color is an intense black so it does make...

    Horrible mascara! Too wet and really did nothing to enhance my lashes! It left residue everywhere including the corners of my eyes... and that I can't stand! If this is the voluminous that...

    I'm a habitual cheater. Everytime a new mascara comes out, I cheat on my Voluminous. I'm like an alley cat that way. But I always come back to it because it really is my HG mascara. I like thick,...

    Very thick, clumpy and gloppy. I should have wiped some off on a tissue before applying. I did have to use an eyelash comb right away or I would have looked like I only had six black eyelashes. It...

    Oh, how I love you Voluminous Carbon Black. You are so perfect in your gold and black tube. You made me realize you are better than any high end mascara. You are also very cheap and last forever. I...

    Way too clumpy. It is nice and black, which I appreciate, but after using it a couple of times, the brush is full of clumps when I pull it out of the tube! I guess I could just wipe it off, but I...

    At first I thought I didn't really like this mascara. It was very black which I loved, but seemed kina clumpy and goopy. I tried it again after wiping off the brush, and what a difference! The only...

    I am a huge fan of Voluminous in the normal Very Black shade, so, enticed by the advertising and novelty of an even blacker shade, I thought this would be great. But the formula is different. Not...
