I love the concept of this mascara b/c the brush is a knockoff of Guerlain's Phenomen'Eyes, but I like things to be easy & convenient, and this mascara takes forever to apply. So I hate it. The...

I find that this mascara does not hold my curl unless I use a primer. It clumps if you apply too much so I don't use it for my upper lashes. I find that this is great for the lower lashes! It's...

Why didn't I check out the reviews before I bought this? I know better but I let impulse take over and bought this without reading the reviews and, of course, I regret it. Somehow this mascara...

Oh gosh..where do i begin??? Let's keep it short and simple: clumps, flakes, and takes waay too long to apply. True, it does get to every lash and if applied right it lengthens, but it clumps way...

I just tried this out and I really loved it! I was unsure, but I am glad I got it - I love how you can right into the inner and outer corners, which can be difficult with conventional wands. I...

I really wanted to like this mascara, but I HATE it! It is terrible, it gets clumpy and the formula is super super runny. If your eyelashes are even a little bit long then it will end up all over...

This mascara really does give me a false lash effect.. it thickens/elongates without cluping. i actually like the way how it diposits the black ink(?) as you apply it because it adds more...

So far, I like this. I will update my review if my feelings change. The brush wasn't that hard to use, but I have many years of practice (applying mascara daily) so I'm pretty good at it. ...

Love the formula, hate the brush. I tried for two weeks to get used to the round brush, but perhaps I'm just not coordinated enough in my old age :)- I was so afraid I'd hit myself in the eye that...

I really love this mascara! I can't say anything negative about it. I love the way it doesn't clump and it goes on very nice. It really does what the name says, it makes your lashes very long!...

NOTE: IF YOU GET CLUMPS FROM USING THIS PRODUCT, YOU'RE USING IT INCORRECTLY! I'd just like to say that you must have a VERY LIGHT HAND when using this mascara. Barely sweep the wand over your...

I fell in love with this mascara! It's such a bold black. The applicator really is great for getting all the tiny lashes my lash blast luxe misses due to it's huge wand. I'd repurchase this because...

Like everyone else here, I bought this mascara to satisfy my Givenchy Phenomen'Eyes lemming. And, well, it has been satisfied. The wand is a little tricky to use. I spent the first four days...

Not really loving this mascara. I was intrigued by the brush, but realized I like old fashioned mascaras best. This mascara was very very clumpy and thick. Usually I can apply mascara in 30 seconds...
