OK so the mascara making people must be bored, a shaking mascara, one with a little ball? Ok so here we go. It sucks, i thought lancome oscillation was stupid, this one is really stupid. It...

I was amazed today. Last night I was watching TV while going to sleep, I saw this product commercial. Curious, I wanted the Givenchy Phenomen but I was skeptical and dont wanna take a risk for...

I have to say, this mascara takes alot of work! BUT, when I'm done I have amazing lashes. I work one eye at a time. I curl my lashes, then do one coat of the Telescopic Explosion Mascara. Then...

I have to agree with most people, this can be a little clumpy. Not to mention, it takes forever to apply to bare lashes to get both eyes done. It didn't lengthen like crazy and the volume was...

I really like this, the brush gives me no issues-I'm right handed but apply my mascara on the left side with my left hand, so I get no clumpiness. It's quite black, dries pretty fast, doesn't flake...

You would think there would be patent pending on the design so other companies would not copy the original ball wand. The flaw on the L'oreal one is that the bristles are not dense enough as I...

I have tried many mascaras & I was hoping this would be a good buy. Big disapointment. I guess I will have to stick with my department store brand mascaras. Nothing else comes close to leaving my...

Compulsive mascara shopper/user here and disregarding the low evaluation and bad reviews for this I had to try it to achieve that "fanned out" reach 100% of lashes look ...and to no avail. This...

If you're not in a rush to do your makeup this mascara is pretty good. It gets every little lash and doesn't get the skin above or below your eyelashes. HOWEVER.. you need to clean the wand right...

I bought this, as curious as everyone about the brush. It would be good but... just below the ball brush ALOT of excess product builds up. If you dont wipe this off, you will get 3 large clumpy...

I just purchased this new mascara, I was a little skeptical because it looks pretty funny..... it has a ball at the end with spikes sticking out in all direction. At first it was a little odd to...

I wanted to love this, but that ain't happening. I like the control the brush gives me because I apply the mascara exactly where I want it, and it reaches the tiny lashes at the inner and outer...

Despite all the negative reviews, this mascara actually worked really well for me. I agree with the poster below, the clumping is due to the mascara on the wand, and not on the spikey ball. Once I...

The formula is pretty good. It gave me fullness and length. The brush did a pretty good job minus all the clumping. I did see how the brush was able to coat each lash without a hassle. You can use...

A labor intensive but satisfying mascara. This isn't the best "throw it on and go" product, but is a neat one to try when you have time. Some things that worked for me are: inspect the ball and...

The length I got from this product was amazing. Unfortunately, that was the only this I liked about it. For a product designed to fan out and separate the lashes, it clumps an awful lot. I had...

There's nothing remotely "explosive" about this mascara...I'm still not sure what the point is of the "innovative" brush is. I gather it's supposed to be more agile, making it easier to find and...

There is a learning curve with application. I did find that the clumping was bad at first, but this was because I was accidentally touching my lashes with the stem and not the brush--it takes some...
