I like the larger brush. It gives good length and volume. Doesn't clump and separates the lashes nicely. Occasionally I have issues with smudging, but tried a few other mascaras and always seem...

For the price (CAD 28), I was expecting something at least half-decent but I've ended up very disappointed - I don't like it at all! The oversize brush makes the application quite tricky, I end up...

Usually when I review mascaras, I like to discuss the brush, and honestly Smashbox's Full Exposure mascara's brush is what kills it. The brush has a lot of bristles and is conical-shaped. The...

I like this mascara a lot. It's the first non-waterproof formula mascara that holds up very well against my oily lids and holds a decent curl. It's curl holding power is good even though my lashes...

This mascara is suppose to be waterproof but it's not at all. It smudges within the hour of having it on. I love the brush though & it's easy to get lots of lashes in a breeze. Also, it requires...

This was a no go for me. It did absolutely nothing and my eyelashes stuck together, one of the worst I’ve tried. I have read good reviews on the waterproof version so I might decide to see how that...

This is by far the best mascara I've used in a very long time! Love it. Yes, it has a big brush. So? It gives me long, thick, black lashes every single time. No clumps, no blops. I like that it is...

I really like this mascara! Yes the brush is huge But that's what I like about it, for me the bigger the brush the bigger the lashes! I make sure to start at the bottom from the inside of my lashes...

If you like oversized brushes, this is for you. That is not me. I prefer long but super skinny microbrushes like Innisfree. They take a minute to get used to but then reliably coat every lash with...

I would say this mascara is average. It's good for everyday use. It lengthens and doesn't clump. But I prefer a mascara with a little more oomph. My search continues......

I really like this mascara. It doesn't give you much volume but it does lengthen and separate your lashes. No smudging or flaking either.

I don't even mind the formula of this mascara. It's actually pretty decent. The problem is that the brush is so damn big that it's almost impossible to get on my lashes! Very poorly thought out. I...

Not sure what this mascara even does. I think it's one of the worst mascaras I have tried, along with Maybelline Great Lash. Doesn't really lengthen much. Definately doesn't volumize or curl. The...

The name "Full Exposure" with the big red X shape seems like it would give your lashes a lot of volume. This was rather disappointing to me. This did not look like I was really wearing mascara. It...

Got a sample of this through Ipsy. I am REALLY enjoying this mascara. I apply this one first and then a lengthening mascara 2nd and it looks great. Provides great fullness and decent length.
