It's OK. Doesn't thicken or lengthen my super skimpy stick straight lashes. But it darkens nicely, holds the curl, doesn't smudge too much and is fairly easy to take off at the end of the day....

Max Factor Volume Couture (Waterproof) has become my HG mascara. I had a love affair with the non-waterproof version, but the waterproof version has since captured my heart! (And HG status,...

This is a very good department store mascara. It does not smudge nor flake. I only gave it 4 lippies because it doesn't not fill out my sparse lashes as much as I would like it too.

This is, so far, really one of the only mascaras that have managed to hold my curl! The name is rather misleading though - it lengthens my lashes very well but don't work so much on volume. Doesn't...

I am so into branded makeup these days, that I rarely venture into the drugstore to pickup makeup, but after the positive reviews here at Makeupalley, decided to give this a try. Plus, Gisele's...

The name is really misleading. On my lashes (medium length, sparsely grouped, yet individually thick that point down) this performs as a lengthening mascara with very little volume. The "rich...

Oh my goooooooodness. This is probably my HG mascara! At first, all it did was lengthen my lashes and did nothing for volume. However, after using it a couple of times it works great! It gives...

Love this product. I only use waterproof mascara because that's the only thing that will hold a curl in my straight, short lashes. This stuff is wonderful - makes my sad little lashes look as long...

This mascara gives my lashes length, but very little volume. I shall not repurchase this because it smudges very very badly on me, even though it's supposed to be waterproof.

This mascara is okay. It's the first drugstore brand mascara I've tried in a long time. I don't LOVE it but i definitely don't dislike it. Here are my pros&cons on this mascara: PROS: It holds a...

You don't know what you have until it's gone. I've been using this for years and I had no idea how hard a good waterproof mascara was to find until I couldn't find this one. But I've gotten it...

ADORE this mascara. It pumps up my lashes and hardly ever clumps-- rendering my Sonia Kashuk metal eyelash comb pretty much uncessessary. Stays on forever, is really cheap, and holds a curl for...

Asian with stubborn, short, stick straight lashes. Now I've managed to find a curler that I love, so that's not a problem. The problem is always with keeping the curl. All I really ask for in a...

My current favorite! I find other volume enhancing mascaras to be clumpy but the Volume Couture plastic bristles does a nice job of "oomphing" my straight, sparse lashes without the clumps. It's...

I love this. I purchased MFVC in Brown/Black, which looks more natural on my NC-20 LLL skin than Black does. This lasts all day without smudging or flaking. A bargain for under $10.
