Tried it several times and it just doesn’t work for me. I have read so many recommendations on vogue etc. but at this point I do believe that they paid them out. In no way does this mascara holds it promise. The application and brush is ok, but it clumps and crumbs. And once you think you finally managed to apply it properly because you put on one layer… it starts to smudge right under your eye Show more
horrible for me, but good for others
my low rating only reflects how horrible this product was for me, because this mascara works amazing on some people. for me, this mascara unfortunately flaked and smudged right after i put it on. however, on others, it works amazingly well. since this product is so cheap, i recommend buying it and seeing if it works for you. if it doesn’t work out, you won’t Show more
