I loved it the first time I bought it. Ran out purchased a second tube and it’s super thick you can’t even see the bristles on the brush. I have to waste most of it by scraping it off. Finally gave up on that tube and bought a 3rd months later thinking I just got a bad one. Nope this one is just as bad. Don’t waste your money.

still prefer regular colossal
I bought this when the regular colossal, my fav, was out of stock. the formula seems exactly the same but the brush is spirally and doesn't work as well as the regular colossal brush. lashes look longer and more spindly versus the thickening effect of regular colossal. a decent substitute. I like that it comes in brownish back

So dissapointed :(
Was so excited to finally try this out, as I usually love all maybelliene products. I was expecting so much more from this. It’s not buildable its formula is entirely too wet and comes out in huge clumps. Makes my lashes look like short, stubby spider lashes. And I have naturally long lashes , very disappointed and dissatisfied with this mascara:(

Hi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Colossal Bubble Waterproof Mascara. We are truly sorry to hear that the Colossal Bubble Waterproof Mascara did not provide the bold, defined look you've come to expect from our products. We understand how frustrating it is when a formula feels too wet or results in clumping, especially when you have naturally long lashes to showcase. Your feedback regarding the application and "stubby" effect is incredibly valuable to our development team.

Not a fan. Hard to remove from your eyes and gets clumpy.

Hello Optometry! We are sorry to hear that our Colossal Mascara did not provide the high-volume and effortless application you were looking for and that the formula appeared to be clumpy and difficult to remove. This high-performance mascara is specifically engineered with a unique Mega Brush and a collagen-infused formula designed to provide 9x the volume in just one coat for an impactful and dramatic lash look. To help prevent clumping and ensure the best results, we suggest wiping any excess product from the wand before application and using a light, sweeping motion to help the formula coat and lift your lashes from root to tip. Because our Colossal Mascara is a long-wear formula, we recommend using a dual-phase or oil-based eye makeup remover to gently dissolve the pigments without any tugging on the delicate eye area. We value your feedback as we strive to provide the high-performance results our mascaras are known for.

Meh
On the market for a new drugstore mascara. After hearing so many good reviews about this online I purchased it. I have medium length lashes and honestly I hated this. It did absolutely nothing and is one of the worst mascaras I’ve tried so far.

Nope to clumpy
Extremely chunky and to much on the wand makes your eye lash chunky clumpy. I would not recommend

I just bought this product and it is clumpy doesn’t spread evenly. Doesn’t give the results that is claimed a waste of money.

Terrible
In all fairness in the last few years I've noticed an extreme decline in the effectiveness of mascara in general. Not sure what happened to y'all's formula but this just isn't it. It leaves lashes clumped up like the mascara is 5 years old or something. It should have a consistency that allows you to apply it evenly and smoothly.

Nothing and I mean nothing gets this mascara off. I tried everything. Even the garnier waterproof makeup remover barely touches it and you have to keep rubbing for ages. I don’t even think gasoline would take this mascara off. I lose lashes everytime and my eyes end up burning from having to rub so much to get it off.

Hi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Maybelline Colossal Bubble Mascara. We are so sorry to hear about the frustration and discomfort you've experienced. We never want a product to cause irritation or the loss of lashes, and we truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Our waterproof formulas are designed for extreme hold, but they should never be a struggle to remove. For our most "stubborn" mascaras, we generally recommend using an oil-based remover or a dedicated waterproof makeup cleansing balm. To protect your lashes and eyes, we recommend this "no-rub" technique: Saturate a cotton pad with an oil-based remover. Press the pad against your closed eye and hold it there for 30–60 seconds without rubbing. This allows the oil to break down the waterproof polymers. Gently wipe downward in one motion. If your eyes are currently feeling burnt or irritated, we suggest taking a break from mascara for a few days to let the delicate eye area recover. Your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities, and we will be sharing your feedback with our quality and development teams immediately.
