Colossally Clumpy
This mascara was clumpy and did not go on smoothly.
1 reply from Maybelline Consumer Care team - 1 month ago
Hello caro! Thank you so much for sharing your feedback about the Colossal Bubble Mascara with us. This long-wear formula is developed with fiber-filled technology to create a dramatic, voluminous look that resists water and smudging throughout the day. Because the formula is highly pigmented and can sometimes be a bit thick, the clumps can be a sign that too much product was applied at once. A helpful tip for achieve the best results with this mascara is to apply it in thin, buildable layers onto your lashes, moving the wand in a zig-zag motion to separate the fibers. This ensures that the pigments are more evenly distributed for a more visible impact without any clumping or smearing. We appreciate your patience as you discover the value of this lengthening and volumizing mascara as part of your makeup routine.

Wand sucks
I used the regular bubble mascara and decided to try the waterproof. It’s absolute trash compared the first one. And did yall change the wand?? It makes my eyelashes so chunky and makes them look stubby when they are a pretty decent length.

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.
