Difficult to remove, flakes all over your face, and the applicator is the smallest! The opening doesn't try to remove any excess mascara. I bought two of these items and am going to throw on in the trash. Not even worth the time and energy to take back!!!

It basically like putting water on your eyelashes. It pretty much vanishes in the time range of an hour, not to mention how many times you may have to reapply may lead to eye infections if you don't wash all of it off properly.

That’s it didn’t have a good lift, girls if you can’t wear actual mascara then this is pretty good and will do the job my parents won’t let me wear make up until I’m like 16 but I’ve been using this it’s light and kinda hold up ur lashes but then it goes away I would recommend a curler for ur eyelashes so it would have a great effect but other then that is at its very good for like 12-14+ 👍😁

I have been using Great Last since I started wearing mascara a long long time ago. I am blonde, so I do not want any black in my mascara. I am having trouble finding Brown in stores in the last few months. I now see Blackish brown. Are you doing away with the brown? I hope not!! Also, this mascara comes right off with Dove unscented bar soap. It does not come off in the rain or in a swimming pool! I LOVE Great Lash Brown!!

Do not get it - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
I mean it’s all right but my friend said it lasted her a year and that it’s really good so I got it… but when I used it, it had to much gel so I would have to wait till it’s dry and then use it, but either WAYYY there was a white cast like white stuff and I have black eyebrows sooo I wouldn’t recommend getting one.

Added maybe a tiny bit of length but that’s about it. Didn’t hold the curl, ZERO volume and kinda made me lashes stick together. It was super cheap so I’ll probably just use it on my bottom lashes or on days that I wear lashes.

I went to go buy the Physicians Formula mineral wear clear mascara but there was no more left so I purchased the Maybelline one. When i tried it on it was awful. The formula is super watery. Even if you dont touch it and let it dry out, it does not hold your lashes and if anything uncurled my precurled lashes. The brush is also a very awkward shape that does not allow for much product to be applied to the lashes. I usually also use my clear mascara for my lashes, and this mascara was only watery and wiuld not hold them up. I would never every recomend this product to a friend. I asked my friend ti try it on to see what she said and the first thing she asked was about how watery the formula was. If you are looking for a clear mascara, I would recomend the Physicians Formula Clear Mineral Wear Mascara. That one is a thousand times better, i'm never purchasing it again that's why my bottle is still full.
