The worst I’ve ever used in 50 years

I’ve been wearing mascara for over 50 years! This is so bad I had to write a review. Clumpy and gives me short stumpy flaky eyelashes.

Flaky Mess

I bought this about a month ago from the drug store thinking it would be an easier alternative on my eyelashes than regular mascara. Not only is the formula very thick and barely transfers onto lashes, but it flakes BAD, literally as soon as you put it on so multiple layers is a no go. Don't see how its okay for sensitive eyes with particles getting flicked into the eye after one swipe.

Disappointing waste of money

As others have already mentioned, the product goes on clumpy and unevenly, and something about the formula makes it prone to flaking. Even though I've had it for just a couple months, it's become so dry and clumpy whenever I apply it to my lashes, you'd think I'd had it in my makeup bag for a year or more. I was optimistic about the fullness of the mascara's brush and thought it would really work to volumize my lashes, but this was not the case. It isn't cool to spend a little more for a slightly higher-end drugstore brand and have to throw it out so soon. Honestly, I'll stick to Great Lash because it's cheaper and has none of these issues.

Been using over a year and lashes are fuller, longer, and healthier! This mascara has actually thickened my natural lashes to where I can just use lash curler on days I don't want to wear mascara. Product doesn't irritate my eyes or contacts. This mascara has not flaked on me - normally change out every 1- 2 months. And price keeps it economical to do so.

Clumpy and messy

I bought this mascara hoping to find one that would go on smoothly. It was the exact opposite. It would “splatter “ and leave specks of black all over my face when applying. It would also go on my eyelashes clumpy and unevenly. After wearing a few hours, I noticed it had smeared under both eyes. Worst mascara EVER. DO. NOT. BUY

  • Eye color: Green

  • Skin tone: Light
Goes on easily, not a lot of volume or length added. Unfortunately this mascara flakes off very easily throughout the day leaving little flecks of mascara under my eyes & on my cheeks. Wouldn’t purchase this again.

Wand too LONG! Clumps, chunks and flakes.

I have been using the thickening mascara in the black/brown color for years. This "conditioning" one chunks and clumps and flings bits of mascara all over my face. The wand is long and straight so it's hard to comb out the clumps without several jabs to the eye. I don't like the black color of the thickening/purple tube but that seems to be all that is left in the stores. My advice, avoid the volume and conditioning one!

Bought this since I have sensitive eyes and was looking for a mascara that didn’t flake. The PCR container with plant-based bristles is a nice plus. Unfortunately, like other reviewers mentioned, this formula flakes onto your bottom eyelashes which will irritate your eyes. One other issue is removal. Even with the non waterproof formula, it is extremely difficult to remove, often taking a few cleansers before it is fully gone from your eyelids. Would not purchase again.

From the very first application of this mascara and all subsequent ones there was clumping. I had to use extra effort to try to get a smooth application. I am sorry I didn't read the revfiews before the purchase..

Extreme Flaking

This mascara is thick and clumpy upon application. It is difficult to separate lashes, even with a spoolie. It flakes immediately and continues to do so throughout the day. I found it in the bargain bin at a local store and decided to give it a try. I will never purchase another Almay mascara again.

I have purchased many other brands of mascara and never have I had one perform so poorly right out of the tube. The other reviews are correct: this mascara is cakey, lumpy, and it flakes off (sheds tiny black specks) as soon as it dries. In fact, it dries so quick, there's no manipulating the application to separate and make your lashes go where you want. I wish I could get my money back.

I had not tried tubing mascara before. I do not like it. It is very difficult to remove! Plus> I developed blocked meibomian glands-1 in each eye within 10 days after buying this mascara. I had to go to my Dr and buy special EyeLid cleanser and drops. Who thought tubing mascara was a good idea?

I bought this because I have sensitive stye prone eyes. It flakes and collects below your bottom lashes, creates little specs in your eyes.

I’ve bought just about every mascara known to man. This is one of my top 5, number 2! It doesn’t bother my lids or eyes at all. Gives my tiny short lashes a ton of volume and some lift. It goes on perfect no clumps no running no smell and lasts months. It is a softish set mascara that I prefer. I’ve found anything that is stiff breaks off and flakes all over or is itchy or uncomfortable, not this. This mascara is pure perfection and like magic to my lashes. I love it and hope they never change the formula or stop making it. Lasts all day and comes off fairly easy worth soap and water. My lashes feel better after I use it.

...it'll be a faster waste of it than trying to get the mascara into the brush and onto your lashes. Not a drop of mascara in the brush. Every trick in the book to try to load it, and all I got was a clumpy mess on the tip, and even that was so dry an gooey, I couldn't spread it over my lashes and get it into the brush. A TOTAL waste of money. If I could take it back, I would.
