If you are looking at this review hoping to see how awesome this mascara is, then you're in the wrong place. I think it's average and I was not blown away by it at all.
I was so over the moon to be chosen to review this. It comes in black and brown. I received the black one to review (thankfully).
My first experience using this mascara was this morning. I opened it up easily enough, the instructions are pretty self-explanatory: you grip, squeeze, wiggle and pull it out. It looks quite messy when it comes out, and those looks are not deceiving. It is a bit messy.
A definitely pro about this product is you need only one sweep and it covers your entire lash at once. Sometimes you need to use the edges for the corners, but one sweep is definitely enough. The mascara goes on thick, so there is definitely notice-ability. I would not wear this every day, I will be keeping it for night time use.
The first application went on smoothly and looked pretty cool. The second eye came out a bit clumpy (I did it exactly the same way) and I actually had to use my other mascara brush to sweep out the clumps. If it wasn't for the second eye clumping, this review would have been very different.
It is a very wet mascara, but when it is dry, it's dry and doesn't budge. It's the end of the work day now and it's still in place perfectly with no smudging, so for that it gets a thumbs up.
I am definitely going to be using it for evenings out. I am still undecided about whether I would purchase this product once it runs out. I will update my review in the comments section if I change my mind on anything. But for now, it's not that much better than regular mascara. My Maybelline Volum' Express One-by-One mascara is still my favourite.

I've warmed up to this product since writing my review, but i still only use it now and then... it is fast to apply, but it does still blotch sometimes, but i just use my normal mascara brush to unclog the lashes.
