I actually liked the mascara… i found that it made the whole application process a lot more easier and less tedious.

LOVED IT! I just bought it today at the pharmacy and I fell in love with it from the start. My lashes are very thin and short. I with the first coat, my lashes were longer and separated. You do have to do a few coats to get the darker color but it works great. No clumps for me.

I got the same mascara, so excited to try it out.
Its alright, pretty cheap though. Just like you said its very clumpy and doesnt spred well. The brush itself isnt to good either, if you hadent noticed.

What do I think?
Your lashes look great!
(If MINE were that long
more guys’d ask me to date!)

BTW:
As far as the ‘clumps’ others mentioned, a lash comb would just add a finishing touch.

AND:
Does this run on a battery? Does the battery last as long as the mascara?

I have tried Maybelline Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara and it works great! It makes my lashes super long – you hardly notice the vibrations- but it does tend to clump. However, the clumpiness can be fixed with a lash comb!

I would think the vibrating would be very uncomfortable! I’m not sure I like this product!

Have we gotten so lazy that we can’t even wiggle a mascara wand into our eyelashes without help? Not to mention all the misleading advertising that has already been mentioned.

I have to admit that I do actually LOVE one of the Maybelline mascaras: Full & Soft Waterproof — it meets all my criteria — doesn’t irritate my contacts, is waterproof, doesn’t smudge or run for at least 9 hours, and is easy to remove. Jennifer Love Hewitt (I think?) did a print ad for them for it a while back and was interviewed and said that those were her real lashes and that the make-up artist actually separated them using a pin — one at a time. Scary.

i am also pretty fed up with ads that supposedly show us product results, but in reality it is just a mastery of photoshop. Maybelline mascara seem to be very clumpy. i had similar results with colossal. the vibrating stuff i dont buy into, whether it is for mascara or razors.

True Shannon it is all ads – I didn’t mean to pick on Maybelline alone, I was just looking at their ad when I started this research…didn’t know about the trouble in UK, interesting same not possible here I suppose. Anyway thanks to the ones who start blogs like these! You all are such a big help!

@Cblack This is true…for all cosmetic brands. Any ad that you see for mascara has been enhanced either digitally or by using fake lashes. You might remember that the ads with Penelope Cruz for Telescopic got into trouble in the UK for false advertising at one point last year. Same goes for skin care ads…images are always enhanced. But that’s why there are beauty blogs to turn to…real people telling it like it is.
