Quick Take: volumizing, defining, lengthening
Pretty much THE best mascara I've used. I'm not a fan of having super thick lashes that are in-your-face and look like falsies, so I'm always wary of how much to apply and how big the brush is. This one surpassed all my expectations. It lengthens and volumizes without ever clumping or flaking, and it goes on smoothly. The brush is a good size; not too big or too small, and the tube I have has lasted me a while. A fantastic find in my opinion.

Terrible!
-06.12.13
Quick Take: smudges, flakes off, boring impact
This mascara is probably the worst I have ever tried! It flakes off throughout the day and smudges. My lashes also barely looked like I had anything on them!

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening
I've bought this mascara for years, and it works well and doesn't clump. My only issue is that I feel like sometimes it gets this weird smell if I don't use it often enough.

My "must have" on a desert island
-06.07.13
I never go without mascara, never! I have very light eyelashes and I may have a phobia about them but this mascara is my favorite.
It comes off with soap, water and gently cleansing.
It's black.
It's smooth and not clumpy so no spider legs.
Long lastly.
And I LOVE the brush!
It's a must have for me.

Quick Take: lengthening
I will never buy anything other than Clinique mascara again. Received this as a sample. It's fantastic. Doesn't clump, only need one swipe. It's fantastic.

So, so
-06.03.13
I like to try all new mascaras with credibility. This one had great pigment, but, the brush is almost too soft to let the mascara work well. It needs more umph...not my favorite.

The only mascara that I will use
-06.03.13
Quick Take: lengthening, defining
I have tried countless mascaras (drugstore and high-end). I have never found another mascara that matches the quality of this one. It never clumps; only lifts and separates. It's not very volumizing, but it definitely works well as a day-to-day mascara.

I think the quality of this mascara is on par with the much more expensive ones that I have been using in the past.

surprisingly great!
-05.30.13
Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining
I received a sample of this when i returned my old lancome mascara at a local sephora store. It's actually really great! I've never tried Clinique for mascaras before because they're more known for their skin products than mascaras, but i found it to work very well! It doesn't clump, goes up really easily and i can apply it twice without my lashes looking clumpy. It also gives my lashes a really nice lift. Most importantly, the lift STAYS! I'll be retiring my lancome mascaras for this one!

Can't decide..
-05.30.13
It's a really good mascara. It doesn't irritate my eyes so far, the wand separates my lashes nicely, and it doesn't clump. The only issue I have with this is I prefer more dramatic eyelashes, this one didn't do it for me. It's build-able, and will get quiet long, but not dramatic enough. This is good if you want more of an every day natural look with a small hint if drama.

Makes lashes bold and beautiful! Goes on very easy, and does not clump. Comes off very easy with eye make-up remover.

Great everday mascara
-05.24.13
Quick Take: defining
I'm really pleased with this mascara. I switched to it from Diorshow Blackout because I was tired of having slightly itchy eyes and difficult removal everyday. It's less striking than the Blackout (not surprisingly), but it has a cleaner look/feel, my eyes aren't itchy, and removal is much easier at night. I still keep the Blackout around for special occasions, but it's nice to have something a bit less intense as my everyday mascara.

Unreal LASHES!
-05.22.13
Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining
Got this as a VIB sample. I can't believe how great this product is. The brush is perfect; it defines each lash without clumping. Allow the first coat to dry ( very quick dry), and apply the second, and watch out for LUSH LASH! Since using High Impact, I've been asked by more than one person if I was wearing lash extensions...it's THAT good.
xoxo
It's just spectacular.

Easy application for a nice clean look (I use just one coat in the morning for work, add a second for heading out). Washes off easily without a lot of tugging. Definitely my reliable mainstay!

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining
LOVE LOVE LOVE this mascara! I have tried everything and am usually a Dior user. I tried this one on a whim once and will never use anything else. It covers beautifully, hardly clumps, gives nice full gorgeous lashes. It definitely gives a nice lush, plumped look without looking "done up".

MY FAVORITE
-05.13.13
Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining
Received as a bonus in the trail size and feel in love with it.
Went to purchase and didn't because of the price. Tried other corner store mascaras and want disapointed. In the end I spent more on poor product than if I would have just bought this mascara. Doesn't flake off. Adds depth and holds the curl. I love this stuff.

I really like the volume this gives me but it takes about 10 swipes to work on me. Good, but could be better.

I got this mascara as a sample from another store. I was really happy with the results and glad I was able to find it at Sephora. It is definitely one of my 2 favorite mascaras!
