Great Mascara without the Clumps!
-05.12.13
Quick Take: volumizing, defining, lengthening
Saw this mascara recommended in an online makeover video. I tried it and love it. My lashes are fairly skimpy so I like something with some volume. This give me volume, color, AND some curl. I also really like the long applicator - it fits well in your hand.

Purple Passion!

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining
This is the purple color with 3 coats and eyelashes curled. I also use lash comb after second coat. This is a great find! Try it, you will not be disappointed.

Super Duper!
-05.10.13
Quick Take: volumizing, defining, lengthening, stays put!, gorgeous
Ok, so I had resigned myself to never buy another high-end mascara (not from drugstore) when I decided I was looking for a purple mascara to enhance my green eyes I came across this one and WOW! I always sacrifice something with each one I try but this one has it all! It thickens, it lengthens, it does not leave raccoon eyes or smudge whatsoever, and it is also semi-waterproof because it holds my curl thereby holding lashes up. And lastly, it comes off with my facial cleanser In a breeze with no pulling or tugging on my eyes. Yeah! And yes, you can see the color on the lashes, it's just enough to see and I have dark eyelashes. Now I am getting the black and maybe green too! Will never change from this one it is the BEST bar none! I haven't had lashes like this since I was a teenager!

Quick Take: volumizing, defining, lengthening, dramatic
I love a dramatic eye, but I can't stand when your mascara flakes off into your contacts! This is far and away the best looking, easiest to apply, best stay-put dramatic mascara I've ever tried. I'm hooked.

Pretty Amazing
-05.09.13
Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening
I love this mascara. It extends and thickens my lashes to the point where my eyelashes look insanely dramatic. The only fall back would be it is a little difficult to get off, it can get clumpy at times, and it dries up quickly. However, the effects are so nice I would definitely repurchase.

I've gone through so many different mascaras, this one is by far my favorite! I have thin lashes, though a lot of them, and this mascara really packs on the dramatic effect, volumes and defines my lashes beautifully. My only negative remark would be that I find the tube dries out quicker than a lot of the other mascaras I've used. Despite this and the price, it hasn't stopped me from continuing to purchase it, it's that good!

Nothing special
-05.06.13
I purchased the green color but the wand is a little dry and you can't really tell that it's green once you apply it. Just so-so.

AMAZING !

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening
Prior to this I was using Benefit They're real , a great mascara so I wasn't on the market to try any other. I went to a MUFE makeover event and they gave me this mascara for free so I gave it a try and I WAS IN LOVE! For one its super black and two its powerfully voluminizing and lengthening in just one coat. Needless to say , I no longer have a use for They're Real.

Awesome
-04.25.13
Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening
I don't really wear mascara that often but I'm a dancer so makeup is definately needed. So I got this as a sample and at first I thought I would hate it because the bristles are so, kind of, long and Idk. anyway I tried it and yeah its awesome. It made my lashes (not curly at all) really noticeable. Only reason its not 5 stars is because it was a little clumpy at first. but other than that, amazing. definately a keeper! :)

What can I say- this is my HG mascara! No matter how many other brands I try, when I want a dramatic eye (or need a new tube of mascara), I always go back to Smoky Lash (and have for years). I've tried both the black and brown- and recommend them both, depending on how dramatic a look you want. No major clumping or flaking.

I have been using this mascara for years and won't stop! It gives the best length and volume without irritating my eyes. This mascara has raised my standards for make up over-all. I definitely recommend this product to anyone! No false lashes necessary!

Quick Take: lengthening
I have dark, almost black, eyelashes and purchased the blue shade. The color did not show up at all, however, it is slightly average in lengthening my lashes.

Best mascara EVER
-04.21.13
This is my favourite mascara. And I have to say, I am not that loyal to products. I usually try a new brand every time I shop. I am now hooked on this mascara. Won't use anything else.
