Illamasqua Masquara

What it is: A smudge-proof mascara that lengthens, shapes, and defines lashes. What it does: With one generous coat of this do-it-all mascara, your lashes will look longer, thicker, and expertly defined. The color is full and deep and helps produce a rich, intense finish. What else you need to know: Film-forming agents give the film its persistent, long-wearing quality, assuring excellent staying power. Vitamins E and A complete the formulation with their antioxidant and restructuring properties.

So Good!!!
-02.21.13
Absolutely the best mascara. Ever. It gives me exactly what I want: Dark lashes that are each perfectly individually coated and separated. No clumping. No flaking. Despite giving great volume, color and definition they still manage to somehow look natural. I make sure the brush has as little product as possible, taking off as much as I can onto the rim of the tube and then do a swipe or two against the edge of a sheet of paper before I put it on. It makes sure that I have an elegant and clean application. Try it!!

I didn't like this mascara at first. Once I got used to the brush, I loved it! It coats well, doesn't flake or smudge, and everyone keeps asking me if they're my real lashes. Didn't give 5 stars because I feel like my lashes could feel a little softer.

Thick lashes

Quick Take: volumizing
Overall this mascara plumps and thickens your lashes without the formula being too dry or uneven. However, applying takes a little getting used to- more than two coats and I looked like I belonged at the end of Wayland Flowers' arm, so be warned...two coats only!

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining, easy to apply, easy to remove, stays put all night n day
I was worried cause I had never used this brand but Im so glad I tried! This is now my favorite item.Its my baby. I luv long,lush, THICK lashes and always had problems finding a GOOD mascara.Most I tried would make my lashes look to thin or clumpy and sticky. Not Masquara is fabulous! I highly recommend.

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining
Bought this mascara and didn't really know what to expect. I have been using Dior Show Black out Mascara tat did fantastic job but I always had black under my eyes. I tried this mascara and absolutely love it! It Builds Volume! It Lengthens ! You are in control how you want your eye lashes look ! I love it ! And the best part is it doesn't smudge , so no more black under my eyes ! LOVE IT !

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, thick
I am huge fan of Illamasqua products. I wanted to love this mascara, but it was only okay. The formulation is good. It adds volume and length, but the brush is awful. I was scraping excess mascara off of the wand to avoid clumps.

Quick Take: lengthening, volumizing
In the search for the perfect mascara I think I have tried every brand there is. For me, this is the perfect one I will reuse forever.
I have quite fine but long eyelashes and with a lot of other mascaras find I have to put layer upon layer just to look as though I have eyelashes. The Illamasqua one is nice and thick and applies smooth and perfect without too much reapplying. It doesn't rub off on my eyelids either and has great staying power for a non waterproof.
It also doesn't dry out prematurely like others I've had and is easy to apply until it's time to throw it out.

Quick Take: lengthening, defining, volumizing
I have thin sparse lashes that grow straight down and resist holding a curl. Therefore, I am constantly trying new mascaras. This one is a winner! It applies smoothly with minimal clumping, doesn't smear during the day, and gave me defined lush lashes. I love it!

Quick Take: lengthening, defining, volumizing
I just purchased this mascara. I was hesitating,because I really love Chanel mascara and I couldn't imagine this one being better,but it is really good. I have sparse, fine, light colored lashes that need all the help they can get and I was very pleased with this one.

Quick Take: defining, volumizing, good formula
I really love this mascara, it doesn't flake at all, it doesn't irritate my eyes, and it looks really nice all day. It defines the lashes really nicely as well. The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because it doesn't lengthen as much as I think it should but other than that it's the perfect mascara. I use it with another lengthening mascara for a good match :)

-10.23.11
Quick Take: lengthening, defining, volumizing, curling, long-wearing
I really love this mascara. It gives my lashes definition, length, curl, and just enough volume. I don't like a lot of volume, so it's perfect for me. It's also easy to apply - you don't have to work it too much. And it wears all through the day without any flaking, smudging, fading, or otherwise bad behavior. It wears perfectly on the lower lashes, too, which is super important for me. Over all, I'm very impressed and pleased! Love it!!

Nothing Special
-10.16.11
This is a pretty basic mascara. It doesn't volumize, and only subtly lengthens lashes. I wasn't impressed by this mascara at all.
