I just LOVE this mascara!! It makes my lashes stand out and look longer and fuller. I have been using this brand now for the past 2 years and I don't see that changing anytime soon! Great brand!! :)

Review 2 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
Good product
-10.02.12
Quick Take: lengthening
I like this mascara and would probably buy it again. I love that it comes in a small size bc I don't usually make it through most full size mascara's before they start making my eyes itch from age. It does make lashes look long and has a good wand for targeting lashes. I have oily skin though and I find by the end of the day, the oil on my upper eyelid has mixed with the mascara and left little lash marks under my brow line, but this happens with most mascaras I've used.

Review 4 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
Allergy eyes
-09.28.12
Was not thrilled enough to buy this again. I'll be sticking to my drug store brand. I did not see a difference between my cheep brand and this one. The only difference was that my eyes itched like crazy within 10 minutes after applying. I have sensitive eyes and this did not work for me.

Review 5 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
love it!
-09.21.12
Quick Take: volumizing, defining, lengthening, curls
This mascara is amazing, and the little ball at the tip of the brush really maximizes every last lash. I have actually had people ask me if I'm wearing fake eyelashes when I have this on. I use with the Lancome cils booster XL.

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining, easy to use, glides on, non clumping, dries easlily
I bought this on a whim by the checkout conter because I hate being disappointed by a product when I buy it full size... but I was wrong! I need this in full size!
I love this Mascara! I'm a glasses wearer so it's important to make my eyes POP! This mascara does the trick. It gives me volume and length without fake lashes...oh yes MY LASHES ARE REAL ! I posted a review on my blog about my FAB Lashes! oh yes MY LASHES ARE REAL

Quick Take: volumizing, lengthening, defining
They do look amazing! I used to wear lancome and I will definitely be wearing this from now on - not clumpy or sticky, really separates, thickens, and lengthens. Definitely worth it, even in mini size!

Review 8 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
So Pleasantly Surprised
-09.11.12
Quick Take: volumizing, defining, lengthening
I received this as a deluxe sample and I think it is the best mascara I've ever used. I used Their Real! today for the first time and my sparse and clumpy lashes were separated, defined, and lengthened all day - even after a full 8 hrs. of work and a 4-hour motorcycle ride!!

Review 9 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
Best mascara ever!
-09.08.12
Quick Take: lengthening, defining, dramatic
Does exactly what it promises to do: lengthens dramatically, with a "fake eyelashes" look that lasts all day. I have super-short eyelashes that are never even visible with any other mascara, and I'd given up hope of having pretty eyelashes without using falsies — but this is my eyelashy savior.
It can get clumpy if you aren't careful to wipe off the brush before using it, but that's standard for mascara in my experience, so I can't hold that against this one specifically.
The only issue I have with it is that it's not waterproof and smudges below my eyes a little bit as the day goes on, what with the humid Florida air (and maybe I have a tendency toward moist eyes?). To fix that, I use a coat of clear mascara after applying this one. With that, They're Real! is the absolute best mascara I have ever used. I don't know if I'll ever use anything else again!

Review 10 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
If your on the fence BUY IT
-09.05.12
Quick Take: awesome
I am in a band, and before this I used the Bad Gal Lash, (still do for daytime looks) this stuff lasts through hot lights and sweat. no smell, brush is a rubber one so be careful!! meanina they are pretty hard so watch it in the lowerlash line..but it works BEAUTIFULLY, I wanted to try this when it first came out. Bought the travel size..love it!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE. no clumps, no lumps, no stickie stuff and it seperates WELL,. I do use a lash comb before use but I always have. this is dramatic lashes...you have to try it to see for yourself..

Review 11 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
Review 12 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
Wanted to love it, but did not.
-09.04.12
Quick Take: wispy clumping
I wanted to fall in love with this mascara. It seemed like a great concept and so many wrote such great reviews for it. I tried it several times but found it to be just like any average mascara. I definitely did not see a "false lash" effect. It actually even made my lashes look more sparse. I can see how it might work for other ladies, it works by adding volume. While this might be great if you already have pretty full lashes, if you have thin lashes (like me) it will just kinda clump your lashes together with no definition and separation. And it is not a bad clump is just is sort of like a spiked wispy clump. I did try to separate the lashes by running the brush over and over again, but that made the bad kind of clumping happen. I also tried a lash brush, but that just rubbed off the mascara and it looked like I put on too little mascara. Sorry to say, this is going back.

Review 13 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
Loved it, until the end of the day
-09.03.12
Quick Take: volumizing, defining
I have mixed feelings about this mascara. I love the way it makes my lashes look fuller, though I can never tell if they look longer. But by the end of the day my lashes feel very stiff, and I can't wait to take my makeup off. Other mascaras don't make me feel that way, so I probably won't repurchase--but dang if my lashes didn't look gorgeous!

Review 15 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
Almost perfect.
-08.27.12
Quick Take: volumizing, defining, lengthening
This mascara really goes on strong, providing length, definition, & volume. The brush seems to have a bit more product than needed on it when you take out the brush, but not to the point where it needs to be wiped off (Don't know if this is an issue with the full size). I thought the sphere with the bristles at the end of the brush was gimicky, until I tried it; It is perfect for coating the lashes in the inner and outer corner of your eyes!! Not something I'd personally use for a casual look all the time, but perfect for full-face & night looks.

Review 16 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
Adds a lot of length
-08.24.12
I purchased this in the trial size as I am always on a quest for the Holy Grail of mascaras. I really like this mascara-it adds a lot of length and is not at all clumpy. The only reason I took off a star is because it does not really add volume, but I didn't expect it to. I layer this with Tarte Lights, camera, lashes, which adds a ton of volume for wonderfully lush lashes. I will probably purchase again. I feel it lengthens as much as Diorshow, but is not as dry and the small tube lasted longer than the full sized Dior one.

Review 19 for They're Real! Mascara Mini
I like this mascara.
-08.19.12
This is a good mascara. I like the brush. It gets every lash. It does not clump. It holds up to crying while chopping onions. It stays on and comes right off with a little olive oil on a cotton ball. Love the cute mini size which is portable for a small handbag. You gotta try it yourself to see how good it is. 10.00 is not that much to pay for a good mascara.
