Packaging appeal from 1-10:
*6

Overall rating from 1-10:
*8

If you will or will not be purchasing this product again:
*No, I tend to switch cosmetics often to try new products. I normally don't buy things more than once, unless it's a very exceptional product.

Anything else you wish to include:
*This mascara is a good buy for the price. It typically lasts through a whole day, and does not come off with water. However, it's easy to remove with eye make-up remover. It did make my lashes fuller and longer, but I still had to use an eyelash curler to get any noticeable amount of curl. It did flake on occasion, but not enough to really notice.

Michelles' Pick:
DiorShow Mascara, Black
24$ Sephora

 


What the website says/promises the product will do:
*Creates the longest, thickest, curviest lashes ever, resulting in an ultra-glam "just-off-the-catwalk" look.

Packaging appeal from 1-10:
*8.5

Overall rating from 1-10:
*9

If you will or will not be purchasing this product again:
*Yes, I've been using this mascara for over a year now and I'm hooked on it. I love the huge brush and how I can wear it a full day without having to worry about smuging or re applying. The only draw back is that the normal version isn't water proof and does smear easily if dampened.
