Brings back a lot of fond memories for me, to first getting into makeup. Unfortunately, the nostalgia is better than reality when it comes to using this now. The bristles are hard and stiff, and the wand actually hurts my eyes while applying. This mascara clumps a lot for me, perhaps more than any other mascara I've used. Overall, I would not recommend it. There are other drugstore mascaras that are in the same price range but are much better.

I use this in a similar fashion to how I use ELF's clear brow definer/mascara. It works great to keep your eyebrows in place after defining them with either a pencil or powder. I've also used it on one of my friends with extremely thick, long natural lashes and it worked well to define them. When I use it on myself as an actual mascara, I don't notice much of a benefit to using the clear. I prefer the black instead.

I used this and Maybelline's Great Lash mascara when I was a teenager first getting into mascara. Both of them do wonders in the volume department, but have a high tendency to clump from what I've found. It doesn't do much in the length department. Still, for $3 at the drugstore, it's a pretty solid buy if you're looking for a volumizing mascara.

This is an absolute bargain. I never use it on my lashes; it really doesn't do much in that regard. But I absolutely love using it for my eyebrows, to keep them in place. Amazing product for the money spent.

My lashes are full and soft after using this mascara, and it doesn't clump the way some of the other Maybelline mascaras tend to. My lashes don't get sticky or stiff when I use this, either. A solid purchase, in my opinion.

This week I ordered SHANY products for the first time (2 sets of eyeliners - the slim and the chunky - and this Bold & Bright eyeshadow palette). I've had a lot of luck listening to Amazon reviews when it comes to makeup products (especially with my Coastal Scents palettes, and my Nabi lipliners), so when I saw this for such a low price, I thought "why not!?" I'm glad I went for it. For the money, this palette is amazing. Pros: * As I already mentioned - the price is amazing. $12.95 with Prime Shipping when I snagged it. Can't beat that! * The palette came very well packed. 2 bubble wrappers outside the box, and one inside. All of the shadows were intact. * The colors really are bold and bright. Some of them need to be built up, but the colors are really brilliant. * The variety is incredible. A lot of palettes leave me wishing there were different/more shades, but not this one. Cons: * Some of the colors are amazingly pigmented, while others are not. * In order to really get the color to pop, this requires multiple layers or to be used wet. * They also really need to be used with a primer in order to get a really bold look from them. Aside from those small cons, they also (as is true with a lot of the more affordable eyeshadows) tend to have quite a bit of fallout. Overall, I must say I'm very happy with my purchase and would highly recommend this palette to those looking for new colors to play with. Awesome purchase.
