COVERGIRLLash Blast Volume Mascara, Very Black

Great color for 65+. Looks softer. Also waterproof and smudge resistant. Will definitely buy again.

This mascara is easy to apply, looks great and not clumpy, still looks good despite rain and a long day. One thing of note is it does make my eyelashes stick together when I blink which can be irritating.

This is great for the price. It doesn't clump, it's super-dark, it's got a great brush and it fattens and lengthens my short and nearly invisible lashes so that you can actually see them.Will it make you look like you have fake lashes on? No. But it will absolutely make your real lashes look substantially better.I'm deducting one star because a glob of mascara was stuck to the end of the brush when I pulled it out for the third time. But I still highly recommend this if you're looking for a solid budget mascara.

Best mascara for the price

I’ve used this for years and love it, but this purchase I was sent waterproof.I realized it as I was washing my face.I’ve lost half of my eyelashes now trying to wash it off.

Overall, I can say I'm satisfied with this mascara itself.I've been using the Maybelline Great Lash but saw great reviews on this one so thought I'd give it a try.As far as mascara goes, I really don't see any difference between this and the Maybelline Great Lash.The brush is shaped differently - - fatter and with shorter silicone bristles than the Maybelline. It took a little practice b/c at first I found that my lashes clumped more with this than with the Maybelline, but using a little lighter hand with this achieves a nice and similar result.It does work as advertised - - - waterproof and smudge proof through hot weather, workouts and even swims.My biggest peeve with this, and the reason I'll be going back to Maybelline Great Lash when I run through this tube, is the shape of the tube and wand. I'm not talking about the brush itself, but the shape of the wand handle that you hold onto while applying the mascara.Am I the only one that finds the conical shape hard to hold onto? Or maybe I just happen to apply my mascara differently than others do.I typically hold onto the wide part of the brush handle to apply to the majority of my lashes, but then I always slide my fingers down to the top part of the handle when I apply to my bottom and outer edge lashes. I cannot tell you how many times the brush has squirted out of my fingers when I adjust my hold onto it.The conical shape that narrows toward the end make it difficult to hold onto. This is made worse because the plastic is sort of micro-textured and doesn't really allow a nice finger hold at the narrow end.Silly to judge a mascara on the packaging, but the Maybelline gives me the same result without the dropsies and mess. Sorry CoverGirl.

Love how this looks and feels. Easy to remove and doesn't clump.

This is the only mascara I'll wear, for years now. The brush separates well, and it really is waterproof.
