REVIEW: Maybelline Colossal Volum' Express Mascara

In order for any mascara to come close to my beloved Maybelline Full n Soft, it has to be shit hot. I've tested a fair few, and most of them weren't even worthy of writing about. One was so awful, I took it off in the bathroom at work and went mascara-free for the rest of the day, came home and threw it straight in the bin.

The only one so far has been Australis Lash Me Mousse Mascara, if you haven't tried it, I insist that you do - it will rock your world.

Before I tried Maybelline's new mascara Colossal Volum' Express, I was torn. Maybelline make the best mascaras for me, could this stand up to the scrutiny?

I needn't have worried, I'm hooked. Not a single clump could be found, with each lash defined, plumped and reaching for the sky.

I've found that the big brushes work best for me as they get deep into my long lashes and help separate them, which is usually by biggest problem with mascaras. This has one of the biggest brushes I have ever seen.

Panda rating on eyes after shower: 3

The verdict? Excellent. Easy to apply, easy to remove, but stays put. Gives volume and length without being clumpy.

Maybelline Colossal Volum' Express Mascara is available in Australia for around AU$17.95

I had this one, but didnt like it. 'cause its seems to dry out very quickly. :/ I prefer Maybelline Vibrating Mascara and the pink Define a Lash much better.^^
