Clinique Lash Power Mascara Review

I purchased the Clinique Lash Power mascara after a suggestion from a Clinique representative.  I wanted to find a mascara that would not flake off under my eyes.  I was assured this was the mascara for me.  I liked the fact that it would come off with warm water and I didn't have to purchase another eye makeup remover.  It went on fantastic and I really liked the color since it made my lashes quite dark.

I didn't love it though and actually ended up returning it.  Basically, it covered well, but didn't make my lashes look any thicker, so I felt like my eyes didn't stand out as much as I like them to look since it just appeared my lashes were thinner.  Also, I found that it did flake off just as much as all my other mascara's do.  Now, this may be because I have allergies that bother my eyes and I probably touch/rub my eyes more than I should.  I just found that little flakes would come off and end up IN my eyes and that would be irritating.  I probably would have kept the mascara even with this "problem" because I did like the way it glided on and felt.  But, I didn't think it was worth paying $7+ more for a mascara that had the same problems for me that the store brands did.
