              I've had bad luck with Maybelleine mascara products in the past. They would clump, make my eyes itch, sometimes smell a bit funky or too much fragrance in it AND worst of all... make my eyes look like something out of the "Rocky Horror Picture Show"!!!!!

             When I saw it on sale i mustered up my courage to try it. Simple instructions...a good start... a little concerned about something I read, water proof but washes off easily with water(something like that) Did that mean it whould flake in the rain??  I checked a couple of specks one day, none another.

             I didn't like the brush at first, it was a bit awkward, not what I'm used to. It didn't clump but made myeyelashes stick together in odd places, not a look I was going for :) Once I got the hang of the applicator it improved (Thank God!)

          I got curious about the part  that said to apply only while lashes are wet. So I let them dry and applied more. Yikes!!!!! That's when it clumps, and flakes , alot. Ugh!

            It went on thin at first, real thin ... the first dip showed nothing on the applicator. Had to dunk two more times just to coat the applicator. Then I hat to put a couple of coats on lashes, not bad though.

            Now that I'm more used to this product I can get that almost natural look I like!

            It is easy to wash off and I like that. 

            I definitely reccomend this mascara.

This mascara has speckled at all. In fact, I had a rough day the other day and actually cried!!!! My mascara held up beautifully though - better than I did! :-)

Didi you end up trying it yet? I can now say it doesn't bother my eyes in allergy season.

I still want to find one that's not greasy and doesn't test on animals. The mascara is holding up ok.

It was a bit tricky. AND once in awhile it does clump, but not like a lot of other mascaras. I'm still liking it though. Does yours speckle a bit in the rain?

I use Almay eyemake up remover also. I wear contacts and it works great!

I use this one too. It took me a while to get used to the flexible brush but I really like it now.

I've had good luck with Almay. There's one I also get sometimesat a natural food store but I can't think of it at the moment. I'll get back to you again when I do.

I'll have to try this one. I'm burned out on my current mascara. Do you have a fave eye makeup remover?
