I got a little sample of this amazing mascara in a deluxe Macy's order. To say I was impressed is saying it minor. I thought I had long lashes naturally, but WOW! I've had friends stop and ask me if I'm wearing false lashes. It goes on truly clump free. I'm a mascara diva and normally have to put on 2-3 coats of other brands. When wearing L'Extreme one coat is plenty. This tube sets you back about $23, but will last 3-4 months. This mascara doesn't flake, smudge or smear. Holy Grail Brand!!!
