Maybelline New York The Colossal Volum' Express Waterproof Mascara : Review

I picked up the Volum' Express Waterproof Mascara from the Maybelline New York Colossal Range. Read on to find out my views on this Mascara.

Here is what the brand claims:

Price : INR 350/ $5.29

I am pro waterproof Mascaras. You never know when it might come in handy. I mainly tried this mascara because it is a waterproof mascara.

The product comes in a plastic packaging. I quite liked the packaging as it is small and compact. It is also travel friendly. The mascara wand and the brush is nothing special, brush is quite big though. Here is another zoomed in view:

I usually apply this mascara after curling my eyelashes. I first apply one coat, wait for it to dry and then apply a second coat. It does give decent enough volume to my eyelashes. However, it also makes my eyelashes clumpy. It dries very fast so after a while it starts to flake. It is heavy on the lashes and I feel like I am carrying a lot of weight on my lashes. The mascara is hard to remove but if you would use a very good oil based Eye make-up remover, it will come off easily compared to if you use a Bioderma or any other Miceller water . I also find that a couple of eye lashes fall after I remove this mascara.

For me this mascara did not work at all. I do however know a lot of people who actually like this product. It is a drug store product so it is very affordable and easy on the pocket. For me, the falling of the lashes was a real huge scare so I am not going to be repurchasing this mascara.  This one gets a Thumbs Down from me!
