Thanks to a patented Lash Catcher brush, this mascara manages to coat each and every lash to create a longer looking, well defined lash line. Oh, and it’s waterproof too, making it great for gym, sad movies and long walks in the rain.
What we say:
‘Unlike other waterproof mascaras I’ve used in the past, this one did more than simply “blacken up” my lashes. I loved how it really did lengthen and thanks to the special brush, even the teeny tiny ones. The best bit, however, is how the brush “combed” the mascara through my lashes, from root to tip, and the formula simply refused to clump, no matter how many coats I applied. Love that!’

My go to mascara! All the Maybelline mascaras I have tried are fantastic.. but I still always seem to go back to this one.
The pink and turquoise tube is eye catching and matches nicely with the shape and design of the other Maybelline “Express” mascaras.
Its plastic brush and bristles keep every application clump free and the mascara doesn’t collect in the brush.
All lashes are covered in just a few strokes. And gives the final affect of natural looking false lashes.
And it really is waterproof! I have even swam whilst wearing it and it doesn’t run or smudge.
Does take an oil based make up remover and a little more time to remove properly though.

It’s super easy to get off with the proper make up remover and gives a really full lash affect. It doesnt run or smudge when its set which is also a plus.

The pink & green mascara!
This was the 1st Maybelline product I was introduced to by my sister way back in the day and it’s how I got to know about beauty brands. My sister would buy this product from Clicks & during my teen stages I would steal it when going for contests or performances at school.
I remember the 1st time I put on a mascara and I looked like I had shoe polish on my eyes. All I knew then was I had to close my eyes and apply it. After that, I had to open my mouth as all ladies still do even today when applying it.
Maybelline products have been on the shelves years & I’m surprised that they’ve been in the beauty industry for 100 years, which means it’s a good quality brand that it is easily accessible & affordable at the same time.
I ended up loving this mascara too, no smudges, soft brush & no eye irritation.
I have used quite a few different mascaras, and this one is my favourite. I now don’t try any others. Whenever I wear this one, people always ask whether I am wearing false lashes :-)

Definitely one of my all time favourite mascaras. It fans out the eyelashes beautifully, and really does a great job at separating each and every eye lash. Furthermore, it doesn’t have any fallout around the eyes later during the day and it holds the curl perfectly for hours after application. The only problem I had with this was that it seemed like it dried out quite a bit within 2 months. However, overall, this is an excellent mascara and I would definitely recommend that everyone gives it a try!

This is a fabulous mascara to use in summer – especially when you are on the beach/ swimming and you still want to keep your lashes looking gorgeous! There is no smudging and it is easy to remove with a make up wipe.

Maybelline is my favorite mascara brand. I would love to try this one, I currently have the non-waterproof one.

My eyes tear a lot. I should definitely give this a try.

Maybelline rarely goes wrong with mascara and this one is another feather in their hat. The wand is perfect for ladies with short lashes who want a bit of volume and fullness. And because of the shape of the bristles, it makes application to the lower lashes a mess free dream. The formula is not too wet and once it sets, it stays in place until you wash it off. At first I thought I would hate it because I felt like it didn’t help my lashes (I have long lashes but need help with fullness) but I soon figured out that in my case, two coats are better than one! I love this mascara and will definitely repurchase.

I don’t have thick long lashes but this mascara definitely helped me created the illusion of fuller and longer lashes. I love it!
