Get Colossal Lashes Fast

Lashes that increase in volume by 9 times in just one coat? No clumps? Mascara that easily washes off with soap and water? These are tall tales, but are they true? This avid mascara wearer put them to the test.

Maybelline New York has just launched The Colossal Volum’ Express Washable Mascara.

First impressions: The packaging is cute. Yellow & purple will certainly make it easy to find in your handbag. Once opened, the brush was big, one of the biggest I’ve seen. That’s a good start, gives me hope that it will breathe life into my lackluster lashes.

Does it work: I position myself in front of the mirror, wand in hand. I make the first sweep, from root to tip. As I stand back to assess the situation, I am impressed. My lashes have transformed from mini to maxi in just one coat. And upon close inspection – no clumps! The mega brush seamlessly covers each individual lash & the volume-pumping collagen formula gives you the ultimate in intense lashes.

Will hubby notice: I casually saunter into the family room, fluttering my lashes like a 1950s movie star. “Have you done something different with your hair?” he asks. Oh well, you win some, you loose some.

Does it wash off: No more panda eyes for me!  It removes easily, without a trace.

Summary: A stylish mascara that delivers what it promises – extreme volume & fast, clean application.
