Maybelline Colossal Volume Express Mascara Claims:
Price: 330 INR for 10.7ml
- Waterproof mascara
- Upto 7x more volume
- Instantly in just one coat
- No clumps
- Collagen enriched formula
Price: 330 INR for 10.7ml
Look & Feel:
- Package: A bright eye-catching yellow big plastic tube. The wand comes out easily from the tube. It's a pretty convenient packing.
- Applicator: The wand's length is convenient but I prefer a thinner wand for better grip and easy application. The bristles are packed appropriately for separating and volumizing the lashes.
- Odour? None
- Texture: The formula is with the right consistency and smoothness to give non clumping lashes. However it feels a little heavy on lashes. One can feel the presence of mascara through out the day.
Effects:
- Lengthening? Can notice lengthening with 3-4 coats.
- Volumizing? Gives full lashes with two coats but for dramatic lashes one needs 3-4 coats.
- Drying Time? No doubt it dries soon but surprisingly it feels sticky to touch as long as it's on the lashes.
- Curls? No it doesn't. One needs to use an eye lash curler separately to open the eyes.
- Lasting Power? Till cleansed with a make-up remover.
- Waterproof? Yes no messy bleeding for watery eyes and helpful in the monsoons.
- Finish? Lashes look full but the mascara looks too obvious. I prefer lashes to look long and full with a natural effect.
Final Note: For ladies with long but sparse lashes this would be useful to add volume. But for people like me who needs Curling+Volumizing+Lengthening in 2 coats this will not be sufficient. "7X volume in one coat" claim is a farce

Hello Simera :)

but ya I have alwaz read good reviews abt this mascara but it didn't wrk fr me

I think you are applying too much of the product.....so you end up feeling heavy. Use less, try eyelash curler for curling effect
