Let me start by saying that I have never been a fan of Maybelline Great Lash (although I do love Maybelline's Volume Express Mascara Line a lot! It was my favorite prior to Revlon's Grow Luscious Plumping Mascara), and I have always wondered why it wins numerous beauty awards every year. The brush is kind of thin to me, and it doesn't do much for my fine, somewhat long lashes.
That being said, I was excited to try Maybelline's new Great Lash Lots of Lashes, with the new Christmas tree shaped plastic brush...Although I am not crazy about plastic mascara brushes (i.e. Cover Girl Lash Blast line), I thought the new shape may make a difference. I admit it, I am always excited to try a new mascara. As the name implies, who wouldn't want lots of lashes???
Well, grab your lashes this wand does. But, after three coats, this mascara makes my long but fine lashes look spidery and covered with mascara, and two coats just didn't seem to thicken my lashes at all. I actually looked like I had less lashes, as the ones I have ended up clumped together. This is not a mascara to "Plump" fine lashes, as it claims. The way the brush works along with the mascara formula would probably work best for people with already thick lashes that just need them defined or lengthened. After one use, I tossed this mascara in my purse to be used in case of emergency. I am back to my Revlon Grow Luscious Plumping with the standard nylon brush with multiple finely spaced bristles, (which, by the way, has seemed to make my fine lashes grow and seem like they are thicker after 3 months of use. I love it!).
Bottom Line- Skip this mascara unless you are already blessed with thick lashes. Try Revlon Grow Luscious Plumping, or Maybelline's The Colossol Volume Express or Volume Express Falsies mascara instead.
Where to Buy- Drugstores everywhere, or Target online.
