Melissa Tried It: I admit, I sort of have a new mascara crush. This formula promises lasting, super-sized volume incorporating olive oil to condition & plump lashes from the inside out in the process.
My requests from a mascara are pretty well-defined: a) I want mega volume; b) I don't want it to give me pointy, hard lash tips; c) I don't want it to smudge or budge; d) no clumps!, even with the multiple...multiple coats I like to apply. This delivered almost 100% on all four points. This volume has wow factor without being clownish, still has a soft feel (often where waterproof formulas face their downfall), and stayed put throughout the day. A little less than perfect was an occasional tendency to clump slightly while applying multiple coats; this was eliminated by making sure the giant brush didn't have excess product on it after reinserting it into the tube for multiple applications.
When removing, this does flake a bit...but while you're wearing it, it just looks amazing. $8.99, drugstores.
