Maybelline Full N' Soft Waterproof - Very Black

Cannot seem to buy this mascara in stores near me so have always had to get my daughter in Australia to send me 6 at a time . Could not believe I could find it on Amazon … thrilled is an understatement

This is a great product. Does not clump and has great staying power! Would recommend!

Not a bad mascara but doesn't help with curl, I have long lashes but pretty straight. I suppose with the mascara being "softer" on the lashes which is nice it doesn't really fix in a curl. It does smudge a little so I do have to use a mascara sealer which cures that problem. Overall not bad but probably wouldn't buy again.

I love this mascara was excited to be able to order this. Only one came but the seller seems happy to refund partially

This is the best mascara I've ever used. I've tried so many different kinds of mascara, only because you can't find this anywhere in the UK, but I always end up buying this one again online. It applies so smoothly, and creates a natural, full lash look. It also leaves my lashes looking healthy after wearing it, and it doesn't irritate/dry out my lashes like most other waterproof mascaras do.

I bought this as it came top in a search for mascaras that were good for people with allergies to mascara, I only had it on one day and it is irritating straight away, so very disappointed. The only thing I will say if you don’t have any problems it is a very nice mascara

Admittedly lashes are soft and the colour is nice but I did not find it very waterproof and it smudged by the end of the day. Gave second one to my daughter and she said the same.

I could have been putting black water on my lashes worst mascara I have ever purchased

Overal a great mascara! I love how soft my lashes feel. But rather difficult to remove

Bonne qualité

It was not as expected to be. I really do not understand the hype . It was rather dry and slightly difficult to apply. The worse part was that when I tried to remove it, I lost some of my good lashes.

My favourite mascara. Try others sometimes, but don’t know why I bother. Find it washes off well with face cleaner in the shower. Slight panda eyes sometimes (underneath) after removing this way, but just use a cotton bud under eyes to remove last traces. My absolute fav mascara for all round look and removal. x

This is, by far, my favorite mascara on the planet. I've been using it exclusively for most of my life (since about 14). It's thick, dark, and buildable, it doesn't clump or smudge, and goes on smoothly. But the best feature - it doesn't dry solid. Lashes still move and have a natural look and feel. It comes off effortlessly with a little castor/olive oil (1:1) mixture and bonus, the oils are excellent for lash health. I recently asked myself whether botox will be one of those beauty standards where future generations look back at us and wonder what the heck we were thinking. Mercury, arsenic, lead, Belladonna, and even radioactive compounds have all been used throughout time in the name of "beauty". We look back at those standards now and gasp at the thought of using lead on our faces or ingesting arsenic for skin clarity. But, how is injecting toxins into our bodies to slow/stop nerve signals any different? I've never actually had injections of any kind, though I've contemplated it. Always after my contemplation, however, this question remains. That then lead me to a deeper, more day to day question - what's in my makeup? So I started to research each product and pay attention to ingredients. I don't wear a lot of makeup so there weren't many products to search, but this mascara was the main one. It's also the product that brought up the most interesting results. Apparently there is a lawsuit against major cosmetic brands for using PFAs (forever chemicals - Google them) in their products without disclosing them on the ingredients list. While this particular formula was not mentioned, the lawsuit targets mostly "waterproof" products. This formula does contain mineral oil and a couple other things that aren't the best for us, so it does make you question further whether there are suspicious ingredients that they failed to "mention". Now, this review is not calling out this specific formula or company in particular. PFAs are everywhere, and found in almost everything including but definitely not limited to nonstick pots/pans (Teflon), and microwave popcorn bags. It's in so many areas across our environment, it's really quite shocking when you start breaking it down. This was just a catalyst to a deeper overall thought process about my makeup. At any rate - I'll keep this one on subscription (just maybe not as often) and continue to use it for special events or when I need the staying power, but I'm switching to a non waterproof cleaner formula for daily use. It might be a drop in the bucket comparatively, but drops do add up. My hope is that companies start doing more research into the chemicals they're using, and maybe find healthier solutions for long term use. Remember, lead was widely used across industries for millennia, including the beauty industry. We now know better. And just because these products and ingredients aren't regulated at the highest federal level doesn't mean they can't be self regulated. Do better for yourselves, your customers, and your companies, not because the federal government says so. Beauty shouldn't be painful anymore.
