I have naturally long eyelashes, so any mascara I buy needs to deliver more on volumising than on lengthening effect. I bought this product for the "volume" in the name. The mascara is supposedly great for "clubbing" as it is very waterproof and resistant to smudging.

- Price and Packaging -
The mascara contains 11ml of product and retails at an RRP of £7.99, but because this is quite an old product now you can often find it for a lot less either online or in discount shops.
The packaging is a chunky tube which varies in colour depending on the colour of the mascara itself, with gold and silver lettering. The tube is thicker and more than most other mascaras, which could be a problem if like me you like to take your make-up out with you in your handbag, as it's chunky and takes up more room.

- Application and wear -
For the first few uses the mascara is quite wet, but it does thicken up a bit after a couple of weeks, making it less likely to run and smudge when you're applying it. The brush is medium sized with short, dense bristles and comes out coated with a lot of product. As such, this mascara has a tendency to clump easily, so due care needs to be taken when applying it. Two coats gives a lovely thick, volumised look to your eyelashes. The look isn't subtle, and can be built up for really dramatic lashes with a few coats.
I have the mascara in "Ultra Black", and it is a really dark black mascara, highly pigmented. The mascara lives up to the waterproof claims, it doesn't budge even if you cry, or do loads of exercise (or dancing in a club) with it on. The only problem is because of this it's very difficult to remove at night. It takes at least two tries with eye make-up remover to get rid of.

- Conclusion -
If you want dramatic, volumised lashes and a mascara that won't budge one bit then this is for you. If you can't deal with the possibility of clumped lashes or taking a while to remove it, stay away.
