I'm forever on the search for a mascara that actually lives up to its claims. So having gotten bored of my maybelline 'great lash' mascara I went in search of a new one that didn't cost the earth.

Whilst browsing the Boots website I noticed that this particular mascara had a lot of positive reveiws. So I jumped right in and went to my nearest Boots to pick one up (I had lots of advantage points)

**Packaging**

This mascara comes in a 6ml tube. Its is green with a bue top (and if your like me, you will get home and panic that you have purchased electric blue mascara!) It has define-a-lash written on the side and also the fact that it is waterproof.

**Price**

This mascara normally retails at £7.99 but I did purchase this with Boots points. Maybelline products are normally on offer in most shops at some point so it is worth looking out for a bargain.

**Does it do what it states?**

Well this mascara states that it is 'zero clump'. When you take the brush out from the tube you do notice that there are no clumps but the brush is different from others that I have seen. For starters that actual brush is rubber and is very flexible. The are no 'bristles' which helps the mascara not to clump.

When applying the mascara it does go one evenly and there are no horrible clumps however my lashes don't look particuarly defined. They just look like lashes. Suppose this would be ok if you like the 'very natural' look but not if you like people to know that you are wearing make - up.

It is worth pointing out that there is a 'volumising' mascara in this range however it does not appear to be waterproof which is why I didn't buy it.

Basically its an ok mascara but my search will continue once this one is finished.
