It's suppose to give you lashes that reach to the heaven, however, you barely notice any length on them at all. All that appears on your eyes are big clumps of black that even with the toughest make-up removers takes an age to remove.

For the recommendations and raving reviews this product got I was emensly disappointed. While it is waterproof this is one of the only positive things to say about the product and that it is a good "black" colour if you can find it onto the eyelashes rather than the rest of your face that's also a positive.
Advantages: Wands Okay ! Black THICKENING Disadvantages: TOO THIKENING ! clumpy , sticky evrything else bad
Well I brought this mascara a long time ago .
I had birthday money and thought i would splash out , A BIG splash out at nearly £15 !!!!
Well at 1st it was ok , i found the bent wand was ok but a little awkward ! Then the effects started wearing of and it got too clumpy , MY eyelashes would be clumped so thickly and majorly that i would have to remove it all and reapply with the same effect ! then the brush started get major clumped and flatend ...

Reviews which might be of interest for "Benefit Get Bent Mascara"
Advantages: Curls, seperates, no clumps for first 8 weeks Disadvantages: expensive, not very thick on lashes , runs out quickly
disappoint me a little
I have had this mascara for about 8 weeks and have found that it is now becoming clumpy and is running out. This has put me off buying it again. instead im considering buying the BenefitGetBentmascara which focuses more on curling.
So if you are looking for a mascara that will lightly curl, seperate and define your eyelashes, this is a good mascara but bare in mind that it doesnt last for a long time, will not be very thick and is expensive ...
Advantages: holds the curl, makes eyes look bigger Disadvantages: expensive
with the mascara on so I can't vouch for it being completely waterproof - but I know that it is definitely tear and rain proof, which is definitely a plus.
TIPS: - If you bend the wand of the mascara near the brush, like a BenefitGetBentmascara wand, the mascara is easier to apply without smudging and with more accuracy
-To really keep your eyelashes curled, you need to apply about three or four coats, but then it will last until you wash your face
INFORMATION: Most Benefit cosmetics are stocked in Boots, Debenhams and House of Fraiser. This particular mascara is only available in black, but I don't think this is a problem as is a good daily staple for your make-up!
OVERALL: I can genuinely recommend this mascara. It makes your eyes look bigger and keeps them curled for ages, but it is pretty expensive so you have to pay for the result ...
Advantages: Lasts all day, Lovely colours, Makes lips look kissable Disadvantages: none Ive found
Oh my gosh I can't believe I used that title! But I couldn't think of a more relevant description!
Sexy Mother Pucker? my current favourite lip gloss in my bag. (If you've read me in the past, aside from my recent reviews about baby products you'll notice that I am and always have been a make-up junkie) I need my make-up now, more than ever before to cover up all the broken nights sleep I've had in the past year! My morning routine goes something like: Benefits Some Kind of Gorgeous foundation, Touche Eclat, Benefits Benetint cheek tint, BenefitsGetBentMascara, a quick dash of Benefits Dandelion blusher and last but in no ways least a slick of Soap and Glory's 'Sexy Mother Pucker' And believe me, if I've got something in my make-up bag that isn't by Benefit you can rest assured it's a fabulous product.
I love Kitsch packaging. I ...
