Lashtastic Review ofMaybelline Great Lashby

Advantages: Doesn't clump or flake, natural looking, cheap Disadvantages: None
I have been using this mascara for years and years now. I think I first tried it because many years ago I read in a magazine that it was a favourite of beauty editors and make up artists. I have tried many different types of mascara since but I always go back to this little gem.
This is apparently the No. 1 mascara in the USA. It promises perfectly defined lashes with a clean, separate finish, and that the lash building brush makes lashes fuller ... ...costs £4.99 in Boots (think it costs less in Tesco) and the tube contains 12.5ml. It comes in three shades, Blackest Black, Very Black and Brown. I normally buy Blackest Black but I haven’t noticed much difference between it and Very Black.
The packaging is rather striking, it definitely stands out from the crowd. The tube is bright pink with a green lid, not the most stylish of combinations and to be honest it looks a bit cheap and nasty, but do ...

Advantages: Cheap, sexy, cult status. Disadvantages: Just try *removing* it!
...available in the USA – Maybelline Great Lash mascara. According to the buzz in the magazines, this was the product that the entire cast of Sex and the City swore by! (Note – anything ever worn or indeed even *mentioned* by Sarah Jessica Parker usually gains instant cult appeal).
Everybody was suddenly sweet-talking their American cousins to send over a tube of this stuff – as if it would work some kind of magical miracle on our ... ...did I get it….
Maybelline Great Lash mascara is truly unique – the packaging alone sets it apart from it’s sisters. You’ll see from the wee photie at the top there, that this is definitely *not* a mascara with self esteem and shyness issues. With a bright pink body and a lime green top – this product screams ‘look at me!’ from all angles.
The product is thick, glossy and dark (I’m sure they stock ...

Advantages: Fairly cheap, waterproof, goes on well Disadvantages: Er, pink packaging!
...on the vast range of Maybelline mascaras available from plumping to lengthening to creating lashes where I didnt think there could be lashes!
In amongst this lot was the 'Great Lash' mascara, unmistakable in its pink and green packaging I picked it up for a closer look.
Hmm, I was promised 'Perfectly defined lashes with a clean, seperate look.' So far so good... nothing fancy there. Reading on I was pleased to discover that this mascara had everything ... ...everything I asked of it.
I got mine from Boots on the high street but I know you can also get it online at their website www.wellbeing.com and at the moment they are offering a free Maybelline bag when you buy online!
What more could you want? Recommended to all! ...

Advantages: It comes in a PINK tube:) Disadvantages: It's not always in the sale!
...black or silver tubes, yawn, Maybelline on the other hand has gone for the fresh and funky approach and have packaged theirs in a pink square tube with black writing and a lime green lid, me like:)! Colour Range:
I bought Very Black but you can also get Soft Black, Brownish Black, Dark Brown and Royal Blue. Very black is, surprise surprise, a very dark black colour. I would recommend soft black to those of you who want less dramatically black lashes.
... ...be ‘lash-building’ (although I can’t say I find it any different from normal wands). I find it is easier to use than some other mascaras as the wand is quite small, it goes on smoothly and only one coat is needed as it coats lashes sufficiently with one sweep, also it doesn’t leave any clumps if only one coat is applied. It separates lashes well instead of clumping them together like some mascara’s do.
Result:
Beautiful ...

Advantages: Easy To Apply Disadvantages: Only Lenghtens Lashes To An Extent
...your lashes.
The Mascara
Maybelline Great Lash Mascara claims that it will give you: "Perfectly defined lashes with a clean, separate finish".
I find that this macara seperates your eyelashes perfectly and enhances their look by making them appear fuller, thicker and more natural - no spider legs!
It also states that the Lash Building Brush makes them fuller and longer. It does make them longer but only to an extent. I have fairly small eyes ... ...I find it helps if I use eyelash curlers first then apply the mascara, but I just might have non-curly eyelashes.
This particular one isn't waterproof, as I found out this year in the pool on holiday, and I don't think Great Lash do a waterproof version.
It doesn't irritate my eyes and find it comes off easily using make-up remover. On some mornings, I do find that I have slight black marks under my eyes from my make-up the night before, but this ...

Advantages: Stays on Disadvantages: daughters pinch it
...!) he has these amazingly long lashes we women just dream off and yes my boys have all inherited them too-Am I jealous or what (my 3 year old has 1inch lashes-no joke we measured them)
What was I talking about? Oh yes mascara. Well even my daughter doesnt pinch that mascara-but thats for another op.
So reading through a few ops on GreatLash, I decided to give it a go......and a question here, Why dont we all buy waterproof? I personally have to cos I am such a cry baby.....I cry over films, my children and I cry from laughing so hard all the time.....
So in my local Walmart I picked up the 'famous' pink tube of MaybellineGreatLash Waterproof. This one has a black cap instead of the umm now what was it? Green ? thats the normal lid of GreatLash isnt it?
I am amazed that there is no packaging as such, I just picked...

Advantages: Gave me lovely lashes Disadvantages: Smudged
...I’m forever on a quest to find the perfect mascara and I’ve read lots of articles in the various gossip magazines in the past praising MaybellineGreatLash Mascara so I thought I’d give it a try. I bought the Waterproof version of this as I wear contact lenses and in my experience waterproof mascaras are better at not flaking off into my eyes. I paid £4.99 for this in Boots which I thought was an excellent price for a mascara. It is also available at supermarkets and pharmacies.
The packaging is a little cheap looking in my opinion. The tube is bright pink with black writing on it. It says Maybelline in the tiniest writing imaginable and then GREATLASH in big letters and then Waterproof in smaller letters, pink on black, underneath. It also says it’s 12.5ml. Made in France. The same information is on 2 sides of the tube which...

Advantages: Not many really Disadvantages: Flaky and dry
...I decided to try this mascara as som many magazines etc say how wonderful MaybellineGreatLash mascara is. I cannot pass comment on the regular variety but I found this waterproof one to be very disappointing.
The product is in a pink tube with bright green top so very distinctive and easy to spot. It has the wording in black down the side.
It cost me £4.79 in Boots but I'm sure a better price could be found if you shop around.
So, onto using the mascara: It took several coats to get a reasonable look anywhere near the full lash effect I like to achieve and it was very difficult to balance this against making it clumpy. Two or three hours after applying the mascara began to dry and flake a little, which proved very irritating. It also meant I had no chance of seeing whether it was waterproof - but it seems unlikely!
I...
