Maybelline....maybe lies

Advantages: There aren't any
Disadvantages: Everything they claim...is false

Maybelline Sky High Curves Mascara - Very Black I'm a girl who likes a change every now and again. I love the mascara I use, Rimmel Extra Super Lash. (See my review) but I'm always on the look out for something better. I wondered if there was a better mascara on the market that would make my eyelashes look even better, so I read a few reviews on Ciao and decided to try Maybelline Sky High Curves Mascara. It promised lots of things but unfortunately ...
...BRIEF BACKGROUND TO MAYBELLINE Maybelline was launched in the UK in 1998. To reflect the sassy, trendy products they decided to call the brand Maybelline New York. Maybelline say women across the country fall in love with their innovative products and affordable prices, and they have become the fastest growing mass-market cosmetics brand in the UK. Mascara is supposedly the core of their brand. THE PACKAGING The mascara comes on a piece of card ...

Another over-hyped product

Advantages: Very waterproof, dramatic definition
Disadvantages: Less curves than my beanpole of a boyfriend

...a waterproof version, then. Maybelline is a brand recognised all over Europe and the USA, albeit under several different names. I have used their products before and largely find them to be very good, although I think sparkly lipsticks are for kids... ahem. I would certainly trust their excellent reputation as makers of the world's most purchased mascara (Great Lash, in case you haven't read the beauty columns). I chose this particular one from ...
...a Maybelline product would probably be worth the price (£6.99 in Boots for me). The mascara comes in a sky-blue tube about six inches long, with a slightly bulbous lid - can't think of a better way of putting it. It's clearly marked with "sky high curves" in dark blue writing, and the description "Extreme Length and Curl Mascara" curves upwards to further underline the point. The packaging around the tube did mention that it was safe for contact ...

Flutter Those Lashes

Advantages: Full, Long, Lashes
Disadvantages: None

...can I tell you about Maybelline Sky High Curves Mascara? Do those adverts really tell the truth? Did I get then extension look of false eyelashes ? The TV advertisment claims; 'Maybelline Sky High Curves Mascara will lengthen your lashes "to the extreme" and give them a 30-degree curve.' This was my first ever Mascara by Maybelline that I had purchased about 6 weeks ago. I paid £6.99 from Boots. ☼ The Product: This Mascara comes in a round ...
...with Silver writing. It says; Maybelline in small letters at the top and across the length of the bottle is Sky High Curves, Extreme Length and Curl Mascara.On top of the lid is a silver plastic dome shape. Upon opening the bottle the smell is the same as any mascara non too pleasant. To be honest the brush doesnt look special. You get 0.27 fl oz or 8ml of this mascara in a bottle. The colours available are Black and Brown. On the Maybelline Website ...

Vainly reaching for the sky

Advantages: Does lenthen and thicken your lashes noticably
Disadvantages: Expensive, and not that much better than the cheaper Great Lash

...there own /have owned a Maybelline Great Lash mascara? I bet quite a few! Like so many others I love the original Maybellinge mascara, and keep trying their new products. Looking for a lenthening/thickening mascara for use primarelly on small stages and maybe for the odd night out I tried the Sky High Curves mascara by Maybelline. Maybelline claim that their mascara will lengthen and thicken your lashed without causing any damage. The flexible polymers ...
...stretches and moulds to the lashes for extreme length and curl, at the same time as a lightweight formula, enriched with conditioning and softening properties, keeps lashes flexible and healthy. Also, the brush is specially created to bend and curl the lashes. So how much of this works in reallity? The mascara does definatelly make a big difference to your eyes. The lashes are easilly seperated from each other, and the formula is thin and easy ...

at last a mascara that lives up to its name!

Advantages: brilliant length,good value
Disadvantages: cant think of any, its that good!

i used the waterproof version of this and was truly truly amazed!! usually i have a mascara for the evening to lengthen etc, and wear a waterproof one during the day. however this mascara allows me to have the length and curl i want for lovly eyes AND gives the practicallity of a waterproof mascara during the day! i have quite short eyelashes but this mascara adds so much length that people actually commented on my 'lovly long lashes'!! it goes ...
...bush has nice long bristles which means that it coats the lashes evenly its even easy to get those lashes at the corner of the eye. its brilliantly waterproof, i wore this on holiday and was confident to wear it for swimming and sunbathing - thats how reliable this is! its really good value for money, and i'm sure i'm not the only one who has tried dozens of mascaras only to be annoyed (and out of pocket!) when they dont have the effects that we ...

Sky High excitement!!

Advantages: Fluttery, dramatic, sexy, long, exciting eyelashes!!!!
Disadvantages: none that i found.

...have finally found the wonderful Maybelline Sky High Curves Mascara! This in my opinion is the best mascara on the market and i will never use anything else as regular as i use this. Yes i may try different brands but purely for market research as i am very gullible and will try anything new. As always you can never beat black mascara for the dramatic look. Ok brown is fine for the natural look but whats the point in wearing make-up unless you want ...
...applied the first coat of this mascara i was hooked and find myself staring into mirrors (not because im vain !) because i cannot believe the change in my whole face that this mascara gives. My eyes are quite small and lack definition but as soon as i apply two coats of this fantasticly brilliant product i am transformed into a wide eyed, long lashed woman. I feel more feminine and flutter my eyelashes at anyone who comes my way. I have never received ...

Not what the adverts made out

Advantages: waterproof (it won't budge unless you want it to)
Disadvantages: goes clumpy

...was that the mascara clogged up in the tube after a few applications and so it made my eyelashes clump together. I would expect a big company like Maybelline to have come up with a way of stopping this from happening but obviously they are still working on it! ...

My new daily mascara!

Advantages: Curves well, adds definition and colour
Disadvantages: None that I can think of

I am always a bit dubious when I see mascaras that claim to do amazing things, so I was a bit sceptical that this could curve my lashes. However, it was on special offer in Boots so I decided to bite the biscuit and give it a go. And I must say that I was very impressed. I found that the mascara applied very easily and managed to define my lashes whilst applying some volume. Whilst it didn't curve my eyelashes like I can with a manual tool, there ...
...eyes stand out. What was even better was that was it kept my eyelashes curved throughout the day when most of the other mascaras I've tried tend to drop. When I came to take it off, I found that it washed off very easily and didn't leave any irritating residue at the base of my lashes. It was perfect for my sensitive eyes! ...

An great, natural looking mascara

Advantages: Natural, striking eyes
Disadvantages: Not for those who want something dramatic

...at the cheaper products by maybelline as I wanted something for casual everyday wear: a lot of mascaras advertise as being x10 volume and 100% more striking eyes!!! So I picked up this one - simple length and curl. I bought it in brown as I found black was looking too unnatural on me. Brush: Lots of fine bristles, dispersed around the brush in a seemingly random way. I got home, applied a coat. Seemed to be doing okay, so I put another one on. Unlike ...
...keep on coating it on without it sticking together my lashes. What's more is that with each layer it lengthed my lashes that bit extra. It was very easy to apply to my bottom lashes. How it looked: As with most mascaras, it is always obvious that you are wearing some sort, however, this was on the subtle side. Little clumping, very long lashes, did what it said it would do. I would highly recommend it especially for people with finer lashes - my ...

Sky High Curves

Advantages: Actually does what it says on the tin!
Disadvantages: Doesn't make your lashes look like the false ones in the advert! Heehee

...give it a try". Maybelline claim that this mascara will lengthen your lashes "to the extreme" and give them a 30-degree curve. The brush is a unique triangular shape and quite full, so it looked promising. As usual I took the brush to my lash roots and zig-zagged the brush through the length to the tips. Without letting the first coat dry, I applied a second coat. I did notice a real lengthening effect, but didn't really see this 30-degree curl ...
...I went back to the mirror about half an hour later, there was a definite curl to my eyelashes. I didn't get the protractor out to see if it was exactly 30-degrees...but there was a real curl. I wouldnt say that everyone MUST own this product, but if you're ready for a new one I'd recommend giving this a try. At £7.99 a pop, this mascara isn't a wee cheapy, but it isn't at the top end of the price scale either. All in all, a good quality, effective ...

WHAT A LET DOWN

Advantages: deep colour
Disadvantages: very bitty

I was very disapointed with this mascara I normally use their "great lash" which lives up to its name but sadly this mascara does not . The brush seemed much too overloaded and left little bits on the ends of my lashes which then fell off as it set. I didnt notice any curl at all in fact my lashes just stuck out at odd angles. I could see bits dangling out of the corners of my eyes and my eyelashes felt heavy even though I had only used one coat. ...
...comment from my 11 year old daughter summed it up "You look like you have a dead spider on your eyes" -not what you want to hear just as you are about to walk out of the door! Over all I would not recommend this to any one and think I will stick to my trusty eyelash curlers in future. ...
