I have been using this product for about 3 months now and absolutely love it!!!
I have gone through many differnt mascaras and have now found my HG mascara. Only problem is, I think thousands of other women feel the same since it is sold out almost everywhere I go.
Previoulsy I have used Cover Girl Lash exact- nice mascara- it defined the lashes very well, but didn't give me the volume I was looking for. Lashes were defined, but short looking.
Then I tried the Cover Girl Volume exact Mascara- more volume- but kind of clumpy.
With both of the CG mascaras I found the tube dried out quite quickly (in about 3 weeks).
Then I tried Maybelline turbo boost- nice length and volume and great blackest black color- but it did leave a raccoon ring around my eyes.
Benefit Bad Gal- left a raccoon ring as well.
Lancome Fatale- ok, but not really worth the $$
DiorShow- LOOOOVED it! Eyelashes were thick, lush and long- but I did get a tad bit of raccoon ring as well. Also it was $$$, and the top part of the tube broke with half of the product still in it, so I was quite dissappointed!
Then I came across Revlon 3D extreme- I didn't have any high expectations, but wow, is this mascara great!!! I think too much comes out on the brush, so you might have to wipe it on the top of the tube or else you will get clumpies. I have zero trace of raccoon rings, my lashes are thicker and longer than any of the other mascaras I've used.
I started off using blackest black, but everywhere I go, it is sold out. I recently got my hands on just "black" and I can't see a difference between that and blackest black.
I've had so many compliments on my eyes since using this mascara! |

Canadian Girl, thanks for the great review!
I'm always on the lookout for a great mascara, but it may be hard to track this one down. I'll look for it tomorrow when I go shopping. |

Canadian Girl,
I see there are some available on Ebay.
Do you use the waterproof or the regular? Thanks. |

Hi Debster,
I use the regular- I don't really like waterproof mascaras as I have a hard time getting them off!
I went to my local shopper's drug mart last night and they had one tube in black left- so I snatched it up.
I've been buying a tube anywhere i see it (even if I haven't run out). Usually there are only 1 or 2 in the black and lots in the black brown remaining. I've only been able to get my hands on the "blackest black" once!
Hope this works for you as well as it did for me. Also remember, that for me I found that too much mascara came out on to the brush, so you may have to wipe some off before you use it.
Good luck!

Thanks. I think I'll get the regular. I agree with what you said about waterproof mascaras. I'll check out Shopper's tomorrow. |
