I picked this up a few weeks ago from Superdrug as I had just finished my 'They're Real' mascara. Truth be told, I hadn't used any Maybelline mascaras before but I was recommended this, on many occasions, so I decided to replace my Benefit one with it.
The wand has 'dent' in it (this is where I fail to explain things technically) which allows the applicator to be more flexible. I found that this feature gave me fuller lashes as I could apply the mascara at any angle. The brush itself is labelled as 'Patented Spoon Curler Brush' by Maybelline. It claims to separate lashes without clumping but in my experience, it makes my lashes stick together more. This could be due to how I apply it but I have read some other reviews which agree with my point.
I bought this in the non-waterproof formula which I regret now, after taking it on holiday and it smudging all over my face in the humidity. However, I have noticed that when I apply this, the mascara ends up smudging onto my eye lids - the reason for this being that the brush is quite large.
Overall, with everything being considered, I like this mascara as it gives me lots of volume but I probably would't repurchase it. Since trying this, I have bought that 'Lash Sensational' one from Maybelline which I prefer as it doesn't smudge as much and doesn't clump together my lashes.
What is your favourite drugstore mascara?

loved your blog! I own the waterproof flasies and if I'm completely honest, after the first couple of applications(which were great) it became very dry. Also agree with you that I wont be repurchasing x
