After trying out the Benefit Roller lash sample a couple months back, I recall at the end of my blog post here commenting on how a waterproof formulation would make it the perfect mascara for me so this mascara seems to be the one!
Sorry that I didnt take a picture of the actual wand itself but I would say that it resembles the Roller Lash alot so I'm sure if you google it, alot of images would pop up. I actually didn't get a chance to picture it because of how quickly I used it up and also for reasons that I'm going to talk about later in this post.
I always have positive experience with Maybelline mascaras but I found that this really in my favourite one by far compared with the falsies and rocket volum mascara. Firstly, the wand is very unique and I found that it grabbed my tiny lashes amazingly well. Not only is does it lengthen my lashes, but I found that it held my curls alot longer. The formulation is definitley the most waterproof i've ever tried as it was literally impossible to remove even after using an oil based remover which I'm not too sure whether is a pro or a con. After a long day at work, I feel that this mascara is a hassle to take off and even in the morning, I can see residue of this mascara around my eyes. Really a bulletproof product and ideal for people who has a tendency for products smudging on them.
Despite of all the goodness in this mascara, one thing that I was really dissapointed was the packaging and the poor product distribution. I found that once you pull the mascara wand out, too much of the product is on the wand to the extent that you can see blobs of the mascara on the wand so I had to wipe away excess during each use. The mascara soon became very messy after several use with the accumulation of excess product around the mascara opening which contributes to the fact that the mascara dried up and finished very quickly.
All in all, this is a wonderful mascara and I am already thinking of repurchasing it but I feel that the packaging is the only thing I would complain about as its too messy for my liking and definitley wouldn't look nice in my makeup bag. Great for girls out there with stubborn straight lashes that refuse to hold their curl throughout the day!
Have you tried this mascara?

If you like Maybelline's mascara line you will probably like L'oreal's too! Miss Manga is waterproof as well and makes your eyelashes twice as long <3

All of maybellines products are amazzing. By far their mascaras and lipbalms are my favorite. But it's really too bad about the deal breaker, the wand.

I really love Lash Sensational - my favourite drugstore mascara! I did find the waterproof version clumpier but I'm already using it lots this summer with my hay fever! xx

I haven't tried the waterproof version yet but quite liked the original one. It wasn't my all time favourite as I did find the formula a bit too wet & like you said too much product comes out then, but for the price it's not bad x

Lovely post! :) I've never actually tried a Maybelline mascara. God knows why not, as I'm forever splurging on their 3 for 2 offers in Boots ha!xx

I use the non waterproof version, but it still stays on really really well. It's definitely my fave mascara!

I've been loving this mascara. When I curl my lashes this mascara seems to really hold the curl in place.

Gah, gotta hate it when the formula is blobby and clumpy. But the actual mascara sounds amazing, I am so convinced I need it now haha! Literally everyoneee has been raving about it.
