Review: Bold lashes without the clumps — my go-to drugstore mascara! - I’ve tried a ton of mascaras — from high-end brands to cheap drugstore ones — and I always end up coming back to Maybelline Volum’ Express. It’s affordable, consistent, and gives my lashes that bold, lifted look without the crunchy or clumpy texture. Application: The brush is perfectly shaped — it separates my lashes while adding noticeable volume right from the first coat. I usually do two coats, and that’s plenty for a full, fluttery effect. It grabs even the little corner lashes without smudging onto my eyelid (a major plus if you’re in a rush like me). Formula: It’s a great balance — not too wet, not too dry. It dries fast enough that it doesn’t transfer under my eyes, but still gives me enough time to layer before it sets. My lashes stay soft and flexible all day — no flaking, no spider-lash look. Wear time: It easily lasts my entire workday without smearing, even when it’s humid or I’m running around. I’ve accidentally fallen asleep in it (oops 😅) and still woke up with lashes that looked surprisingly good. Removal: Comes off easily with my regular micellar water — no scrubbing or losing lashes in the process. The waterproof version needs a little more effort, but it holds up beautifully for long days or hot weather. Value: For the price, it performs like something triple the cost. One tube lasts me a good few months with no drying out, and the formula stays consistent from start to finish. Bottom line: If you want big, bold lashes without the clumps or high price tag, this is it. It’s a drugstore classic for a reason — dependable, buildable, and makes your lashes look amazing with minimal effort. I’ll keep repurchasing this one!
Review: Great mascara - This is a great mascara. It gives volume and awesome length. Would definitely buy this again!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: why was this mascara dried up and clotted upon receipt**
A: Mine wasn't dried up or clotted when I bought it. Maybe you got a bad tube. If you add a few eye drops and swirl the brush around this should help with the dryness! Avoid eye drops that are for redness though. Hope this helps!

**Q: Does this smudge? I must have oily skin because almost all mascaras smudge under my eyes, even waterproof ones.**
A: I guess a little bit. I was using Chanel mascara and that smudges really bad. I like Maybelline the best of all the mascaras I’ve used.

**Q: Does it really wash off?  one of the reasons i seldom wear make-up is i hate how difficult it is to get it off at the end of the day.  thanks.**
A: Yes, it washes off with some facial cleansers. You have to be sure not to buy the water proof kind.  But there are better mascaras than this one.... try one of the washable cover girl options

**Q: it is a waterproof?**
A: No it is not.
