This mascara is amazing! i've been using it for a while now and I am still in love with it! It never smudges off or flakes off. It only takes a coat or two! It makes your lashes full and glossy. When you wash it off, all you have to do is rub your eyes with water and it comes off in little tubes, not leaving any black smudges under your eyes! This products is more than worth the price tag!!
