Product Review: Maybelline Great Lash
I was gifted with long eyelashes, which isn’t as lovely as it sounds, because, for one thing, I can either wear mascara or sunglasses, but not both. Sadly, I also have the kind of skin that most make-up melts from fairly quickly, which means when I choose to wear mascara, I have raccoon eyes by noon. No, really.
This is why I’m a fan of Maybelline’s Great Lash Mascara, and why I especially love that it comes in CLEAR. Clear mascara thickens without coloring, merely enhancing the lashes you already have. (I’m guessing it doesn’t work all that well for natural blonds, but for the rest of us…). Since it’s also a Maybelline product, it doesn’t have an overly chemical smell, and it comes in three shades of black, two of brown, and blue, as well as the clear I love.
It’s also washable, which means you can splash a bit of water on your face, and not end up looking like you were out all night, but it comes off easily with any gentle makeup remover. Additionally, it’s hypoallergenic, and safe to wear with contact lenses.
Maybelline says this product is their most popular mascara. I don’t doubt this. I mean, I buy it, and I’m an Aveda girl.
You can buy this product at almost any grocery store, drug store, or wherever makeup is sold.

Yes, this one is definitely a classic - good quality, and cheap, too.
And now you’ve reminded me that I am due for a fresh tube!
