Maybelline present a super-sized mascara that promises to exceed your expectations! Let’s see what it can do…
Type of Mascara: Lengthening
Colours Available: Very Black, Soft Black 7 Brownish Black
Price Range: Cheap
Product Claims:
This mascara can create beautifully tamed lashes with length beyond belief. The Discipline gel uncrosses unruly lashes while the ultra-black top coat visibly lengthens lashes up to 85%.
My Experience:
This has got to be Maybelline’s most impactive mascara! It screams of glamour and excess, and could be compared to luxury brand Diorshow mascara. The first coat cleaned and separated my lashes ready to be veiled in the delectable black lacquer. I absolutely loved the results, and plan to recreate it in the future! I would save this mascara for big nights out but if you have a darker complexion or just love more impactive results then it could be a daily fix!
Overall Rating: Excellent
Price: $7.59 at drugstore.com
Have you tried this mascara? Do you like to results like this for every day wear or only for nights out?

This mascara from Maybelline promises results that will send you round the bend with excitement! We put this curved brush mascara to the test to see what it could accomplish…
Type of Mascara: Volumising
Colours Available: Very Black & Brownish Brown
Price Range: Cheap
Product Claims:
This mascara delivers up to 3 x the volume instantly for a dramatic lash look. The curved Anti-Clump brush and volume building express formula quickly thicken lashes without clumps.
My Experience:
I was impressed with the results I got with this product. The curved brush allowed for a faster application and it also lifted my lashes making my eyes look more open. Lashes were nicely thickened without looking too caked. I think this is a good mascara for daytime wear as it injects some life without any overkill.
Overall Rating: Good

Maybelline claim this mascara is a high-flyer and will take your lashes to new heights. Seatbelts fastened and let’s check it out…
Type of Mascara: Waterproof, Curling & Lengthening
Colours Available: Very Black & Blackish Brown
Price Range: Cheap
Product Claims:
This lengthening and curling waterproof mascara sets lashes to a daring 30 degrees curve without clumps.
My Experience:
This mascara is very similar to the non-waterproof version. It creates a voluptuous curve and some added length. The waterproof formula is a lighter consistency and allows me to achieve better separation than the orginal, although it’s still far from perfect. Even after a swim, this mascara stays were it’s supposed to and maintained about 80% of the curl. I think if you are looking for affordable curls, then this is a good buy. However if separation is top of your list, there are better mascaras out there.
Overall Rating: Good
Price: $6.29 at drugstore.com
I tried the very black shade. Have you tried the brownish black? Did you like it?

Maybelline claim this mascara’s name speaks volumes about what it can do! We were all ears…and lashes! Let’s check the verdict…
Type of Mascara: Volumising
Colours Available: Glam Black, Glam Brown, Classic Black & Classic Brown
Price Range: Cheap
Product Claims:
This mascara creates 9x the volume instantly. It’s Megabrush + Collagen formula plump lashes one by one.
My Experience:
This mascara creates lashings of volume! The huge rubber brush seems to inject lashes with a dose of volumising magic. Unfortunately there are some less desirable results too – clumping. From the first coat, it’s a bit clumpy and with a second application I was hunting for my comb. However there is no doubt about it, this mascara creates unrivalled volume and doubles with each application. I would imagine volume-lovers could get past the clumps for results like that but I prefer more of an all-round good mascara.
Overall Rating: Average
Price: $5.99 at drugstore.com
Are you willing to put up with clumping for the sake of volume, length or curl?

Maybelline’s Unstoppable Mascara claims it can break all records with its long lasting action! Find out what happened when put it to the test…
Type of Mascara: Lengthening
Colours Available: Very Black & Brownish Black
Price Range: Cheap
Product Claims:
This 100% smudge-proof full length mascara lengthens up to 50%. It resists smudging and raccoon eyes for up to 12 hours.
My Experience:
I loathe those moments when I realize I been walking around looking like a raccoon! Thanks to Maybelline it doesn’t need to happen ever again! I was surprised to find that this mascara really didn’t stray or smudge despite my efforts to test its staying power! Its lengthening ability seems limited though, which is a shame as it’s obviously a great development in mascara formula. A good product but it lacks ambition. I will be keeping an eye out for an updated version of this that can do more.
Overall Rating: Average
Price: $5.89 at amazon.com
Would you buy this mascara just for it’s smudge-proof ability?

Maybelline claim this mascara boosts the levels of volume beyond borders! Check out what we found when we tested it…
Type of Mascara: Thickening
Colours Available: Very Black
Price Range: Cheap
Product Claims:
This mascara creates 7x the volume instantly. The Turbo Boost formula and Anti-Clump brush quickly thickens lashes.
My Experience:
I think this is another great volumising mascara from Maybelline! It applies smooth and clump-free, separating lashes nicely as it coated them. After the first coat there was a huge increase in volume and my lashes looked noticeably thicker. A second coat magnified the effect further! This mascara does what it sets out to do – create instant volume, and lots of it!
Overall Rating: Excellent
Price: $7.79 at drugstore.com
I was pleased to get such amazing results at an affordable price. Were you impressed with this mascara?
