Maybelline cliams that Maybelline Volum Express – the Mega Plush Hydrofuge Mascara is a volumizing mascara with “massive supple volume”. It is Maybelline’s first ever mascara with “gel-mousse” formula  and supposed to be voulmizing without the brittle hair spray affect. Lashes are left soft and plush. Well I don’t agree with it although it’s a great product (for 6$) to separate your lashes and give a good definition.

It has a flexi and a convex shaped brush which doesn’t make any sense. The bristles are longer and thicker in the middle and shorter and tapered on the ends. The wand bends unexpectedly spreading the mascara every time I try to put pressure on the band to wiggle the mascara through my lashes.

It has a gel based wet formula so it is thinner than other mascaras. The product gives a natural volume and length. It is impossible to get volumized lashes with this light weight gel formula.It holds the curls like it says. It doesn’t clump. It comes off really well even though it is waterproof. I alawys had a problem of racoon eyes in the morning but not with this one.

It is good for lengthening. It gives volume but not as much as this. If you are looking for something natural with separation and soft lashes this is the right product for you..just don’t expect any volume. I like this mascara but I am not a big fan. There are better Maybelline mascaras around..
