I bought this mascara after seeing this Drew Berrymore ads on a magazine. Her thick and dark eyelashes really sold me that this mascara will makeover my thin and short lashes. While the mascara did improve my lashes somewhat, I didn't get the the thick and long lashes that this ads projected in my brain. I didn't find this mascara an exceptional product compared to the others I used before and I had better mascaras than this. It's not a bad product other than it's rather dry and one tube didn't provide as many applications as some other brands. It's an okay mascara in terms of what it did to my lashes. I do like the design of the tube and applicator because it gives me a much steadier hold. It's also a pretty tube. Covergirl Lashblast Luxe Mascara Black Platinum $7.77 Free Shipping
