essence | I Love Extreme Crazy Volume Waterproof Mascara | Volumizing & Longlasting for Dramatic Lashes | Vegan & Cruelty Free | Free From Parabens, Alcohol, & Microplastic Particles

I love this mascara I have been buying it off Amazon for years. It works, its inexpensive, the mascara is flexable, doesnt flake and isnt stiff. Can reapply without crazy clumps. Its the best I rave about this brand while other spend half a paycheck on theres. Im always scared they'll discontinue so I try to always buy more than one!!

I haven't tried essence mascara before but let me tell you I was left FLABBERGASTED from how good this product in specific is. it literally gave my lashes extra length and volume and made them look like falsies😼

I love this. I’m so surprised. I have only used high end mascaras. I decided to try this and was shocked at how well it worked. It works as good as the $30 one I’ve purchased countless times. It makes lashes thick and long without any clumping.

The mascara delivers strong volume and gives lashes a bold, noticeable look. It goes on smoothly and does not flake during the day, which is impressive for something in this price range. The only drawback is that it can clump if you apply too many layers. Overall, it performs very well and feels like a solid value.

I usually use Maybe line sky high in blue but it’s pricey so I decided to try this one in blue and it is absolutely comparable to sky high and it’s even better if you use the essence brand primer also. I will purchase again

I've been meaning to write a 5 star review for this mascara for some time now, because this mascara WAS perfect. I'm VERY picky with my mascara and have tried almost everything on the market. For many years I used Le Volume and this is the first and only mascara that ever came close to providing the volume and (importantly) separation of my lashes. I discovered this mascara about a year ago through online searches for dupes and knew when I saw the wand that this might be the one. Sure enough it was perfect and gave me the same results for a fraction of the price. I bought MANY more as gifts for others and have recommended it to countless others. Then, earlier this year, essence inexplicably changed the wand. It is no longer sturdy and is very flexible/bendy. Now, application is much messier, requiring more stability on my part. Most importantly, it doesn't separate lashes AT ALL because there's no grip on the wand since it bends. Worst of all, when they changed the wand they also tweaked the tube itself, so the old wand cannot screw in to the new mascara tube. It looks almost identical, but the old wand will not screw on to the new tube. So now, I have to keep one new tube with the mascara to apply (looks like a sloppy toddler did it with this new wand), and one old tube with the wand that actually works (to actually make the lashes look good). I'm sure it's not great to keep using this old wand for months on end, but what's a girl to do? That was the functional part of this item that made me love it, and now they've basically ruined it. WHY did you do this essence?! Please give us the old stiff wand back, or make a new mascara with the old wand, or sell the old wand stand-alone with a cap that screws in to the new package. Please I'm literally begging to go back to the perfect product you had.

The quality is amazing for the price. Initially I was interested in a top make up brand but did not want to spend the money. I’m so glad I decided to try this one first, do not sleep on this blue mascara. It does not smudge, nor is it clumpy and the applicator glides on smoothly. I definitely recommend this item.

I love this mascara! It works better than expensive brands I have tried. It lengthens my lashes nicely and does not flake. It's my new go to mascara.
