I have been using this mascara for almost two years now and have never been disappointed. As you can see in the picture, it holds the lashes so nicely! Would you believe me if I said it stayed on for 24 hours here? It has survived a school day from 6 AM to 3 PM, also working at a restaurant from 3 PM to 9:30 PM, PLUS I slept with it on! This is not the first time it has held up so well (the lower lashes have a different mascara, which is why it smudges at night). Truly the best mascara in the whole world, and it’s so cheap!!!🙈💕
