I LOVE THIS STUFF!! even though i do have long lashes, they're kinda...blah... totally skinny. This mascara makes them FAT and sexy, and it lasts forever! yes, it is a little bit expensive, but it's absolutely worth it. I like to top it with Tony and Tina's mascara in purple. Beware, though, it's not waterproof, and if you just genty scracht your eye, you risk looking like Britney Spears in her now "kevin" stage. ;)

I have naturally long thick eyelashes, and finding a mascara that didn't leave me with raccoon eyes was always a difficult task... I know, I know, listen to the girl with long eyelashes complain, but SERIOUSLY this stuff is amazing! my roommate tried it too, and now she's hooked. It actually accents your lashes... NOT the fact that you are wearing mascara, something all girls can appreciate.

I don't wear makeup often but I am a performing bellydancer so when I do my eye makeup it needs to be dramatic. The badgal lash is perfect for making my lashes stand out. It has not flaked or smudged yet, and is not clumpy or sticky either. With mascara you get what you pay for and the price is worth it for this!

I'm a huge addict of beautiful, fat and long lashes that make you look like a sexpot without looking nasty or clumpy. I often get asked about what kind of mascara I use (more about that in a minute). Well, I picked this up due to all the hype, of course. And I'd have to say that it's really not worth it. It works for just your plain ol' mascara, but it was so boring and undramatic. It made me sad. I felt bad for it just sitting in my drawer. I've gone through millions of mascaras, just for fun, and by far, the best one I've ever used for super mega volume and length is L'Oreal Voluminous mascara. It's like 7 bucks at the drug store and it's the most awesome thing ever. I would die without it. The original (in the gray tube) works best. A lot of high end products are worth it (believe me, I know) but Benefit BadGal just sucks when it comes down to it. It just doesn't measure up. Bummer.

*UPDATE (02/2008): I am now in love with Too Faced Lash Injection . . . another fabulous mascara for the dramatic lashes described above!

A salesperson at Sephora recommended this mascara to me- and I have to say- I had problems with it smudging- MAJOR RACCOON EYES- and it started clumping only a couple of weeks after I bought it. I ended up throwing this away and going back to CVS to buy a cheaper brand.

I wanted this really bad because of all the magazine reviews, and my friend had it and she said it was great. But it's not. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I mean, the lashes look great, but I wore it to a marching band competition and it was under my eyes in just a couple hours. Eww. Next time I'm trying revlon or something cheaper.

This mascara does build dramatic length, *almost* like false lashes. It doesn't wear well over time though. It might be great for a (not-too-long) night out. I love trying mascaras, but always come back to my favorite, ALMAY One Coat.

This mascara does give you great looking long, thick, black lashes, and very flirty looking eyes. It doesn't have as much of a problem with clumping as say, a drugstore mascara (like Maybellene), but I still go over my lashes post-application with a toothbruth anyway. The only drawback of this mascara is that it flakes a little onto your under eyes if you wear it for 8 hours straight with no touch up. It flakes even if you're only wearing it on your top lashes and especially if you've go it on the bottom lashes or your doing anything that gets you sweaty (it's not waterproof). But this mascara is great looking for a couple of hours--use it for a date!

Like a previous poster said, this works fine if you just want regular mascara. But for me, this didn't do anything better than drugstore brands, and actually I liked it less than a lot of brands I've tried like Loreal and Maybelline. So for me this was a big waste of money!

I had wanted to try this mascara forever. I finally paid full price for it at Spehora. I was not impressed. There was a lot of excess mascara on the wand. My lashes did not seem that much longer than before and the worst part it gave me racoon eyes. I had to keep wiping up mascara from under my eyes. I used this tube of mascara 10 times at most and it went bad. Save your money buy Loreal instead.
