New York Lash Discovery Mini-Brush Waterproof Mascara, Very Black, 0.16 fl. oz.

I wear contacts. I swim. I sweat. I wear greasy/oily sunscreens. My lashes have blonde tips. I feel absolutely feel naked without mascara. However, my lifestyle is not compatible with it. This is one of the most truly waterproof mascaras on the market. Absolutely most comfortable with contacts. I've tried them all. It's also fairly easy to remove with micellar water. Is it the most dramatic? Not entirely. But it's a lot more dramatic than you'd expect. It's amazing with curled lashes. The formula seems to hold the curl well, and doesn't weigh the lashes down. Zero clumping. The brush really does help get every single lash. The overall effect is a very bright, wide eye sort of lash. Very natural looking.... and I don't mean natural as in "doesn't do anything" but more like... doesn't look overly made up. It's fantastic for an everyday look, especially if you need long wearing. It's the best for lower lashes, and sometimes when I use a more intense mascara on my upper lashes, I still use this on the lower lashes. It's truly a uniquely amazing mascara.

Good product, like the mini brush.

Because of watery eyes due to allergies and other problems, I can mostly use only waterproof mascara so I don't look like a raccoon. The Maybelline New York Lash Discovery Mascara has a very small brush with short bristles. This might not be for everyone, but compared to all the other mascaras I own, I find that it doesn't allow the lashes to clump up as easily as other brushes do. I wiggle the brush from the root of my lashes upward to the ends. While I do this also with other types of mascara and brushes, I find that the smaller the brush, the less or no clumps will happen and also less smudge due to an excess of product. I had bought this mascara a longer time ago but lost it and then forgot which type it was, since nowadays there are so many that it can be difficult to remember exactly what one looks like. I am using this mascara daily and it has held up very well. My lashes tend to stick together in some areas but with the small brush I can detangle them or use an additional tool if necessary. When I am done with my lashes, I gently run the mascara brush over my eyebrows to keep them in place. With little product left on the brush, this looks natural and is very helpful. Like all waterproof makeup, this mascara doesn't just wash away, which would defy the purpose of being waterproof - but it comes off a lot better than other items where the product is thicker, to begin with. My lashes look nicely darkened and accentuated and appear very natural unless I use several coats of product to make it thicker. No spiderleg-lashes, which I hate. I am quite happy with this mascara and might make it my staple for each and every day.

I have short, straight Asian lashes and this currently is my go-to for the following reasons: 1. It does not clump. The thinner wand and the shorter bristles make this mascara great for lengthening your lashes, giving you the perfect eye-popping effect that still looks natural and clean. 2. It retains your curl pretty well for how easy it is to wash off. Of all the waterproof mascaras I’ve tried, this is one of the easier ones to wash off (you still need to use an oil-based cleanser/makeup remover). However, I generally find that the easier it is to wash off, the less lifted/curled your lashes will stay. This is still somewhat true for this mascara, but you could say the correlation is not as prominent. The curl falls to a small degree, and in my opinion, my lashes still look very lifted as you can see in the picture, even after the lashes settle. 3. It doesn’t smudge much, if at all. Just try to keep the mascara on your lashes and not your skin when you’re applying. Overall, highly recommend!

I know a lot of people love mascaras that are bold and dramatic, that make their lashes super dark and thick. For me though, I prefer a more natural look, and this mascara is the best I've found for that purpose. :) My favorite thing about it is the brush- it's a small brush that makes it so easy to get all of my lashes without smudging anywhere on my eyelid or under my eye. I use just one coat and it gets the job done perfectly! My lashes aren't very thick but do have a natural curl to them, and this mascara doesn't drag them down or make them droop. It does just enough to darken them and lengthen them a bit. I never have problems with clumping or with it drying up. One tube will usually last me about 5ish months, and I use it nearly everyday. It does tend to smudge a little bit when I apply to my lower lashes, but I do have allergy issues and watery eyes, which is probably the issue with that. Otherwise, I've been able to cry without it coming off, and it comes off easily with makeup remover at night. If you're looking for a simple, everyday mascara, I'd definitely recommend this one!

The wand is nice but there is absolutely no mascara in the container. The package was totally sealed but all it is a dry brush. I am totally disappointed. I would return it but at the price point it's not worth the trip to ship it. As long as Maybelline has been around, they should be ashamed to allow Amazon to sell this trash, could've gotten better at the Dollar Tree.

I like this mascara because the brush is thin. It works good for bottom lashes. But there is very little product in the tube. It won't last very long. I am going to have to find another small brush with more mascara in the tube. Will not buy this again

About me: I have straight, short, stubborn lashes that refuse to stay curled no matter how many times I curl them. I usually wear glasses; contact lenses are only for special occasions/going out. Normally if I wore mascara while wearing glasses, my lashes would start drooping after 15 minutes and start brushing against my glasses, leaving streaks (yuck). I usually do not wear waterproof formulas because I always found them so difficult to remove. I have also tried the non-waterproof version of Maybelline New York Lash Discovery Mascara, which I found decent. Expectations: I was looking for an everyday, no-makeup-look mascara. I was not looking for a mascara that would give me intense volume or super lengthening. I've tried everything from high-end to drugstore mascaras and I've never found one that I loved so I didn't have high hopes for this one. My thoughts: I love this mascara. Absolutely LOVE. I adore the brush because it's so small and gets every little lash. It defines every single lash and keeps them curled! The mascara kept my lashes curled the entire day and gave me the effect I wanted, which was a subtly enhancing look. It's quite buildable, did not flake, or clump (granted, I wiped the wand a million times before applying the mascara). I could even use it on my lower lashes. Even at the end of the day, my lashes looked lovely. It's fairly waterproof but still easy to remove. Get this if: you want an inexpensive mascara that defines your lashes and keeps them curled. Do not get this if: you want lashes that go BAM! If you're looking for drama, you won't get it from this mascara.

La brocha es muy fina. Decían que podías incluso bucear sin que se moviese, pero no se mantiene. Aunque con el agua no se te llena el ojo de negro como con otras máscaras de pestañas, cuando sales de estar un rato en el agua no queda nada de esta, es como si no te la hubieses aplicado.

I have been using this product for years because of the wand, which captures all of the lashes, and never looks gloppy. The waterproof blend is excellent. I don't know why it isn't sold in Canada - I buy it whenever I cross the border, but with the borders currently closed, I was thrilled to find in on amazon (used to be sold here a few years ago).

Mi pestañas son muy pequeñas, en mi experiencia personal, el cepillo realmente es pequeño puedo manejarlo con facilidad y no chocar con el párpado, me encantó, levanto mis pestañas, yo sí lo volvería a comprar 😻

This is a great product for natural “no clump” eyelashes. Been a user for nearly 30 years!

nice product
