The model they use has long lashes without mascara.

I can achieve the same spider lashes with Mally in about three coats. They wrap around my lids and ruin my shadow , dot my eyebrows if I'm not careful. I use Laura Gellers tight line for the bottom lashes because the brush fits under the lashes and it is less dense ,otherwise I couldn't use mascara on bottom lashes at all. And I'm not anything like the model. I love Mallys mascara because if I'm careful to scrape the brush so it's not so loaded one coat does the work of several coats of anybody else's mascara- fast, thick , lengthening mascara I love. And the best part is that they don't turn into spikes and needles , but stay soft and pliable all day.

While she has some duds, who doesn't , Mally still produces the best quality cosmetics. And look- everybody's selling out, morally and literally! Philosophy, Bare Essentuals, Tarte, who's next? How can you not have Amazing Grace. I hate the stuff, always have, but I still want it there - you know? So many people loved it so. Can we please support the survivors? like Nick and Tova (hate her perfumes too but still want those who love them to be able to have them and I love listening to her praise herself. )I actually saw the lady who used to dig her nails into wood to advertise her nail oil today. I thought she was a goner too.

If you are interested in real perfume from pure florals to bouquets, soft citrus to orientals to fresh greens, and matching lotions and washes, the best rice powder (no talc) you've ever used, real milled French soap, try La Bouquetier. The perfumer still makes his products in the French tradition, from real essential oils he has harvested. The its of ingredients of the lotion reads like a super rich facial moisturizer. And he takes personal interest in his clients. Once available only in the most exclusive boutiques he now sells online.

I hate that dark clumpy overdone look and especially on people with blonde hair. It is not attractive at all IMO.

So many times that happens - women apply too much makeup and they end up looking less attractive and more freakish.

Prescriptives used to have the most popular mascara on QVC. The promoter is the first person to explain that the mascara flecks you wipe off all day are really pieces of lashes, broken off by the hard sometimes alcohol containing mascara you're using. If you use sound judgement and apply an appropriate amount of Mally's mascara, you'll do your lashes a great favor by keeping them pliable, whole, and your look a favor by adding color and girth to your lashes. Can we be less catty and help one another please? There might be a perfect mascara for the person who needs a particular formulation but how will they ever find one if they turn away from BB because of all the nastiness? By the way Prescriptives is another lost source, anyone know how to get their products? Someone recommended their deep eye primer but I cant find it. Does anyone else, besides LANCOME make one? IT is too light, can't find the dark Urban Decay, Laura geller cracks and clumps on my daughter's lids making the eczema she's trying to hide look much worse (and I'm not about to tell her about it!, I'm the Mother!) Lorac's turns silver grey. Help anyone?

I agree with the OP! When Mally says the mascara doesn't make lashes look like tarantula's I have to laugh. That's exactly what they look like!

I don't know the name of the Mally mascara, but I happened to flip through the channel while a model was showing the results of a Mally mascara -- and I almost screamed and reached for the nearest bug-swatter! What the heck is attractive about eyelashes that look like a hairy tarantula spreading its spidery legs in all directions around someone's eye? That was the most grotesquely exaggerated makeup effect I've ever seen! It would be fine for the stage or Halloween; I can't imagine anyone taking those grossly overdone lashes through a normal day.

I don't know if the demonstrated look is what you really get when you use this product.......but I thought it was just AWFUL. A definite "never buy" for me.

You "almost screamed" when you saw a mascara? Seriously?

Maybe you should get your eyes examined. {#emotions_dlg.unsure}

The bold part is too funny and too true. I find that most mascaras that are marketed give that same scary and creepy look. It just makes me not buy mascaras anymore. I get it that most women want length, but I really wish more companies would formulate a natural mascara formula that focused on volume.

Actually Mally's volumizing mascara is very good. I have tried many mascaras and this one is my favorite.

same here, I hate those spidery looking lashes. I prefer a more natural look but I have such sparse lashes(are long enough, just sparse) so need a little help with volume while still looking natural and like myself. I have tried so many that claim this and the Mally volumizing mascara is the only one that works for me. I went on AD for this but it is also in one of her latest TSV, one that had her new liquid foundation, one in a compact but is liquid,( love it). I am also on AD for this TSV kit, love everything in it, first kit ever I can say that for.

So, love the Mally volumizing mascara better than any I have ever tried and believe me, have tried a lot, a whole lot.
