Pigletsmom, how long have you had  your Lash Paradise and how hard is it to remove water proof mascara.  I haven't used any wp mascara since the 80s.  What do you use to remove it?

---

@monicakm I've had it a few weeks. I use Albolene to remove it. I've been using that forever. It comes off fairly easily with that. Slather it on and tissue it off.  I'm outdoors a lot so I really need the staying power which of course means it's a little tougher to get off.

Im also a fan of Maybelline Full N Soft. I saw that mentioned here a while back and I was really impressed with it.

I just picked one up yesterday, but have not opened it as I have an Essence mascara I'm using. I love the Essence and will repurchase it, but wanted to try this one.

@wvumountiefan  Which Essence mascara do you like?  I was at the store today, and they had about 10 different kinds, and all of them said they were volumizing.  I couldn't figure out which one to get, so I said eff it and walked away.

But it was great while it lasted!  First used it (and raved about it here) on June 17th but the Paradise honeymoon is sadly over.  What went wrong?  It got very clumpy.  It's probably still a good mascara but for MY lash needs, it's not working like it did at first.  Maybe clumpiness is an inherent property with volume mascaras.  I've always been more into lengthening.  Lash Paradise did both GREAT, at first.

@monicakm, oh no, I just bought this!

@monicakm Me too! Two of them.

For those interested, I was in a CVS today and they now have the Lash Paradise on an end cap. $8.99  sale -- there is a $3 off coupon for any Voluminous Mascara in the Sunday circulars.

I bought this mascara after reading some good things about it. I have to say I am highly disappointed. I'm not crazy about the brush, I find the formula kind of dry, and I'm not getting much length and fullness out of it. Not worth the money and will not be purchasing it again.

I agree 100% with @Jordan2. I had the same experience and threw it away after a few weeks.

As I stated above, I bought Lash Paradise back in July.  It was too dry and flaked all over my face and little pieces kept getting in my eyes.  Tossed it after a couple weeks.

I use this, but only in the waterproof formula. For me it was a better mascara than in the regular version.
