Most Helpful Positive Review I really like this product I use it about every day, *whispers* I sleep in it *whispers* it's easy to wash off, doesn't last when slept on ( but you should wash it off) doesn't flake, if wet, does run. Great for the price for sure!
Most Helpful Critical Review Not as good as the more expensive brands I usually wear Tarte or Benefit mascara. I've tried many different kinds before so I have a good idea of what I like and what I do not like. I had received this as a gift. After reading the reviews, since I had never heard of this brand before, I was hopeful it would be just as good as the more expensive brands that I'm used to. Boy, was I wrong. I had always wondered if I should settle for drugstore mascaras to save $ since that's all I used to wear back in the day. This smudged on my eyelids so bad and I was careful when applying. Also, didn't care for the brush I found it too bulky. It seemed really hard to build up; I really had to wiggle the brush back and forth to feel like it was sticking to my lashes. I had to apply like 20 layers. It ended up spider-leggy and some flakes fell under my eye during wear. I like a mascara that lifts my lashes this did not at all it just seemed to make them stand straight out. Maybe curling them first would fix this issue but I have found mascaras that have the lifting effect so I'll stick with those to save time. Also, it burned my eyes after awhile. I noticed it was not waterproof and that is what I need especially since I wear contacts all of the time. Personally, it's worth it to me to splurge on the more pricey mascaras. I wish I had pictures to compare because the difference (at least for my lashes) is HUGE! Higher end mascaras > cheap mascara.

Disappointed 3
Swasher from CA
Based on the reviews I had high hopes for this mascara. Very disappointed. Mascara flakes as I'm putting it on my lashes and it makes my lashes clumpy. The only pro is the price. I won't buy again.
Lash Princess Waterproof mascara 5
CJ from Huntingtown, MD
Just bought in January 2021. Use product daily. Without fail it does not drip and smear under my eyes. Big test will be in the Summer when water activities start. So far product is great!
GREAT DUPE! 5
joeyjoe from Tucson
amazing dupe for the Tarte Lights Camera Lashes!
Great mascara 5
K from Massachusetts
Not too heavy or clumpy, as length and darkens perfectly. Buildable and I love the wand!
THE BEST MASCARA I'VE EVER USED 5
ash from Semmes, AL
this mascara makes my lashes look the best they've ever had. i've tried at least 5 more more different mascaras and this is the best one i've used by far. 10/10 recommend!
Actually one of the best I've ever used 5
Calliope Jane from SC
I honestly find mascaras to be one of those things you don't have to go high end on to get a great result. I've dabbled on the upper end of the mascara price point and have been disappointed every time. I received this mascara as part of a gift. I cannot believe how outstanding it is. It takes a lot to compare to my Full & Soft but this definitely does!!
Incredible! 5
Sam from Ft. Worth, TX
This is one of the best mascaras I've used and I've used a lot.. anything from hourglass to benefit to drugstore, I think this is my new favorite!
I would buy this again 5
Grace from pa
I LOVED this product, the mascara gives quick, volume and length with only one coat. The only downside is that I've found that it will tend to smear on my eyelid directly after applying, much more so than my previous mascara.
Get it! 5
Maren from World
I didn't even need to curl my eyelashes! It so so amazing and the wand was a little weird at first but it is awesome! My eye lashes didn't clump together they filled in nicely.
You have to have !! 5
Av from Michigan
I love this mascara I tried the false lashes in the same brand and decided to try this one and I was VERY pleased!! Love love love!
So Good! 5
demmeg from Syracuse
This is a great maacara for the price point! I'd say it outperforms much more expensive mascaras, too. It goes on with very little clumping and makes my lashes look amazing.
My favorite Essence mascara 5
Isela from LV
I have 6 of the Essence mascaras. Not only is the price amazing. But the product itself is great. I have several to pick from depending on the day and the look I'm going for. But this brush is the best one that I have. 👌
There isn't anything I don't like about Essence Mascara! 5
SM from Houston Texas
I like all of their mascara wand options. You can find one to fit all of your mascara needs.
Clumpy 2
Brinabae from NM
This mascara is super clumpy but not in that cute thick eyelashes way. Even if you carefully apply one coat, all of your lashes will stick to each other and you'll end up looking like you only have one or two. The formula is also really heavy and my eyelashes don't stayed curled at all when I use this. I bought it thinking it would be a dupe for the benefit roller last due to the shape of the wand but it's not even close. Not a fan.
Surprisingly Good 4
Katie from STL
I wasn't expecting to like this very much but it's a great affordable option
Too clumpy 3
Ariel from NC
This mascara clumps on my lashes so much. If you have wild lashes this will only emphasize that. I wouldn't recommend this version of the Lash Princess
I will be purchasing again 5
Yaya from Eastvale CA
Great mascara for the price

Cat from NC

Glamorous 5
A Wolf from Maine
I'm usually not one for mascara, but I love this product. I feel so glamorous wearing it. This could easily become an everyday product.
I wanted to like it 1
Lace from Las Vegas
After hearing all the hype about this product, I thought that I would for sure like it... But I just don't. It didn't do anything for me. It added a touch of length but no volume. The product made the tips of my lashes look like there were little balls on it. It flaked and smudged. It just didn't work for me and was no where near what I got/get from my holy grail, the lash sensational by Maybelline.
LOVE LOVE LOVE 5
Gigi from California

Wonder product
Nothing special 3
Sarai from Ohio
Purchased this at the checkout counter at the suggestion of the cashier. It was on sale and she said it was their best selling mascara comparable to Better Than Sex. I've honestly tried every best selling mascara there is to make something with my lashes and am never impressed. (Better Than Sex didn't do much for me either) Although LANCÔME's Definicils came the closest to actually Wowing me. This didn't do much for my lashes and don't plan on purchasing again. The best affordable brand I've tried so far would be L'Oréal's Volumous Lash Paradise.
