Allure came out with their 2008 Reader's Choice Awards.The winner of the best drugstore mascara is... Maybelline Great Lash. I'm not sure why this mascara gets rated so highly in magazines and why it always gets these prestigious awards. I've tried it, and, well, it's a total piece of garbage. It clumps worse than anything I've ever tried, it's goopy, the bottle dries quickly, the wand is terrible, it doesn't curl. I could go on. Everytime I see a bottle of great lash, I am thrown back to the 80's.
I'm not trying to sound like a makeup snob, but I think the reason this is always rated best drugstore mascara is because the people who buy great lash have probably never tried anything good. You can't miss what you've never had, right?
Don't get me wrong - I wear drugstore mascara! Maybelline mascara, actually! Full and Soft, it's amazing. It is 100 times better than Great Lash. I have worn really nice expensive mascara before, and Full and Soft is just as good if not better. I just don't understand the fascination with Great Lash - Can someone fill me in?

I don't know why it gets so much hate, it works like a dream on me. Everyone always says my lashes look amazing when I wear it. I've had the same tube for over a year and it hasn't dried up or done anything funky either.
I have to agree with your opinions on this mascara...it did nothing for me at all! Diorshow still wins my mascara affections :)
Hey katrina, sorry for dissing your mascara! lol your lashes always do look amazing in all your pics - maybe you have guru applying skills? it looked terrible on me
