I hate the 2 part mascaras (Reply to this comment)

Even if they are here to stay, I hate the primers. I tried a mascara by Rimmel that had a comb. It was just one set of little tines, a tiny comb. Dreadful. I was going to ask for it to be put in the DB but it's not worth even writing about.

This one sounds like a desperate attempt to market something different. I think cosmetics companies are running out of good ideas.

I've been very tempted by this mascara - but thank you for letting me know not to bother. Wonder what they were thinking? Not worth it at that price!

Great review, Peggy :)

I don't think we even have a L'Oreal store here. You're fortunate. And I guess your experience with the sales girl backs up what I thought about this stuff.

Yeah, and can you believe that price? I do like the primer. I was about to go get some Smashbox primer for another mascara so this was not a total loss.

Take care

Almost got it (Reply to this comment)

I almost got this when I saw it at the Loreal store at the mall. The Loreal store is different from the drugstore because, every single product has a tester and the sales people really know the products. But they never have any sales.

The sales girl was telling me what a great mascara this is, it really gives good volume, blah, blah...

Then when she realized she knew me she said its not that great, not to bother getting it.

I will not be getting it, your review really proves what a peice of crap this is, it looked so big,and weird, shaped like fish. And its so expensive.
