My God---this stuff sucks. I read a review on here that said it smelled terrible---I wasn't sure if it was someone particularly sensitive to cosmetics scents so I chose to disregard it. But IT STINKS!!! Like burnt rubber! It's awful! As for the actual texture and performance of this product---ehhh, it's okay. It glides on smooth, no clumps, it's true. But my lashes looked totally blah- average, no volume and that's about it. Don't buy it. I was on the hunt for the perfect volumizing mascara for my long, skinny lashes---this ain't it. It goes back to the store asap. What a waste of money!
