I do love a good, affordable mascara. If you saw my guest post on Stephanie’s blog HERE, you’ll know I think some of the best mascaras out there are found in the aisles of Boots and Superdrug. So when I had the chance to try the new Maybelline Colossal Big Shot Mascara, I couldn’t wait to get loading my lashes up!
The Maybelline Colossal Big Shot Mascara is the perfect mascara for big, bold lashes. I was thrilled to find I was able to build lashes from root to tip easily. There’s none of that ‘big clump at the ends and no volume at the bottom’ kind of thing going on with this product. With just two coats, it gives me huge, full lashes, with lots of volume and just enough clump.
The Maybelline Colossal Big Shot Mascara might not be the best choice if you are after a light, natural finish to your lashes. But if, like me, you like your lashes to do the talking most days, and love them to be almost clumpy then this is the mascara for you.
The formula is super black, which is exactly what I look for in a mascara. I can’t stand formulas that come out grey-black or brown-black. The Maybelline Colossal Big Shot Mascara is jet black and stays that way all day – huge brownie points with me. The mascara also really holds a curl all day. I like to plump my lashes up with THESE Eyelash Curlers at the start of the day, but often find by mid-morning my lashes have started to go south. With this formula, you can count on it to keep your lashes sky-high, curled and long all day, for beautifully open, wide eyes.
So will you be trying out the Maybelline Colossal Big Shot Mascara? Let me know in the comments below. P.S: Keep an eye out on my Instagram for a video of me using the mascara!

I love Maybelline, this sounds like another fab product.
You have such pretty eyes! I like how the mascara accentuates the shape and size of your eyes x
Love the output! One coat is nice especially for day make up and the two coats for night make up. Your eyes really glow with that mascara!
It definitely does make a difference to your lashes, this is one I will be on the look out for x
This mascara looks brilliant, you don’t really need that second coat as it seems to work well with just one x
Wow this mascara looks amazing, I love all of Maybellines mascara ranges! Great review x
This product sounds right up my street. I’ve had a few mascaras from Maybelline in my time and always got on well with them
I think it looked better with one coat but it’s good to see an affordable mascara that actually works.
Might need to check if my local drugstore has this mascara because it looks amazing. I love maybelline when it comes to mascara, affordable and effective
