LOVE this mascara. Yes, it's off the market. Called Almay to confirm "no longer made" and asked why they'd pull such a great product.I only wear mascara on top lashes only. And I'm a licensed esthetician (skin care/make-up application pro).I don't wear, nor care for "waterproof" (too hard on lashes), this is NOT. Yet, it will stay on over night while sleeping and look fresh in the morning. (Not a good habit to do, but I've done it when lazy). The mascara goes on smoothly, extends very well. I use my blow dryer on cool to dry them and keep lashes in upward direction. It lengthens exactly as described in title. I'm a brown eyed brunette with almond shaped eyes. Three applications per eye and my eyes POP!!! The lashes get so long my bangs can push them down. Love the liquid vs typical consistency of mascara. If I cry (and I did mourning my late sister this morning), last nights application still stayed on despite my tears. Easy to wash off in shower or sink. Quick to apply and dry. It's the only line and mascara I'll use. I buy this one in bulk as I know Almay will run out from its distribution centers soon enough. Thanks Almay for this formula ... still don't get why you'd stop producing it! I get compliments all the time on my eyes and I'm NOT a full face make-up woman ... just mascara and clear lip gloss. This makes me feel pretty and professionally done up! No need to pay for false lashes (personally never done, but I'm the pro women pay to apply). Yes, outside it clumps when the tube is opened to often or is getting old, but all mascaras do. I wear black/brown. Black for my tootsie-roll color eyes, is too stark for me. ?
