I've been really impressed with Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara. From the first application, it made my lashes look noticeably fuller, longer, and much more dramatic without feeling heavy. The rich black formula gives an intense, bold look that instantly makes my eyes stand out.I love how the brush coats every lash evenly, adding plenty of volume while still keeping my lashes separated and defined. It lasts well throughout the day with very little smudging or flaking, even after hours of wear. Despite the dramatic effect, it removes easily at the end of the day.If you're looking for a mascara that delivers big volume, great length, and a luxurious finish, this is definitely one I'd recommend. It's become a staple in my makeup bag and never fails to make my lashes look amazing.

This black mascara has a nice brush and formula that stays on all day despite not being waterproof. It’s reliable and something you can trust to put on at the beginning of the day or carry separately in a purse or bag to layer on as the day continues. It also doesn’t really tend to clump; you’d really have to be trying to put several layers if that were to be the case. It’s also very easy to take off. Overall, it’s not anything mind-blowing and is probably not worth the price, but could be worthwhile if you manage to get it on sale, especially since I believe these are no longer in production.

This is such a gorgeous and buildable mascara. It gives your lashes a true lengthening effect. My lashes naturally point down and this was an excellent mascara for lifting them up. It’s easy to remove without irritating my eyes.
