I was able to get my hands on one of the Fresh Sugar Berry Holiday sets (an amazing deal) from Sephora when I was shopping the Holiday sales, and this deluxe Supernova mascara sample came with (the full size lip treatment, the Sugar Lip Polish, and the Soy Face Cleanser). Sadly, it's safe to say I will not be buying the full size after having tried this.
As far as the initial results went, I was pleased by this mascara. The brush made it easy to build up volume, and I got some dramatic, yet clump-free lashes that actually felt like lashes, not stiff bristles. It was also flake-free and easy to remove. However, this mascara smudged on me like crazy. I would have smudges all around my eyes by midday, and I was constantly having to touch up my under-eye. The first hours of the day of nice lashes just weren't enough for me, so I tossed this. I'm really disappointed I didn't like it, too, considering the high price point.
As far as a great high-end mascara goes, I would recommend the Trish McEvoy ones (volumizing or curling). They don't clump, smudge, or flake, and are so easy to remove. The only problem is the price point, but for the perfect mascara, some of you might not care. As for drugstore, my favorite is the Maybelline Full n' Soft. It smudges/flakes a bit, but for the price and look (with a good powder under the eyes to help prevent smudges), it can't be beat.
What's your (least) favorite mascara?
