Questions
Q: I'm 74 with hazel eyes and a golden blonde pixie haircut. I now feel that black mascara is too harsh, should I switch to dark brown or brown?
a year ago- A: Hi wahine! Thanks for reaching out about Great Lash®. Hazel eyes tend to have a bit of brown and green in them, so you can pretty much wear any colored mascara you want– lucky you! But, it’s up to you to decide which color in your eyes you want to bring out. In addition to blue and pink, hazel eyes play super well with purple shades, such as burgundy-colored mascara since it’s technically a mix of the two.a year agoHelpful?
Q: Do they still make great lash waterproof mascara?
a year ago- A: Hi Rhondakop! Thanks for reaching out. Yes! We still manufacture Great Lash Waterproof Mascara in shades: Very Black and Brownish Black. You can find this product in your local retail stores or purchase online from an online retailer. You may also find our Product Locator on our website helpful to find a store near you that carries it.a year agoHelpful?
Q: Where is the production date found?
a year ago- A: Hello there! Thank you for your interest in our Great Lash®.Unless stamped with an expiration date, our products do not expire! Our products have been tested to have at least a 3-year shelf life if unopened and stored at normal room temperature, during which they will retain their integrity and perform as expected. If your product looks and smells the way it normally does, it is good to use. We hope this helped!a year agoHelpful?
Q: Is great lash very black mascara gluten free
2 years ago- A: Hello there! Most ingredients derived from grain sources are highly refined and retain no traces of gluten proteins. For less refined ingredients from natural sources, Maybelline has established strict limits on the level of potentially allergenic proteins. Since individuals exhibit a wide range of sensitivities to these proteins, if you have any questions or concerns you should discuss with your medical care provider. All the ingredients we use in a product are listed on the package or the label of the product itself. For products too small to accommodate the list, a separate ingredient list is available on the display unit in the store for your convenience. Since some ingredients are known by more than one name, we use the standard industry FDA-recognized names. A review of the ingredients that are listed on all of our products or packages will alert you to the presence of this type of ingredient.2 years agoHelpful?
Q: Dear Maybaline, Why oh WHY did you change your formula after all these years. This latest tube I bought is terrible. I struggle to get it on (I get that it takes a few days for a new tube to be right but I have waited a week). And I can't remove either!

Please contact us at 800-944-0730, M-F 9:00 am – 5:30 pm ET for assistance and provide reference #30377502. Looking forward to speaking with you.

6 years ago- A: AGREE!!! I also use baby oil to get it off and this new one I just bought WILL NOT COME OFF. I have no idea why they changed their formula.2 years agoHelpful?
Q: Hello, lately I have noticed a big difference in quality with the Brownish Black Waterproof Great Lash products. Seems they do not apply or last like they used to and the look when applied is very different between containers. Why is this?
3 years ago- A: Hi there. It is possible that minor changes have been made in the formula of a product; however, the performance should meet or exceed previous results and may not be noticeable at all. There are different reasons why a formula might be changed; availability of ingredients, changing industry requirements, and product improvements are common examples. The ingredients listed on the physical product are always accurate listing. We hope this helps!3 years agoHelpful?
Q: Is Brownish Black or Dark Brown Darker? THe colors above look like Dark Brown is darker, but the names are confusing. Thank you
4 years ago- A: Hi there, thank you for inquiring about our Great Lash® Washable Mascara! We want to help you the best way we can! The shade Brownish Black is a bit lighter. We recommend trying the Tap & Try feature found on our website to see which of our shades are best for you! We hope this helps! :)4 years agoHelpful?

Q: Am I the only customer who has noticed the tube of mascara isn’t lasting as long? I barely get 3 weeks of once daily use from a tube. Have been a loyal customer for 45 years and a tube used to last much longer.
6 years ago- A: I totally agree! I have been using the Royal Blue for years and the last 3 tubes I bought there was hardly any in it! As a matter of fact I returned the last one because I couldn’t get any out!! So disappointed.....5 years agoHelpful?
