FormulaWashable

Maybelline Great Lash BIG is a drugstore workhorse that delivers buildable volume and lengthening in a classic, accessible formula. The brush features a traditional comb-style wand with soft bristles designed to separate and thicken lashes without heavy clumping. Washable formula makes removal straightforward—no harsh scrubbing required. Wear time is solid for a non-waterproof option (~8 hours), though community feedback notes it can smudge slightly on oily lids by late afternoon. The two-pack format offers genuine value at drugstore pricing. Best suited for everyday wear and those seeking volume without drama; less ideal for all-day longevity or waterproof demand.
