Top features
Maybelline Great Lash BIG is a washable, drugstore mascara designed for volumizing and thickening with a flexible bristle brush. The formula delivers buildable volume without heavy clumping, though it can smudge by midday on oily lids. Wear time is moderate (6–8 hours) and removal is easy. Who it's for: budget-conscious shoppers seeking dramatic volume at a sub-$15 price point, and those who prefer washable over waterproof. A solid entry-level volumizer with iconic brand heritage, but outpaced by trendier options like Lash Princess in online buzz and longevity.
