Not the same formula!
25 days ago
I've used this mascara for years. I would buy more expensive brands from time to time, but always came back to this one because it was a fabulous mascara for the price. But sadly, I think I need to find a replacement. This last tube is terrible! It smudges and smears. It's so bad that I wondered if I got a bad tube or if Loreal has changed formulas. I came to the Loreal website to see if others were having recent issues and it appears I'm not the only one that has noticed a change in the quality.

Hate new formula

Why did you change the formula? I’ve been using this for over 15 years and now I’m trying to find a replacement.
No, I do not recommend this product.

We appreciate you sharing your love of the previous formulation, and your loyalty to L'Oréal Paris. We are sorry to hear that the new formula of the Voluminous Original Mascara Blackest Black is not meeting your expectations. We understand it can be frustrating when your true favourite is discontinued or reformulated. At L'Oréal Paris we work tirelessly to develop the best in class makeup which includes updating formulas as new ingredients and technology become available. We may suggest trying our Voluminous Panorama Mascara. The formula stretches and extends, volumizing and lengthening each lash that is clump free.

Used to love, hate the new curved brush
a month ago
I used to absolutely love this product. I has been my go-to mascara for years. The last tube I bought, the wand has changed, and I hate it. I don’t know what prompted the change from a straight brush to curved, but it is the worst. Too much mascara stays on the brush and it now goes on in a clumpy mess. Please go back to the straight brush.

Hey RH COS! Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We completely understand how frustrating it is when a go-to product feels different, especially after relying on it for years. To help clear things up, we actually carry two different versions of this mascara to cater to different application preferences: one featuring the classic straight brush and one featuring the curved brush. It sounds like you may have accidentally picked up the curved-brush version this time around! Next time you shop, be sure to check the packaging details to make sure you grab the classic straight-brush formula you know and love. We truly appreciate your long-time loyalty and will be sure to share your feedback with our team! https://tinyurl.com/yg25u454

Leave a Good Thing Alone
a month ago
I am 69 years old and have use Voluminous mascara as long as I can remember. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with the last 2 or 3 I purchased until I noticed "24 Hour Wear" on the packaging. I don' t wear my make up for 24 hours. I don't need it to hold up that long. I wash my makeup off religiously every evening. The mascara is resistant to my usual removal methods whether with a wash cloth in the shower or make up remover at the sink. It fleks and flakes and ends up all over my face, in my eyebrows and hairline. I am so disappointed. You know the saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"? Try that logic how about.

Allergic Reaction
a month ago
I have us Voluminous curved brush mascara for over 20 years. Sadly I had to stop using it this June - each time I used the mascara my eyes would become irritated, itchy, watery and become extremely swollen. Initally I thought the reaction was due to an old tube, so I tried a new tube even different colors (black, brown and burgundy) all resulting in the same allergic reaction. I went makeup free during the summer to give my eyes a break and tried a new tube for the first day of school and ended the school day with red swollen eyes. I am so disappointed that I can no longer use Voluminous mascara.

Horrible!

I have used this product for the last 8 to ten years.
Clumps constantly fall in my eyes,hard to remove, and my eyelashes has never been so sparse since using this. Why would you switch a perfectly good product to this garbage ???

Too much product on wand after removing from tube.
2 months ago
I have bought this product a couple of times. I like the result but way too much mascara comes out of the tube. It's such a waste to have to wipe it down to use it.
