If I could give minus 0 stars I would! Your colossal mascara is a joke. They are pretty much empty pots. No matter how much I apply there is no effect at all. The only thing colossal about it is it's a big colossal mistake to purchase. Absolute waste of money. Threw a brand new one in the bin because it's absolute rubbish!!
Perfector 4-in-1-glow. It states it is a primer/concealer/highlighter/bb cream. It is not. It's like putting glittery, watery oil on your face. Felt gross on the skin and did nothing to improve the appearance. Would give it no stars if I could. An absolute waste of money I can't get back. It may work as a highlighter over products that actually do what they claim but I'll never know. AVOID.

TATTOO EYELINER RUBBISH – Tattoo eyeliner a total waste of money, trying to sharpen the plastic is a wate of time the crayon won't come to a point and just breaks off when you try to use it, the biggest rip off of all time MAYBELLINE Doesn't deserve 1 star. Will never by MAYBELLINE again, the products are rubbish. Buyer BEWARE.
Unsatisfactory product – I purchased a "mini palette" eyeshadow & it has disintegrated just from being in my bag. Not much point if it can't travel.

Do not buy Maybelline's brow tattoo product – I purchased the Maybelline Waterproof Brow Tattoo product yesterday. It is soo bad! I had to cut open the plastic tube to see if there was actually any product in there! See attached photos. The small container was practically 'empty' of product. I tried to 'swivel' the brush around inside the tube but it kept coming up empty. Do not buy this… Read more
product! Total rip off! I purchased it at a local Chemist Warehouse. I phoned them. They found my receipt on their check out machine & will refund me when I next come into the store.
Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse. This is the BEST COVER UP!! – This cover up is AMAZING!!! It is light after application. It makes your skin look amazing. And it's not very expensive. Affordable, easy to put on, looks great, doesn't make you feel loaded with makeup. Try it. Its smooth and I have no complaints about it. Just make sure you get the right color for your complexion .
Horrible chemical burns! – Will never buy a single maybeline product again the super stay foundation has given me horrible chemical burns partially on my eyelids so painful. Makes me wonder what is actually in the products.

Matte cream lip Stick – Matte cream lip stick daringly nude is one of my favourite lip stick products it goes on smooth and stays on for hours I love the cream soft texture it has in comparison to Other products that go cracked when they are matte
The 24hour foundation is amazing! – Every since I started using the 24hour foundation i stopped using all of my high-end foundations. The product is very full coverage, however, it's very light feeling in the skin so it doesn't look cakey. i love this foundation and would definitely recommend it to try.
The only foundation that doesn’t make me break out – I only use maybeline foundation as it’s cheap and don’t cause pimples. I’ve always gone back as all others make me break out. Very cheap at Woolworths too. The fit one is my favourite
Negative reviews
Foundation issue – I have bought the exact same foundation on multiple occasions and have never had a problem with it. As it is winter I go and buy a lighter shade then my summer shade I bought the correct shade match as shown in the glass bottle and on the packaging I went to use it and it looked as if literal water and oil came out the shade looked nothing like… Read more
the one I bought levaing me as pale as a ghost. I do not have a issue with the shade as I’ll just buy a different one but the fact that no matter how many times I shook or pumped out my foundation it dripped off my hand when the formula has never been runny.
Tattoo liner has virtually no pigment – I have tried contacting maybelline Australia but there’s only an America phone number listed. The tattoo liner is now pretty much grey, won’t stay on the waterline and needs to be reapplied constantly. It’s not “dramatic” AT ALL and I can’t even speak to someone about it. Waste of money. Oh and every time to retract the pencil a bit breaks off. Rip off, crappy product that I USED to use all the time

Very poor quality – Have used Maybelline for 20-30 yrs. Recently have bought the Sky High and Lucious brands Have thrown them both in the rubbish. Wand / brush not as advertised, eg., black colour and more bristles, other blue brush illustrated and it is delivered as black. I will not be buying this brand because of this current contradictions on their website.

Bring back 565 – Why on earth would you discontinue Almond Rose 565 The perfect colour for all occasions. The recommended colour is no where near it. It was a customer fav. Who ever makes these decisions needs to be discontinued. Luckily Clinique have a close enough colour.
So disappointed in Maybelline vinyl ink – Have half a dozen of the Matt ink and think they are fantastic. Bought the Vinyl Ink and spent most of the day constantly wiping my teeth to remove it. So disappointed.
Perverts product – Given that they've chosen a man dressed as a woman as their face I will be boycotting this product. I won't use any product which promotes perverts and predators
Maybelline The Falsies Waterproof Mascara - don't believe what's on the packet – I was looking to replace my trusted Maybelline Lash Discovery Waterproof mascara , which I have used for YEARS, even buying it on ebay. I love it because it has a small brush which means I can get it on my lower lashes and NOT my face. I looked at lots of different ones and quite a few have pictures of the wand on the packet ....usually saying… Read more
something about the picture being the size of the brush. Maybelline The Falsies had a picture too... Turns out that the picture is totally unrelated to the size of the brush. What a waste of $16. When I emailed Maybelline saying this, I got a reply basically saying I was dumb because you can tell how big a wand is by the size of the tube! We all have plenty of experience with the 'big box' and the 'small contents' so why should mascara tubes be any different? Perhaps you can the size of the brush from the tube - call me clueless but I think only if you have lots of experience with different types of mascara!! Gets 2 stars not 1 because it IS waterproof.
Pathetic product superstay – I bought 4 lipshades of superstay matte lipstick. It is just pathetic.. i have never even used for a single day as it becomes so cracky and half of tge lipshade goes while eating.. half lip is with lipstick and half goes out. Just pathetic
Purchased the Mabelline hypersharp wing eyeliner, claims to twist & have a thin tip & a thicker one;absolute rubbish – I purchased the Mabelline hypersharp wing eyeliner claiming to twist & have a thin tip & a thicker one: what a load of nonsense! It doesnt 'twist' at all!! I brought a 2nd one thinking perhaps the 1st was faulty but nope, same thing again! Marketing gimmick which is false & misleading! Waste of money, total ripoff. Will never purchase Mabelline again
Best value foundation – Very easy to apply, great coverage (I have uneven skin tone and lots of freckles) doesn't cause acne or blackheads when removed at the end of the day, and lasts extremely well for the price.

Instant Age Rewind Eraser Treatment Makeup – Purchased the Nude color Age Rewind & its EXTREMELY orange that has an awful round sponge applicator attached thats streaky & not user friendly by any means. It required additional blending to even it out. This foundation also actually accentuated wrinkles I didn't even notice before application! The original age rewind was fabulous this is NOT… Read more
even close to the original formula.
I left this feedback on the Maybelline official site & the response I received back was cold, generic & impersonal telling ME it must be user error & I need to do additional blending! Are you kidding me!? I told THEM that! Terrible response from this customer service.
Gorgeous foundation - the maybelline superstay 24hr – I used (2 drugstore foundations)the maybelline super stay 24hour foundation I actually used the light beige 05 as a base and then added the sand shade to add colour to my face as it's darker .The light beige foundation acts as a brilliant concealer .I love the coverage the maybelline foundations give .I was always a fan of their products they… Read more
Never disappoint!I have used this foundation in several pictures on my Instagram beauty blog "xtines_beauty_obsessions"
Fantastic mascara! Reasonable price – I have been using Maybelline Volum' Express Colossal Mascara - Black for two months. The mascara is of good quality, it gives volume to your lashes and the packaging is very pretty and sturdy. It goes a long way and I would definitely buy it again and recommend it to others.
Maybelline is my favourite make up brand – My first maybelline product was their iconic mascara..since then I'v e been a loyal fan. Recently purchased their new lip ink which lasts ALL DAY - have never found a lipstick that can do this. I have sensitive skin and have never had a reaction to any of their products. Highly recommend.
Maybelline MasterPrecise Skinny Gel pencil = Terrible eyeliner, falsely advertised – This eyeliner is crap. It’s really difficult to apply as whatever it’s made of is quite dry & just crumbles at the slightest pressure against your eyelid, so you end up wasting so much of it. There is nothing skinny or precise about it, in fact it’s near impossible to achieve a nice neat thin line, let alone do wing tips. False advertising, rubbish product. Won’t ever buy again.
SOS Foundation – Ladies! If you have not tried the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation Matte + Poreless foundation, put it on your bucket list! It is the most amazing product, beautiful consistency, complete coverage and gives you a gorgeous finish for photo's/snaps etc I have seen so many Bloggers using it and thought I would compare it to Wet & Wild liquid foundation, and the Maybelline was SO much better.
Disapointed – I've try the "eyebrow tattoo" what a joke, doesn't work like showed on TV ads, you need to stop misleading customer it is not fair.I bought one in target but it was half full, is it how you sell them too, you need to review your product and give customer better satisfaction, value for money.
Loving the finish Maybelline Superstay 24hr Foundation – I bought the Maybelline 24hr Superstay on half price special at Coles in Nude Beige. I like a decent coverage and read some good reviews so at the discount price I thought I'd give this foundation a try. The coverage was medium to full and I found it did last without needing touch up. I think the real secret is in how it's applied. I let my day… Read more
moisturiser settle then use a light weight primer. Give this 5 minutes and apply the foundation with my finger tips. I finally pat my face with a damp cosmetic sponge. The finish is really smooth and I find it doesn't settle in lines or pores. I have used Estee Lauder for years but became disappointed in the Double Wear and also the Perfectionist foundation for mature skin which I hated and it cost $75!! I found with a tan the Nude Beige is a little pale so I also purchased the Golden on special and it's better suited to my skin colour at the moment as I have a medium holiday tan. I will purchase again but having read previous reviews I will be very disappointed if the formula has changed as maybe I bought older stock and that's why it was half price. I hope not I'm loving the finish, my skin looks great and I'm over 45.
Why change the formula for Superstay 24 Hour make up – So disappointed with the new formula. It feels too oily and does not have the natural texture as before. Looks like it has been put on too thick on the skin when the application has been the same as before. 021 Nude Beige is obviously the best seller as I have gone to a few stores to try to pick up old stock but that is the one missing, been replaced with new stock. Sorry I will have to change brands.
