Doesn't Come Close

February 5, 2012
By KSako
from Orange County, CA
"Doesn't hold a candle to Marathon mascara. Flakes, runs and doesn't hold a curl. More money wasted on trying to find something to replace Marathon. I'm athletic and outdoorsy, so I really enjoyed Marathon's staying power. PLEASE bring it back!"

Thumbs down

January 24, 2012
By Elisha
"I can't believe this is the substitute for Marathon. This flaked so badly, ran if I came near water and made my lashes stick straight. More money wasted. Please bring back Marathon. I'll pay triple for it lol, probably more. Petition maybe ; )"

"This was okay for the price. I have tried all the Cover Girl "waterproof" mascaras, and none of them can come close to Marathon. Cover Girl needs to bring it back!"

Dissapointing

September 20, 2011
By Weepy
from Topeka, KS
"Marathon Waterproof was the ONLY one that ever worked well for me, & it would seem that others feel the same. I keep trying others with no success. I have oily eyelids, & watery eyes. This one left flakes and smears. Please bring back what we want!"

Excellent purchase

September 18, 2011
By Lilly26
"I have straight Asian eyelashes, and this is the only mascara that really works for me. It clumps a little, so what I do is I blink slightly while applying. This mascara is definitely waterproof, and I love it! It definitely keeps my eyelashes curled"

By Lyn3333
from Mankato, MN
"I wore Marathon Mascara since my teens and it never flaked off or gave me black rings under my eyes like this CG product does. I am so disappointed that Cover Girl will not return Marathon Mascara back to the shelves after reading all the requests!"

At last!

August 17, 2011
By geogirl
from Ventura, California
"After my favorite mascara was discontinued (L'Oreal), I tried many brands (incl. other CG products) until I found Pro All-in-One. It separates and defines fine lashes, and the Waterproof version really holds the curl and lasts all day. Thank you CG!"

NOT SO GOOD.....

August 12, 2011
By JuliaK
from Colorado Springs, Colorado
"Pros: very waterproof, cleanser-proof, cry-proof, anything-proof.
Cons: Will not get the heck off my eyelashes, is heavy, thick, and clumpy, and does not coat my lashes one-by-one, as Covergirl says all their mascaras will.
"

We are glad you are enjoying the Pros of the product. I am sorry you are having a difficult time removing the mascara. You may want to try our Cover Girl Clean Makeup Remover for Eye and Lips.

not waterproof

August 1, 2011
By watergirl
from Jackson, Wyoming
"Please bring back marathon mascara. I have tried all your mascaras & the marathon mascara was the only one that was truly waterproof. The professional all-in-one is fine for a non-swimmer & crier. CG marathon mascara is now going on ebay for $75."

By heathermrm
from Twin Cities, MN
"Potential replacement for Marathon? NOT! As w/ many women on big makeup review site = FAIL! I've used Marathon since high school (I'm now 45). Tried most CG h2o-proof mascaras as replacements = nope! Very sad CG has lost a customer of 30 years."

Best Mascara

May 7, 2011
By Jenni4
from Pasadena, TX
"I've tried alot of different mascaras, but this one is my favorite. I have fairly skimpy lashes with no natural curl, so i have to curl them daily. This waterproof formula helps hold the curl, and resists clumping and smuging. Love it in Very Black"

I am sorry you were not happy with the CoverGirl Professional Mascara. I will certainly let the rest of the CoverGirl team know your feelings. In the meantime, I'd like to recommend the LashBlast Volume Waterproof. Hope you give it a try!

Mascara For the Long Haul

April 12, 2011
By margaretw
"This might sound gross but, I do lots of hard work outside and sweat frequently runs into my eyes/off my eyelashes. This is the only product that doesn't leave my under-eyes black and lashes either bare or spiky. NOTHING makes this mascara budge."
