What the gurus are saying

Gurus praise the formula for clean separation and a natural appearance at an unbeatable price point. The main trade-off is performance: it tends toward clumping for some users and smudges moderately throughout the day. Removal is notably difficult and doesn't come off in clean tubes as tubing mascaras typically should, making washability the weakest link despite the low cost.

"This one by E.L.F. is $8, and you guys did not stop talking about it. I had to try it because that price is unbeatable. Can't beat the price for sure. It looked nice on the skin. It was a little clumpy for me, but maybe that's a personal thing, like how sometimes skincare pills on some people and not on others. Honestly, for $8, it's really hard to beat. Something to consider."

"The e.l.f. mascara got a five out of five for application, it separated each lash and they looked really nice. The appearance also got a five out of five. I love this for a more natural look. The Milani was more spiky and shiny whereas the e.l.f. was a little bit more natural looking and it definitely extended my lashes. As far as smudging, it did smudge a touch and got a three out of five. For washability, it did not do well, it took a lot for me to get this off, it wasn't easy to wash off, and it didn't necessarily come off in exact tubes, so it also got a two out of five for wash off."
