So Volume + Curl came home with me on my last visit. I like purple ok.
First impressions are good, the brush comes out of the tube easily and is loaded with a good amount of product. Actually, the first time the wand came out of the tube with far too much "batter*" on it, but the next time I took it out I twirled the brush/wand against the edge as I removed it from the tube.
It is black. A good solid black. Not some namby-pamby wanna-be black. The actual batter is a lovely and creamy and coats each lash nicely.
The brush is very different to anything I have used before. It is cone shaped AND it is curved. Very curved.
I like that my lashes didn't feel crunchy, and I only really needed one coat to get the effect I like. It gave loads of length too. Two coats would give some serious drama and would be great for a night out. But since the only place I go is school drop-offs and grocery pick-ups, one coat does me just fine.

I didn't have flaking issues with this, it lasted all day (from 8am until 9pm) and not a panda eye, or smudge in sight. I thought it was going to be a bit of a "beeotch" to remove, but it came away quite easily when I used my (almost empty) RoC Make up remover.
