After watching the video and reading the product review, I wanted to try this. I have short, stubby and very straight lashes (thank God for old fashioned eyelash curlers!). Unfortunately, I also have sensitive skin and eyes and allergies. I was slightly upset that it only came in black, since I typically wear mascara in brown or brown/black. But, I wanted to try it. And wow... it's VERY black mascara! I tried it for two days, and it's great mascara. However, at the end of the first day I knew I was allergic to it. I tried it the 2nd day just to make sure. Then the 3rd day I went back to my regular mascara to confirm. Yep. Can't use it. Arrrrgh!!! And I know it's not cool to share mascara, but given that I'd only used it twice, I gave it to a girlfriend who happens to be African-American. I knew the color would be right for her and she was tickled to get it (yes, I told her I'd used it and was sensitive to it)

Maybe some of the other cosmetic companies will come out with the same concept. :(

Hey Marcia, Awww sorry you had a reaction, that sucks. I hear you, I would love it if it came in black/brown. Did you know you can return anything that gives you a reaction? You don't need to waste money on something that makes your eyes burn!!!
