Mascara that Works at a Good Price
I have used CoverGirl So Lashy! Blastpro Mascara, Black/Brown daily since receiving it in the mail. Not sure if I am Mascara snob but I usually use Mary Kay's Ultimate Mascara. I have tried similar mascaras with this type of wand and have been somewhat underwhelmed. I think I would have continued to feel this way with the CoverGirl So Lashy! Blastpro Mascara, Black/Brown if it didn't have the ball tip at the end of the wand. I think the ball tip saved this product for me. I like how the ball tip allowed me to separate clumped together lashes. I was happy to read on the box that the product was "ophthalmologically tested" and "suitable for contact lens wearers." As an adolescent I used to be hypersensitive to eye makeup and I was pleased that ophthalmologist tested the product. I am also a contact user so knowing that it was suitable for contact lens wearers made feel good that a person like me was considered. The easy to remove with soap and water wasn't relevant for me because I continued to use my Mary Kay Eye Makeup remover with my same results of effective, easy removal. Overall I think that CoverGirl lives up to it's name with this reasonable priced mascara.

New mascara
I used this product when I first got it and hoped that it would really define my lashes but I found it really did not do much more more than others. The wand was unique but I found it confusing. I think someone with more patience than I have.

Very full and lush mascara
Its a great everyday mascara but when you want that extra special volume it can provide that as well. I think a brush makes a mascara and this brush is unique and really finds all of your lashes to really produce full lashes,

Bizarrely shaped mascara applicator.
I used the product in the morning while getting ready for work. The brush is a bizarre shape and very awkward to use. I suppose someone that is far more coordinated in mascara application could use this without the same problems I experienced.

Great everyday mascara.
I used the product for my work-ready look as well as for going out and special occasions. I loved the full lash look it offered and that it was long-lasting. This would be a great everyday mascara. Perfect for when you want to dress up or down.

Covergirl So Lashy! Blastpro Mascara
I found the packaging attractive. The first thing I noticed upon opening was the shape of the brush. I am not a big fan of it. I felt it was a little awkward using it but managed. I have to say, after applying I was quite impressed. It really thickened the look of my lashes which is a plus at my age. It did not clump, it was not too thick. It was just the right color I like. Overall quite satisfied and would recommend.

Amazing
The cover girl so Lasky blast pro mascara is absolutely amazing. I definitely was able to get full coverage on my lashes. The tip of the wand on the mascara helped me to be able to get to the lashes on the corners near my nose. Which is nearly impossible to do with other brands. I am totally satisfied with this product and would definitely recommend to a friend.

Really nice mascara
Since I've started working, I wear make-up daily. The mascara I usually wear is waterproof, and it takes a LOT to remove it. I choose the waterproof stuff, because regular mascara leaves me with raccoon eyes by midday, and that just doesn't look good when you're at work. I tired Go Lashy and was pleasantly surprised. It didn't clump, didn't go on thick at all(spider leg eyelashes), didn't give me raccoon eyes AND didn't take much effort at all to wash it off. I haven't worn it yet while doing something where I'm actively sweating, so I can't say how it'll hold up. But if I'm being that active, I probably shouldn't be wearing mascara anyway. I really do like this product.

Nice product.
I really like the wand on this mascara. The ball on the end to get the edges of your eyelashes. It was also nice that the wand came new and separate from the mascara tube. I would definitely use this again.

Covergirl lashes to the max
I used this product in the morning after applying foundation and blush. I prefer a natural daytime look for cosmetics and did not apply eye shadow or liner. It took me a brief period of time to learn how to use the unique brush, but once I did I liked it very much. I always wipe off a lot of the mascara on a paper towel for daytime look, I do this with all brands as I don't want a glam look during the day. The brush separated and colored my lashes adding length and volume; it dried quickly and did not flake off during the day. I easily removed it with cold cream. This product would be right for anyone who uses mascara on a regular basis.

Love this applicator!!
I love this mascara. I was a little sceptical when I got a look at the applicator because it is shaped unlike any other applicator I have ever seen. It really does a fabulous job of separating my lashes and evenly distributing the mascara. I couldn't be happier.

Not a very dramatic look
I used this product with the straight edge wand and then used the ball at the corners of my eyelashes

It was OK, but not my favorite
I did not like the mascara brush even though it is unique to this product.

Ok mascara
I do like this mascara but no enough to buy it regularly. The little ball at the end is really handy to go back over small parts of your eyelashes but you need to be careful with it when using the full part, it's really easy to stick yourself in the corner of the eye and make a mess of yourself..i did it twice :( I think i'd like the wand better if it was inverted on the other side. The mascara itself is a nice color and sticks nicely though I do usually use waterproof. If this was on sale I would consider buying it again .

Ingenious wand brush with lash finder ball tip
Cover Girl SO LASHY! Blast PRO mascara came up with an ingenious wand. They are so sure it's unique, they want you to see it. In the box you will find the mascara tube with a small cap and next to it, the wand. Wand has a brush side and on the tip a ball like brush. This ball part gives a precision, you will notice right away. It helps with inside and outside corners of eyes. Finds any little lash you have on the corners. It's also handy if you want to add a touch of a second coat under upper lashes. One coat seems to do a well enough job, making lashes look longer. Perfect for day ware. For a night time more dramatic use, you can apply a second coat for thicker darker looking lashes. I believe anyone wearing mascara can benefit from trying Cover Girl So Lashy! blast PRO mascara. You'll love the ball tip lash finder.

Long lasting for long lashes!
I was excited to try the Covergirl So Lashy! Mascara because of the uniquely shaped brush. I have invisible lashes, so I am always looking for a product to make me look like they are long and gorgeous. When I first saw the brush, it was way too coated at the end little ball, so that was the initial problem. But after I cleaned off the excess, I thought it would be great for getting the tips of my lashes, especially on the outer corners. But that little ball just clumped the mascara. I did really like the arched sides of the brush. They really seemed to separate my lashes, but add a nice coat to make my lashes look nice and long. Overall, I would recommend this product for its dark black color, long lasting formula, and the arched brush. But I would caution others about the little ball at the tip of the brush. I may just snip that off!

Very awkward & messy
Brush design is very awkward & doesn't make sense that it would have a flat part in the center. The box does not give a good enough explanation of what you are supposed to do with the strange angles. I had mascara all over my eyelids & under my eyelashes, lashes clumped together & it's very frustrating to use.

I did not like this product.
I did not like this product. I have small eyelashes and need a good, thick mascara. I feel like it would've been better with a better brush. I don't think the plastic brush coated my lashes well. I had to do a lot more coats tgan usual.

It requires some practice but it works.
I liked this product once I gave myself some time to get used to the unusual wand. I expected it to be more three dimensional so I was surprised with the shape. The first few times there was too much mascara on the brush so it was really messy. The next few times I was still trying to figure out how the wand was supposed to be used so it was messy and time consuming. I always had to clean up around my eyes when I was done applying the mascara. I have used it for a few weeks now and I have gotten used to it but I still have to be very careful applying it. I like the way my lashes look with it and the mascara lasts until I take it off.
Verified member
There are better options
This mascara just didn't work for me. I didn't find that it gave me anything special compared to others I have used in the past. I applied several layers just to get the lashes to stand out, but I noticed a lot of sticking and clumping. I expected more from something called "So Lashy" and "BlastPro".
Verified member
so many ways to use it
It was cool to have so many ways to use this on my lashes. I really like it.

Not a fan for the price
I didn't really like my experience with the mascara. It was fairly expensive ($10) and I didn't think that it opened my eyes/extended my lashes any better than the $3 mascara that I had bought before. If I get a mascara that expensive, I would go ahead and get good quality like Clinique that is really effective. It made my lashes clump somewhat and the little "touch up" ball at the end got in the way more than it helped.

Good Mascara, Horrible Brush
I was very surprised by how much this mascara cost. I bought the waterproof in black. The mascara is very waterproof, but it didn't really make my lashes any darker than the black/brown that I've been using. I guess the big selling point of this mascara was the unique brush with the ball on the end. Hated the brush! The ball on the end caused me to get mascara on my eyelids as I was applying. The entire process was very awkward.
Verified member
Great product, easy to use.
I don't understand the ball at the end of the mascara wand, and it didn't separate my eye lashes quite like I'm used to. But it worked well, and is waterproof just like I wanted.

A Fun Mascara....
This is a lot different from other mascara's that I've used. It works great and the brush is.. well... just fun. It covers nicely. I would buy it again.
Verified member
Disappointed with the ease of use.
It looked complicated and for me it was. The only difference between this and the one brush is that you don't have to reapply the mascara to the brush as often because you can rotate to use all 3 brushes if necessary. Hence, there was waste for me who only needed one brush per eye plus the ball tip. My lashes are thick and long without mascara so this applied too much for my liking. The ball tip was unique and I found it helpful in the corner of the eyes and on the whole lower lid in general. The mascara itself was on the dry side so I don't know if this was a fresh unit or whether it was supposed to be like that. Some people would probably like it but I prefer the old style single brush.

The best part is the wand
The best part of this product is the wand. The mascara is just average. Goes on ok and lasts. But the wand is the game changer! It has four different wands in one. Each wand has plastic bristles at different intervals, to apply the mascara at different amounts. My favorite part it the tip which really gets to the bottom lashes or if you want to coat an individual lash.

Makes my tiny, barely there lashes pop
I have sparse, fine, light colored, barely visible lashes. Usually mascara either clumps them together, not a flattering look, or the brush cannot grab my lashes. The brush in this tube is amazing! I grabs every lash, and the little ball tip gets those pesky corner lashes. My one and only mascara from now on!

Wow a look I never expected, great mascara
I found that the CoverGirl SoLashy gave the lashes that were fantastic and nobody had to glue them on me! I really liked the way it looked on me! It was easy to use and gave me lashes had haven't had since I was in my twenties!! Thanks CoverGirl!

Pretty Good Mascara
My GF thought the Covergirl So Lashy! Blastpro Mascara did a decent job of defines and separating her lashes while at the same time lengthening and adding volume. The even application and lack of clumping was a major bonus. However, she wasn't a big fan of the wand which was surprising because when I first gave her the package, she was most excited about the wand. The mascara wand was hard to use and the ball at the tip caused more problems for her. She liked that the Covergirl Mascara formula didn't flake and that it's a generally very good product.

I really loved this mascara
I used the mascara today and it really went on easy. It didn't clump and made my lashes look long and I loved the color of the mascara too. It lasted all day and didn't flake When I removed the makeup it came off easily and didn't irritate or burn my eyes. The price was great too.

Works but too hard to apply.
The CoverGirl So Lashy! Blast Pro Mascara works and makes small lashes longer and thicker however I found it hard to apply. I was constantly concerned that I would poke the tip in my eyes. Definitely not good and even worse since I wear contact. Too bad because I love the idea and I have very short and thin lashes.

Great Coverage
This mascara works well., I thought it had about the same coverage as some others. The bristles on the tip are what was most different and I had a little trouble using them. I believe that with further use I will become more adept with them., Overall I would buy this again if I had a good coupon.

Good lengthening mascara
I have very short lashes and this mascara was very easy with lengthening without being fiddly. However, I did not get the volume I expected. If you need volume, you might need to fiddle and have a lot of practice with this mascara. I prefer some of my other mascaras for volume. If you are looking for length, then this is the one. I will probably use this mascara for length and apply another mascara for volume. Also this mascara has great staying power, and didn't flake off. I curled my lashes, then applied one coat of mascara, and they've looked great all day.

Effective but not my favorite
I use mascara almost everyday. I've tried many different brands and feel pretty comfortable with my ability to apply mascara. The coverage from the wand alone is lacking a bit. The bristles aren't as great at getting each lash nicely coated. I was hopeful about the lash finder tip as it would save me a step with my makeup routine. I don't know if it is the awkward way I had to use the tip or just the tool itself. I just could not get nice, defined lashes with the lash finder. I was left with lots of mascara on my face I had to clean up each time. As a mascara the product works, albeit, not as great as other mascara on the market. The lash finder, not so much.

Great Mascara
I really like this mascara. The brush is really designed well for lashes. The way the brush is designed the mascara goes on your lashes flawlessly. The rounded end of the brush is perfect for your lower and inner lashes and to smooth out clumps. Really worked well for me. I like this product a lot.

Good basic mascara but didn't like the tip
This mascara was easy to apply and did a good job of covering and separating my lashes. But the tip seemed to clog up with the mascara and I had some issues with it. I had to wipe the mascara off the tip to use it. The mascara did not run and it was easy to wash off. I wear contact lenses and had no problems using it with my lenses.

Lashes are bigger
The product was easy to use. My Lashes make my eyes look bigger and stand out more. It's great.

About the same as all the rest
This mascara is just okay. It doesn't seem to flake of under my eyes, but it's a little clumpy.

Decent mascara for the price
The price is right so I tried it. With a coat of primer, which I always use, the mascara looked good with one coat.

So fun to use!
I love this wand. It is such a fun one to use. I stroke it on my lashes then use the little bulb on the end to separate them out. It works really great and gives great coverage. My new favorite!

So Lashy! 3-1 Brush Gets all the LASHES
Covergirl So Lashy! Blastpro Mascara has a really cool new brush, it is 3-1 and hits all my lashes. I always buy brown-black color, to keep my lashes looking natural, and this was a welcome addition to my eyes!

I like that there are lots of options for different looks and different amounts of mascara based on what you want. Pretty pricey not sure I would choose it.

Good mascara
I'm used to buying more expensive mascaras but I have to say this does the job too. I wasn't in love with the brush as much as I thought I'd like...didn't separate as much as I like without more effort put in.

Great results for a shopper on a budget
I was impressed with this mascara. It helped lengthen my lashes and bring the shorter lashes alive as well. Really like this mascara, just found the wand a bit difficult to maneuver at times. The design was interesting and made some sense, just was a bit difficult to use at times. I longed for my regular mascara brushes when using this product, but I had to be patient and use it as it was meant to be used. My lashes were longer, fuller and had more definition. Enjoyed using this mascara.

Loved how this made my eyelashes stand out.
This Covergirl "So Lashy" mascara product in extreme black finally made me look like I actually had some eyelashes; loved how thick and long my eye lashes appeared to be; the application is unique with the lash finder ball at the end of the applicator; helped separate lashes for an even fuller look. Loved this product and will definitely be purchasing it again in the future.

So lashy is right!!!

Hard to use
This mascara is not good. The unwieldy brush does nothing to help the application, and the mascara itself is just average. I like my mascara to thicken, keep a curl, and darken my lashes. This is too wet to thicken, doesn't keep a curl, and darkens ok. Mediocre mascaca, imo.
Verified member
Awkward
I liked the general packaging and concept for the oddly-shaped want with this mascara but in reality it didn't work so well. The ball on the end is more awkward to use than I expected and the formula itself was clumpy and had a lot of fallout. I really wanted to like this because of the unique design concept, but it fell flat for me.
Verified member
Hard to hold goes on thick
The brush is really hard to hold. It constantly is ready to slip right out of my hand. The bulbous brush is hard to use. It goes on very thick in some places but misses others. Then, when you go back to get those missed spots you just end up adding more to the thick spots. Its also really hard to get down close to the roots.

LOVE this mascara!
I usually buy a simple Covergirl mascara. This So Lashy Blastpro mascara has been incredible! It made my lashes look longer, thicker and more defined. I followed the directions of using the wand one way first and then using the special tip. I could see myself wearing this on an evening out, but I like it so much that I may end up wearing it to work. It really makes my eyes stand out. Very pleased with this product.

Longer lashes
I was very impressed with this Covergirl so lashes mascara and the way that it helped to make my lashes look longer and thicker and more noticeable. It has a really cool brush that helps to extend lashes but also give them thickness to make them more noticeable. I like that it works to actually separate the lashes and coat them for a more dramatic look
