Studio Fix Lash,
Such a steal for 13 bucks!
Yer the bomb dizzle.
My lashes look so
Full and almost like they’re fake
What is the secret?
It’s a mousse, says MAC
Not like the animal; a
Mousse-like formula!
Nekkid lashes
Short, stubby lashes
Stand no chance. Fix grabs, extends,
Separates and lifts.
One layer
Every single lash
Longer, thicker, reaching up
They could touch the sky.
Two layers
Smudging, flaking — no!
So easy to remove, too.
MBB Rating…
Three layers
A+ 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S.
Just got the word from
Urban Decay; a friends and
family sale, NOW!
Nancy says
oh dear…a new MAC mascara? i do so love me my Dazzlelash. looks like i’ll need to look and see what this one does for me…
Karen says
Dazzlelash is pretty good, but so is this. Give it a try! 🙂
Sylvie says
Hi Karen, do you think this holds a curl well?
Karen says
Hi Sylvie,
It’s not as extreme as something like Estee Lauder Sumptuous bold because it relaxes them just a tad, so the lashes lift up and out as opposed to just up. I still like it though!
NINA says
Awesome haiku and awesome review. Makes me wanna go to MAC and buy it, NOW! 😀
Karen says
Hi Nina!
How are ya? Did you have a good Tuesday?
Nina says
I had a good Tues … busy at work but not bad.
How was yours? 🙂
Karen says
Same here. Relatively low stress, just lots of stuff to do. 🙂
I’m about to make some dinner… I think I’m going to make salad with some turkey.
What are you doing tonight?
NINA says
We made some etouffe with chicken and sausage for dinner. Then I deep conditioned my hair and watched Lost. Totally low key ….
Hope you had a good evenin!!! 😉

Karen B says
I know, I was very happily surprised when I checked my receipt 🙂

T says
My, those lashes reach
To the top of your forehead
Mascara da bomb!
Karen says
LOLOLOL!!!
You are such a poet, T!
makeup morsels says
hahah I love your haiku reviews. So between this and plush lash which one wins?
.-= makeup morsels’s last blog post… Shimmery Taupe Nails =-.
Karen says
This one! It flakes less, and my lashes look and feel less crispy.
makeup morsels says
good to know 🙂 this one’s going on my mac list then
.-= makeup morsels’s last blog post… Shimmery Taupe Nails =-.
Karen says
I am still kinda shocked at the price… MAC mascaras are still surprisingly affordable. Let’s hope they keep it that way *crosses fingers*.
What else is your MAC list?
makeup morsels says
I know! Drugstore mascara prices are practically even with Mac now, it’s ridiculous. loll so many things are on my Mac list but at the top are the Lustreglass in Spring Bean, this, and Blacktrack fluidline. I have the Sonia Kashuk cream liner and while it’s nice, it doesn’t quite do it for me. Speaking of which, I have to remember to go to Target and pick up that bent eyeliner brush you reviewed. Want!

Melissa says
I was so upset when they got rid of Loud Lash…that was my perfect mascara, but this softened the blow a little bit. I love the way it goes on.
Karen says
I never tried Loud Lash… I’m glad to hear you like this mascara, though. 🙂
kypris says
Ooh, and very natural-looking too! I may invest… I need a new one (Clarins is clumpy on me 🙁 ) and Lancome is very expensive…
Karen says
Bummer that the Clarins one didn’t work for you — I love that one for volume at the base.
Isn’t it shocking how expensive mascaras are now?? $13 is downright cheap!
Jen says
Oh snap! I am all over that F&F sale! UD is my favorite brand, EVAR.
Karen says
Hot! What are ya gonna pick up?
Jen says
A couple Stardust shadows (waiting for Bobby Dazzle to be back in stock!), S&M eyeshadow, the Stereophonic eyeliner set… maybe a few more liners. Hmm, that looks pricey… I might have to put a limit on myself.
Karen says
Ha, I had that same convo with myself earlier today. I want, um, all the Heavy Metal Liners. Yikes.
Jen says
I want all the Stardust shadows! Ugh! I’m playing the “fill up the shopping cart, then empty it” game. Fun.
Lindsay says
You’re way too creative
.-= Lindsay’s last blog post… My Very Small MAC Lippie Collection =-.
Karen says
Dude, honestly I wouldn’t mind more left brain action in my life. I could use it!
Diana S. says
Urban Decay is my second favorite Make up brand (MAC first!)! Yipee on the discount! I want that new pinkish nude pocket rocket lip gloss they have so here is my chance to get it at a cheaper price!
I like the wand on this mascara but I love my Rimmel Sexy curvesmascara the most!
Karen says
Ooh I trubs with that wand for some reason! I think I might be just terribly uncoordinated.
What are your favorite Urban Decay products? I loooove Eden primer (this is a new thing) and the Heavy Metal Glitter liners.
Diana S. says
I love the eyeshadaow palettes (Book of shadows 1&2)! And my favorite is the Primer potion (the original) . I still haven’t tried the Eden primer but I hope to get it soon!
Babybubblz says
So impressed with your haikus! Love it!
Karen says
Aww, thanks Babybubblz. Gotta love “word economy.”
How’s your Tuesday been?
Ginger says
Have you tried the Covergirl Lash Blast? If so, how does this MAC mascara compare? (I only have a couple of things MAC…I’m slowly becoming a convert 😉 Thanks for all the info and tips!! You rock! 🙂
Arianne says
Hey Karen! This looks like a great all-around mascara. Maybe just what I’m looking for… speaking of which…
I was hoping you could help me with my mascara search. I’m looking for a non-waterproof, curling, volumizing, and lengthening mascara. LOL, it sounds impossible, I know. I could forego the length, but I need the rest. The only mascaras that don’t uncurl my lashes are waterproof formulas, but I find them too harsh on my lashes to wear everyday. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance!
Denny says
I am currently using this mascara and I SOOOOOO love this stuff too. From the first application, it was love at first swipe. lol
Gabrielle says
I haven’t heard amazing things about MAC mascaras, but this does look good. It might be worth a try…love the haikus, as well! 🙂
Audrey says
I’m so bummed that Eden UDPP isn’t available on the Urban Decay site! 🙁
Polish Earthgirl says
Oh wow! I am uber impressed, specially with that wee little price tag! MAC here I come!!

Morgan says
Amazing mascara! Loved the hiku! What kind of camera do you use that is THAT in focus at THAT close. I must know…
Trisha says
Love, love, love MAC Studio Fix!! A must have if you’re looking for a thickening mascara! Loved it the first time I applied! Doesn’t flake, yet comes off easy and makes your lashes look so full! The way I like it 🙂
Aleksis says
This reminded me a lot of Bare Escentuals buxom lash but I was able to get way more volume from that one..I do however love pairing this with other thicker mascaras!
.-= Aleksis’s last blog post… Current wishlist 4-4-10 =-.
kirsty says
I am impressed! 3 layers and no cakiness! I also love the natural look. It’s so easy to go overboard when you’ve been graced with long lashes. I may have to give this one a try 🙂
irini says
i love your creativity 😀 may i ask if this mascara i waterproof?
DallasBrownEyes says
I have been using this one every day since it came out a couple of months ago. I love it!!! I do have to work a bit to remove it, but the upside is that it stays put throughout long days (sometimes 14+ hours from the time I put it on to the time I wash it off!) Great product!
mkdallas says
Thank God I got a glimpse of Tabs in this post…been jonesing for his royal hawtness for several days now! I just bought (of course) a new mascara but will def give this one a try. I hate clumpy, thickening mascaras, but it looks like this one does a great job of lengthening and defining with only one coat. I’ve hauled so much from all the spring collections lately that I’m trying to beat the UPS man to the door so my husband doesn’t see the packages. Have a great day and rub Tabs on his fuzzy head for me.
Kim says
Love the Haiku, Karen! I’m very devoted to Lancome’s Hypnose. How do you think MAC’s compares? The price is sure right!
lesley says
ZOMG this review makes me happy 🙂 both for the haiku and the fact that my sister (in LA) included this in a care package she is sending to me this week! now I really can’t wait to get my haaaaaaaands on it!! <3
Salsa and Alex wave hello! Hope Tabs is stayin' fierce as per usual 😉
loyda says
Hi Karen,
i was wondering if you recomend any good liquid foundation that dont look cakey
that covers and won’t disappear at the end of the day. i was doing some searching myself and i found some good feedbacks on
Dior skin forever extreme wear flawless makeup
Shu Uemera face architect smooth fluid foundation
Duwop foundation of youth and Shi Seido the makeup dual balancing foundation.
But still not sure which one to try first.
If you’ve tried any of these or heard anything positive please let me know.
thanks =)
Marisol says
I bought this mascara to replace my Dior Show when i ran out earlier this year and it’s really great. I really like what it does to my lashes. Will probably repurchase in the future.
.-= Marisol’s last blog post… Europe here I come! =-.
Jenny says
I was wondering if you liked this mascara or the waterproof estee lauder one you reviewed a few weeks ago. I have fairly oily lids and I would prefer something that didn’t budge. I’ve generally not had a good time with mascara because of the lids and I was wondering what you’d suggest (maybe something else?)
Sugarenia says
I may be doing something wrong. Bought this the other day, but it’s so cakey!
It just sticks my lashes together, especially on my right eye (don’t ask why, dunno :P)
I love the price tag, but I have to be extra careful with it or else it looks all clumpy on my eyes.
Also, when I try to remove it with Clinique Take the Day off it just smears the whole face with gooey grey stuff. Thankfully it just goes away thoroughly after rinsing.

aishwarya gulati says
another winner by mac..though one coat does nothing for me,as i have very scanty lashes,two or three coats really build up the volume.no clumping what-so-ever.not my absolute favorite but a total steal for the price!
nettie209 says
OMG can’t wait to try!!!!!!!!!!!
