Collection 2000 recently changed their branding to just 'Collection' which I think is a great move as I think it makes it sound much more elegant and edgy. I have never fully trusted Collections make up as a budget brand. But this product is surprisingly one of my favourite mascaras of all!

For a budget make-up brand, I think the packaging is nice, with a very long, very sharp cornered tube. It really works well with the concept of having long 'skyscraper' lashes. The monochrome styling may even look higher end than a lot of other make up products?
* Application *
The brush it self is long and thin with one side of bristles being tiny, short bristles while the other side has slightly longer bristles with a slight curve. The brush itself is a great design, allowing you to utilise each side for different uses. I use the shorter side to get really close to the waterline, and zig-zagging upwards to grab every single lash. While I use the longer sides for the ends of the lashes to give that 'flutter' effect. The comb-like bristles really separate your lashes, giving a totally clump free
* Overall *
This product is awesome! Especially for the price of £4.99 at Boots. It's very similar to Rimmel's Lash Accelerator, not quite a dupe, but very similar especially in the style of the brush. This is a great budget mascara which really separates lashes well with it's comb like brush as well as the mascara setting quite hard.
