Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I like Zoomlash used alone and Pro-Lash combined with Prep+Prime Lash. Prep+Prime with Zoomlash is simply "too much" and makes my lashes spikey. For best results, I never let Prep+Prime Lash dry too much before applying mascara, otherwise lashes are dry and mascara application gets difficult.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I use Elizabeth Arden's double density? i think it's called and I like it a lot, but not quite love. I want to give some other ones a try but man, there are so many out there. I'm a Chinese girl with relatively short thin lashes. I want volume and length at the same time. Any suggestions? one high-end and one drugmart. Thanks

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I just tried Clarins Wonder Volume mascara, it's pretty good. It's a thickening mascara with a fairly large brush.

I agree - I love Dior Show. I use Mac prep & prime underneath for a more dramatic look.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
Shu Basic! I just received mine in the mail today and I LOVE IT. My lashes are already long and all i have to do is curl them and apply shu basic. It really does hold a curl and keeps them separated, without the clumps. I love how i can reapply later on without any clumps forming on my lashes and the waterproof gel formula is amazing  . This is just the mascara i need, very lightweight, which wont weigh my lashes down, buildable, if you want to put a little more on for a night out, and waterproof, yet it still keeps my lashes feeling nice a soft and not brittle. Although it is a little expensive, i think its worth it and hands down the best mascara, better than my Lancome Hypnose.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
As far as MAC goes, I love Fibre Rich. I've tried a few other MAC mascaras, and I have to say - I absolutely HATE Zoomlash. I've got super long lashes, so maybe it wasn't the best choice for me(?), but it's also so darn clumpy. Fibre Rich though, I adore. Sometimes I don't even bother with my curler. :X
I have to say that Diorshow is also one of my favorites. I looove it.
I'd like to try Imju Fiberwig mascara. I'll probably pick it up soon. Heard a lot of good things about it. Hmmm.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
Don't really have any favs yet, but my lashes are long but kind of thin. I know this sounds stupid but I use a curled brush I got at a supply store and dip it in vaseline then wipe it off. I use it on my lashes then curl them, while im curling them I use a blow dryer on high heat to set the curl. then I coat them with Maybeline great lash in very black, then curl again. I know its cheap but it works pretty well. I get a lot of compliments on my lashes.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
Cover Girl Lash Exact

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
im always searching for the perfect mascara!!
i adore Diorshow but it can get a bit clumpy. also i found that it seems to dry out rather quickly, and although mine is definitely black it looks more brown in the tube/on the brush. another fantastic, couldnt-live-without-it mascara is Too Faced's Lash Injection
to get really dramatic lashes i do this:
-first i use Chanel Inimitable mascara [i love the brush with the plastic bristles, really separates the lashes and covers them all]
-then i do a coat of MAC Zoomlash in Zoomblack
-then i coat just the tips in Maybelline..i forget its name but its in the pink and green tube..in blackest black
-and thats it!
