Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I love, love, love Tarte's Lights, Camera, Lashes! It has the perfect sized wand and not only lengthens my lashes but adds volume as well. And, it doesn't straighten them after curling. The first time I used this my mother thought I had on false eyelashes.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I love Maybelline Lash Stylist! It's my favorite...I've tried Estee Lauder, Lancome, L'Oreal's, allooot but nothing compares to Maybelline's mascaras for me. I really want to try Dior tho to see if it can compete.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I found this one on a whim when Sephora gave it away as a free smaple with a $50 purchase..Tarte's "Lights, Camera, Lashes!". The BEST and MOST AMAZING mascara which is a diamond in the rough. Tarte? Trust me, it's AMAZING

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I don't have an HG mascara, but my current favorites are Maybelline Lash Stylist & Maybelline Define-A-Lash Volume.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I have two-
Volum' express by maybelline but i find that gets gluggy (can't figure what i'm doing so wrong  and -
Fatale 3D brush by Lancome
Unfortunately we don't have Sephora here in Australia so tarte's 'light camera lashes' seems a bit out of my reach!!

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
My whole makeup life, I've never found a mascara I love and can't stop using. As much as I love everything else that is MAC, I don't think their mascaras are that great at all.
I think I've finally found true love with Cover Girl's new Lash Blast!! LOVE IT!!

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I love Lash Exact by Covergirl. I find it has pretty good staying power, doesn't clump or flake off for me.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I actually really love MAC's LOUD LASH except its really difficult to take off.
I accidentally found Rimmel's "Extra Super Lash" when I went to Vegas forgot my mascara and bought the cheapest one at CVS. Wow. For $2 this thing is truly amazing. I always had a thing for L'Oreal's Feather Lash because the clumping is NIL with this mascara and its sooooo smooooooooooth.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
My fave of all time is L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Mascara, been a fave of mine for years and years (the carbon one is new, but the blackest black is what iused to use)
I've wanted to try dior show forever, as well now I want to try the tarte one.

Oh, and I don't know if this is only because I got the cheap mini one, but my brush is starting to shed (I've had it for 2 months).
Either way, I'll replace it in a few weeks. It might run out sooner than that, it's been used every day for 2 months. Plus, I like the size.

I didn't like this one that much but for different reasons. I have the mini as well, but it seems like I cannot get any product out of it. I feel like I have to put on about 20 coats to look like one coat of my Tarte. I also feel that it straightens my lashes. Did you have a problem with this at all? TIA.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
My favourite mascara is *discontinued*! Dior Maximeyes isn't available at any of the counters i went to, so it's either DC'd or just damn hard to find. DiorShow is a decent substitute, but my second-favourite is Clinique High Impact mascara.
MAC mascaras just don't do much for me...

I don't have the Benefit mascara, but I did buy Too Faced Lash Injection in the mini size. I always felt that there was hardly any product on the brush! Usually you can see mascara on a brush but I did not. I like the mascara, but I felt I didn't see the WOW everyone was talking about.
I may not buy another mini mascara again.
Has anyone tried Bourjois Volume Glamour mascara?
