Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I've tried several low and mid end mascaras over the years and my favorites are MAC Mascara X and Too Faced Lash Injection. Mascara X for everyday (great formula, no clumpage whatsoever) and TFLI for nights/drama. I have got to try the Pinpoint version!

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I know this isn't everybody's favorite mascara, but I LOVE L'oreal's Telescopic mascara. It's my go to marscara everyday. I put a base of Smashbox's eyelash primer underneath for night time or for a more dramatic look. It makes my eyelashes look so long, love it!

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I use Cover Girl Volume Exact for everyday and Lancome Definicils for night out. I have long lashes already so though I love Definicils, I think I'll stick to CG from now on, it works just fine for me.

Cover Girl Volume Exact. I'm just too cheap to pay for expensive mascara.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
Neutrogena Weightless Volume Mascara. Doesn't add lots of volume, but doesn't clump or smudge on me!

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
ok.. my new fav.. Oscillation by Lancome... I almost drove away from the store twice because I was....undecided about getting it and I turned around halfway thru the parking lot and marched in and bought it. I almost fainted at its 34 dollar price tag ( who doesn't faint when they go to a cosmetic counter these days?.. shiites expensive!) but you know what? it does what it claims to do. I was actually amazed that it was not a gimmick. It makes my lashes long, clump free and beautifully full. Wipes off easily with eye make up remover and the left behinds wash eye easily with soap and warm water. Hands down the BEST mascara I have ever used.
My second fav (and what i was using before I bought Oscillation) is L'oreal masacara in Voluminous and Voluminous Naturelle. I graduated to Naturelle after many years of using regular Vol. I love the brush on Naturelle and it does have staying power and a great price. The only nuisance thing I see is at bedtime with make up removal.. it can be hard to get off the lashes. Now I have two mascaras to choose from.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I'm an asian with flimsy lashes so I need something that keeps my curl and at the same time make my lashes dramatic.
The only ones that work for me and keeps my curls are
Maybelline Lash discovery
Maybelline Great Lash
Lash Discovery is by far my favorite.
it comes with the smallest applicator which gets every lash.
I recommend the waterproof. I feel like waterproof ones keep my curls better than the regular ones.

Re: Your Favorite Mascara?
I used DiorShow for years but I started using Dior Iconic and its the best stuff EVER! It lengthens, seperates, and makes them thicker. The best part is that it curls them sooooo well. I still use an eyelash curler but thats out of habit.

I agree, also if a mascara can be described as "well behaved" this one is it for me. No clumpiness, no flaking, just perfection!
