YSL False Lash effect - yes, this is expensive, but it does everything I want it to. It gives great volume and length, can be built up for a subtle or dramatic look and it doesn't flake, smudge or melt. My holy grail mascara, marred only by the fact that it seems to dry out pretty quickly. £23.50
Lord and Berry Scuba Extreme* - If I need a waterproof mascara, this is always the one I reach for. It gives excellent length, some good volume and really doesn't budge. It removes quite easily for a waterproof mascara, but don't let that fool you, it won't let you down! £12
GOSH Growth mascara* - GOSH mascaras seem to be pretty good all round, but this one goes to the top of my list as it contains a serum that actually encourages your lashes to grow while you wear it. It is a little wet for the first week or so, but after that, two coats will give nice volume without a clumpy result.
Max Factor Masterpiece Max - I used this for a long time before making the jump to the YSL mascara and found it offered excellent lash definition, a little volume and no clumping. The waterproof version is also pretty good, but did have a tendency to be a tiny bit smudgy. £9.99
Bare Minerals Lash Domination* - Bare Minerals was never a brand I though of for mascara, but I've been really impressed by this. It gives good volume to lashes in two coats, and doesn't clump. I like the definition it gives my lashes, and is long wearing. The only downside I've found is a tiny bit of smudging when applying, but nothing more throughout the day. £16

ReplyDeleteThe Lord & Berry one sounds really interesting, not too pricey either! Xx
ReplyDeleteyes, it's really good! x
DeleteThe only one here i've tried is the YSL one and i do love it. It smudges slightly on me though. I'll definitely try out the other ones x
ReplyDeleteI think Lash Dominator is pretty cool i used it on Jayne when i was in London and i liked it it was a bit clumpy for me but i managed to get it looking good

it can be a bit clumpy, but I like the finished effect x
DeleteI am a sucker for mascara as i am always on the hunt for ones that will give me that falsies effect. I have never tried any of the ones you have mentioned but i am really eager to try the new YSL Baby Doll :D

I am loving the Lash Dominator too - stays on really well for me although dayammmmn it's messy to take off! As for the YSL mascara, this used to be my favourite mascara in the world, then Chantecaille produced Faux Cils which is similar but a better formula so doesn't dry out after a few weeks xx
ReplyDeleteoooh, I will have to try the Chantecaille one in that case x
