Best of the ultra-cheap mascaras? Under £3 please!

Boots Natural Collection (curling, lengthening, building) v MUA v other cheap brands? Which are the best in your opinion? My lashes are black and thick but short, so Boots Natural Collection lash lengthening looks like it might be best.

I have bought this (natural collection) in the past but where I am staying now Boots don't have that part of their range, sadly. I think there is some good stuff there-I particularly like the lipstick and the mascara

Oh I like the other Natural Collection bits, I was wondering about the mascaras though - mostly what the differences between them are.

I've tried all 3 of the Natural Collection mascaras over the years and can't say there was a massive noticeable difference between them, but I find them pretty good for staying power and not looking like a panda by 1pm!

Boots natural collection is pretty good

Natural Collection in the best of the cheapies IMO, but I always used to layer it over another cheap mascara as it seemed quite thin.

The Miss Sporty one with a curled wand (I think it's pink) is brilliant. I don't know if it still exists, but it had great staying power and gave voluminous lash flicks.

Thanks! I find more high-powered mascaras are too thickening for my lashes.
