I had to post this, having shelled out £20ish for hypnose last time!
I've just bought NYX mascara, for £3.95, here:

in dark brown, and my goodness it's amazing! Held the curl ALL day, lengenthed, and looked just as good at the end of the day as it did at the beginning... all in all it made my lashes look pretty... that's pretty much exactly what I want from a mascara. I've seen it even cheaper on ebay!
happy
