Natural looking mascara for world's finest lashes!

OK, by finest, I mean thin. I am desperate for a non flaky or clumpy mascara. My lashes are so thin they easily look overloaded. Have tried lancome, but no joy. Quite like a couple of tunnel pnes, but nothing has really done the job. ANY ideas? Thanks

Have you tried Lancome Definicils? Much nicer and more natural looking than Hypnose. Otherwise, try Max Factor.

When the Max Factor Lash Extensions (not False Lash Effect) mascara came out I had high hopes of big fluffy lashes but found it was very fine and natural looking so that might work for you. I use it now when I want my model/client to look like she just has a bit of colour to her lashes rather than a full on mascara'd look. If that's too natural then the Masterpiece Max one is really nice too. I find the ones with the spikey rubber brushes a lot easier to control the coverage of mascara and avoid clumping too.

clinique used to do a naturally glossy mascara (always used to be in their bonus gifts), which was very light and natural looking. not sure if they still sell it though?

Am I the only one in the world who actually hates Clinique mascaras?

Dr Hauschka, pref in Brown for most natural look - altho may be too natural for you as it really doesn't look like you have anything on your lashes, it just colours them. I used to like Clinique naturally glossy but found this one to be better. And it's all organic so you can feel very virtuous!

Have you ever tried having your lashes tinted black and then just curling them and wearing clear mascara? Sometimes with really fine lashes that can't 'carry' mascara, that can work well. Especially if you also use subtle eyeliner right at the roots.

I hate Clinique mascaras too, smudge really bad and don't make my eyelashes/eyes look any better!
I like Estee Lauder sumptous thickening mascara, but I think the bigger the better with mascara so you may need a different one for a natural look! L'Oreal ones are good too.

I really like Boots No7 Extreme Length. It's very natural, not at all clumpy, really separates the lashes and adds a little length too.

I use Ojon treatment mascara which is double ended and has a conditioning treatment at one end which you use twice a day to help thicken your lashes and the other end has a fabulous mascara. Highly recommended!
