Just wondered, are any of them worth buying with my voucher? I have dark but thin lashes. Cheers!

i don't rate them myself, spend one voucher on one that flaked after an hour!

also today bought the eye make up remover, also crap :(

Born2BRiiiled · 15/06/2012 21:41

Oh dear....

i might just have freaky oily eyelashes though Grin

Born2BRiiiled · 15/06/2012 21:45

Or not. My eyelashes are the bane of my appearance. Nothing really does what I want. False ones maybe?

There's a new one out with some type of weird "revolutionary" coats all lashes, brush. Haven't tried that one.

I've tried several of them but think they're overpriced.

I have Exquisite Curl, I really like it. I wouldn't buy it if you have sensitive eyes though, I thought I was going to have to stop using it at first but my eyes must have got used to it!

nymets · 15/06/2012 21:47

i really like max factor masterpiece and use them all the time, there is a good serum for eyelashes will look for link - it's about £50 though

I have sensitive eyes and didn't get on with No 7 at all.

Born2BRiiiled · 15/06/2012 21:52

Not looking good so far!

This is a bit depressing; I've just used a voucher to buy their navy mascara (after hearing about it on here :(

Having said that, I like their eye makeup remover (the one you have to shake to mix).

I kind of hate the vouchers, I end up having to use every single one (which is about 3 a week).

Their liquid eyeliners are really good, and I love their lipcare cream.

nymets · 15/06/2012 22:03

the only no7 product i use all the time is the translucent loose face powder which is fantastic and lip colour in chic

Born2BRiiiled · 15/06/2012 22:11

Mmm. Could do with some powder actually.

Their stick concealer and stick blusher are my staples. Agree about the eye make up remover too.

MissBeehivingUnderTheMistletoe · 15/06/2012 22:24

I like Exquisite Curl Smile

RoxyRobin · 15/06/2012 22:42

I rate the translucent loose powder, too - have used it for years.

No7 had a lengthening mascara ages ago that I really liked, but it was discontinued. Since then I've found all the others I've tried very disappointing.

Krumbum · 16/06/2012 08:12

Exquisite curl is my favourite mascara, I love the brush. Lash adapt is very good too. I find they both make my dead straight blonde eyelashes look nice and full.

Nagoo · 16/06/2012 08:15

I like them, I have the exceptional definition (?) one with a brush that's got a 'short side' for lower lashes. :)

Don't have a problem with flaking, it must depend on the person I suppose :)

ledkr · 16/06/2012 08:17

I just bought the new one and its lovely.I have got very enhanced rapid lashed eyelashes though.

shrimponastick · 16/06/2012 08:19

I bought the No 7 Navy mascara after reading about it on here.

I am not overly impressed - I have had better mascaras, and it wasn't cheap - about £11?

Oh, and I forgot to use my voucher it was tucked in my bag.... grrrrrr....

Eliza22 · 16/06/2012 11:07

LEDKR..... I have just started on the Rapidlash quest for lash beauty. Tell me would you, how long did it take to work? Was it a big improvement or did you have pretty good lashes already? Sorry to hijack Blush

Born2BRiiiled · 16/06/2012 11:18

No need to apologise for hijacking, always interested in lash improvement myself!

eliza it takes ages,just when you start to get frustrated it works.Id say about 6 weeks,just stick with it and you will see.I had very average eyelashes before,dark but quite short. I get comments on them now.

Eliza22 · 16/06/2012 17:12

Ooooh, lovely! Am off on holiday in 8 weeks or so and want them just to be "better" than they are.

I'll keep at it, then! Thanks

SpringGoddess · 16/06/2012 18:36

I love the Extreme Length waterproof mascara - goes on beautifully, no clumps and I often get clumps and it stays put all day...it really is rather fantastic!
