Just that really. Preferably under a tenner, but I could possibly stretch to £15 for a miracle one that would transform every aspect of my life.

This Bourjois one
I absolutely swear by this one. So many people have asked if I'm wearing false eyelashes when I wear it. It's quite heavy but doesn't flake, smudge or irritate.

MousyMouse · 04/03/2013 21:49

the boots no17 are ok

Toadspawn · 04/03/2013 21:54

Maybelline falsies

DialsMavis · 04/03/2013 21:55

At the moment I have Bourjois volume glamour which is crap, too natural pour moi. I was surprised as I usually like their stuff. That one looks good though.

Mousy which no17 is best do you think?

I've just remembered I used to like L'oreal Telescopic, but willing to take recommendations

Rimmel Scandaleyes is clumpy

Avoid the no7 Fanomenal one. It doesn't smudge but the brush is shut and just leaves me with clumpy eyelashes. Hmm

I always use the pink one with the green lid, v cheep & makes lashes look great, think it's maybeline or max factor

MousyMouse · 04/03/2013 22:05

I think I have the max volume one atm.
it's good, good volume without looking too unnatural. doesn't smudge and is easy to get off.

ThatVikRinA22 · 04/03/2013 22:08

max factor masterpiece max or masterpiece original. i always go back to them - even after trying really expensive ones.

boodles · 04/03/2013 22:09

Natural collection one is fab and two quid

pettyprudence · 04/03/2013 22:09

maybelline green and pink one. i have given up trying to find another mascara Grin

CoffeeandCremeEggs · 04/03/2013 22:10

I love the Boots 17 Wild Curls. Better than the No7 - mainly because No7 keep producing decent mascaras with ridiculous pointless brushes.

cerealqueen · 04/03/2013 22:11

This stuff is from W7 surprisingly good and so cheap!!

Parisbanana · 04/03/2013 22:12

I really don't like all the super-thick-long-volume types of mascara...just want one that gives a bit of definition and colour. The best I've found is from M&S and only cost £5. Perfect for every day use.

ThatVikRinA22 · 04/03/2013 22:12

check out the reviews
lots agree!

DontForgetTheLightAlesLawrence · 04/03/2013 22:17

Maybelline Falsies here too. I always go back to it.

bulletwithbutterflywings · 04/03/2013 22:21

I like the natural collection thickening one for every day.

MiffieandMaddy · 04/03/2013 22:27

Max factor 2000 calories, tried every other up to £20 budget, this is by far the best. Much better than other mac factor ones as well.

OneLittleLady · 04/03/2013 22:33

I like Benefit BadGal in black for nights out and Dainty Doll's Shape Up Little Suzie (brown) for daytime wear. I am blessed with naturally long and dark lashes though so I don't need anything much more than a bit of volume adding Grin

DialsMavis · 04/03/2013 22:35

I don't want to look
Natural! Wink
