Well having the same desire as you I have just bought Prescriptives ' Beyond Long' as it was reccomended to me. Have yet to try it will do tomorrow and let you know.

I recommend the new Bobbi Brown No Smudge mascara

or

Lancome's Definicils

neither are clumpy.

I like the Chanel one too but I also like Maybelline and it's a lot cheaper
the one in the hideous green and pink tube (they should fix that)

I bought a lancome foundation recently. Did not like it.

Now normally I like Clarins all the way, but their foundations are smelly

CodGuevara · 09/08/2006 21:22

no news ont he fabo vitamumiere then

Gillian76 · 09/08/2006 21:25

Wish I'd bought that tbh. this one was for combi skin but it's naff imo. Sinks in to my pores and makes me look dreadful

smurfgirl · 09/08/2006 22:16

Rimmel mascaras v.good.

chopsolata · 09/08/2006 22:28

i bought a rimmel one on the wkend cos I'm too tight to splash out and its the best mascara I've ever had, no clumps, no spidery legs, lovely

sophabeszabo · 09/08/2006 22:31

so i love the one that they say the films are of...you know that stupid ad with the eyelashes all aroudn the memoires of a geisha except not taht particualr one....errr...2000 calorie....errr.max factor phew thank f for that.

right i like 2000 calorie as it does lengthen....but it also clumps....the reason i think it is good is the brush is nice and thick....so would i like the chanel one then???

i don't like the maybelline brush.

LaDiDaDi · 09/08/2006 23:12

i have 2 at the moment, the geisha max factor one which is quite nice and a maybelline one, called something like lash stylist. I t has a nice brush that is mre like a comb and some limits lumpyclumpys.

thewomanwhothoughtshewasahat · 09/08/2006 23:14

I went through them all over a period of a year or so - all the expensive ones, Clinique, Dior, lancome the lot and do you know what's best? Rimmel. I HATE clumps. I like something that goes on very wet and smooth with you lashes seperate and Rimmel is the only one.

thewomanwhothoughtshewasahat · 09/08/2006 23:16

I see smurfgirl agrees with me

puff · 09/08/2006 23:18

Diorshow by Christian Dior

sophabeszabo · 09/08/2006 23:44

do rimmel have more than one? and if so which one?

Clary · 09/08/2006 23:45

I just bought that Max Factor one with the fancy brush.
Have needed a new mascara for about 2 years so frankly anything would have been an improvement.
Had about 2 mins to grab one with three children running wild in Boots (up and down the aisles, heck) so I hope it was a good choice.
Seems nice and black but maybe a biiiiit clumpy?
