Mascara. Diorshow OR YSL faux cils

Any opinions?

Diorshow if I had to choose between the two but I've been getting results using Lancôme definicils after curling my eyelashes. Adding a second coat gives lots of volume but and its less likely to clump.

Neither. Dior if I had to choose. Nothing comes close to the Armani ones though IMO.

Gah. Can't get Armani here. I had to buy. Went for YSL shocking.

Lol at the OTT names for mascara

Lancome Definicils for me - it's the only one that I don't have to wipe half the brush off onto a tissue before use.

iMatter · 23/09/2015 19:13

Definicils here too.

If I need a seriously oomphy look I use primer first.

Madbengalmum · 23/09/2015 19:14

Used to go for diorshow, but now its like water. I Like lancome now

I have moved on from lancome I think I've done all of them
the last one I had was YSL baby doll or whatever and I quite like that

Dior is much better than YSL, Extase is better than Iconic.

I used to use Iconic for everyday and I've gone back to Hypnose.

iMatter · 23/09/2015 20:25

I've tried pretty much everything and always end up back with Lancôme.

I'm going to start looking around again.

A friend of mine had her eyelashes permed and dyed. They looked fab.

Sometimes I wonder if we are all falling for this mascara hype

Oh oh oh what's this Armani one? I'm stuck on YSL, Guerlain or Chanel at the moment but will be going through LHR next Wednesday so need to know what beauty supplies to pick up. Live in Caribbean and hard to get stuff...

Tell me what to get fellow style and beautiers!!! 35 (soon to be 36), live in hot climate, staving off wrinkles and sun damage - need wise directions before I indulge in Botox!!

Sorry brendaandesdie - totally hijacked your thread. Apologies!

SorrelForbes · 24/09/2015 09:42

This is the Armani one I've just finished.

squoosh · 24/09/2015 10:40

I think I've tried them all and I always end up cap in hand knocking on Max Factor Masterpiece's door asking her to take me back.

SorrelForbes · 25/09/2015 08:13

I'm using a Boots one at the moment (red glittery tube) and it's smudges everywhere! I'm low on funds so I think I will buy a Max Factor Masterpiece today. Thanks for the reminder squoosh, it's a great mascara.

Well the shocking was shocking.
the asstant agreed it was crap - it was just like they had put it so it applies masses of mascara onto the brush

SO I returned it and got dior Extase instead
