What mascara do you wear- need help buying a present

My sister has asked for a black mascara for her birthday, amongst a couple of other bits.

Her only specified criteria is no clumps.

We don't spend much on birthdays normally- so preferably around £7. Is this possible?

Anyone wear an affordable mascara and recommend it?

Maybelline Illegal Length mascara is good, I use the waterproof black all the time, no clumps Smile usually around £5 on Amazon

L'oreal volume million lashes so couture in extra black (the one in the purple and gold tube) is really good and never clumps. It's about £9 but often they do buy one get one half price so could get something else for you?

The new Rimmel curling one is good and also doesn't clump and more around £7-8 I believe but not as good as the L'oreal one.

I go between the L'oreal one and Dior Show and think it is just as good.

No7 gold tube
Flutter, no clumps

Perfect, thank you. I rarely wear make up myself so wouldn't know where to start. I'll google these ones and find the best deal.

The best best best one I've tried (and use consistently above 'designer' brands, dior/benefit/Estee Lauder etc, is MaxFactor Masterpiece Max Mascara. Hands down

Clinique glossy mascara has no lumps.

Max factor masterpiece or max factor no clumps. Both are amazing.

I agree with above posters.

I use max factor masterpiece max and love it. No clumps and lasts a long time

I use a number 7 gold tube. It's brilliant. It's one that is a tube mascara, never smudges. I won't use anything else.
