The Best Tubing Mascara

Your recommendations for the best tubing mascara please.
I need volume for my sensitive, lacking in number lashes.

I was coming on here to ask the same question, so I don't have the answer. In the past I've used blinc, estee lauder and No 7 tubing mascaras. I think I like no 7 the best, that's what I'm using at the moment but it's definitely on its last legs and hard to remember what it was like when it was new. Blinc came off in bits on my cheeks a bit, estee lauder was more subtle and No 7 has more volume. I've not used them at the same time though so not totally sure about this. I need to buy a new one and wondering if there's anything better than no 7?

Which No. 7 ?

I use Clinique lash power and love it. It doesn't budge and is easy to remove with water. Haven't tried any of the others though so can't compare.

Agree with Clinique - they do Lash Power and another (can't remember the name) for a more natural look.
Both fab!

Mac Opulash or Clinique or Blinc or Estee Lauder ?
I need volume.
My lashes are long but sparse Sad

I use the Estee Lauder Double wear volume one and it does seem to lengthen and thicken more than the Clinique or No.7 ones.

Jakadaal · 22/02/2016 20:57

I use the boots No 7 stay perfect. It's good at lengthening but could do with more volume for a night time make up. Blinc has had good reviews so was going to give it a try

Clinique high impact lash curling mascara.

I love tubing mascaras sooo much! The best one is Too Faced Lash Injection, but I got it years ago in America and find it hard to get hold of.

An amazing one for the price is Superdrug own band B. mascaras. There's a few different lengthening / volumising versions. On the website it's says its "half price" but that's a load of crap as I've never seen it for £10 before, it's always around a fiver. Bargain!!

Juliecloud · 22/02/2016 21:21

I've used blinc and a Clinique one. I preferred Blinc but it did flake off a bit by the end of the day.

Kennington · 22/02/2016 21:23

No7 gold tube applied to both sides of the lashes
Never moves, great volume

Kevin Aucoin curling mascara... it's amazing and I will never use anything else! I got the tip from here.

What's a tubing mascara?

Pixilicious · 22/02/2016 22:21

hollyisalovelyname · 22/02/2016 22:58

It's mascara that forms tubes around your eyelashes and comes off with warm water.
It means you don't have to use eye make up remover which I find I can be allergic to.

Silverhoney which Superfrug mascara is it please?

Tsmummy08 · 23/02/2016 10:00

Clinique Lash Power is great...

I tried the Superdrug ones, (B. Volume, B. All) but the brushes were far too thick/wide and I ended up with product all over my eyelids when applying...

bigbuttons · 23/02/2016 13:59

I like the no 7 one. It doesn't budge but is easy to get off. When that runs out i might try the l'oread one, just to compare.

hollyisalovelyname · 23/02/2016 15:52

Thank you

Avoid the Trish McEvoy ones. Good in that they're tubing (two of her range are at least) but you can't get volume with either of them.

Indecisivejo · 23/02/2016 16:22

I just returned the Loreal one because it flaked all over my face and it came off with cleanser which it shouldn't do

OldestStory · 23/02/2016 16:31

Eyeko "The Skinny" is great. Natural looking but can build it: I've been asked a couple of times recently if I have false lashes on!

Dd swears by it too as it does not smudge or run.

hollyisalovelyname · 25/02/2016 17:23

Anyone used amac Opulash?
