That doesn't clump together and flake. I've just wasted my money on a revlon mascara advertised by Michelle keagan which was very think and clumpy :-/

Benefit Rollerlash. I have tried many different ones and this is the first one that I have loved so much I didn't baulk at the price.

My favourite is Clinique Naturally Glossy mascara, it doesn't irritate and stays put all day. I've used it for years and years, it's not cheap but is a brilliant product.

The new Bourjois one, Volume Reveal is great! It's the triangular tube with a mirror built in on the side. Such a great mascara for the price!

YvaineStormhold · 16/10/2016 19:53

Seconding that. Dark Brown Rollerlash.

SlinkyVagabond · 16/10/2016 19:58

Not the new Rimel Glamlash one, in the orange tube for sure. Touted to come off with warm water, comes off lashes fine, but not the skin around it. Looked like a blinking panda.

YSL Faux Cils. A bit pricey, but worth it.

Stila Major Major for me.

Destinysdaughter · 16/10/2016 20:03

Agree Benefit Rollerlash is one of the best ones I've tried. I have short straight lashes and this makes them longer and more curly. I've tried lots of mascaras and have found many of them disappointing so I wholeheartedly recommend this one!

jenniuol · 16/10/2016 20:04

Another vote for rollerlash Smile

MissHemsworth · 16/10/2016 20:07

Slinky I second that on the Rimmel one, awful! Benefit 'They're Real' is my fave ATM, but Maxfactor Masterpiece Max is very good.

dannyglick · 16/10/2016 20:15

My favourite is Origins Gin Zing Brightening mascara in black.

andintothefire · 16/10/2016 20:16

Has anybody tried the Givenchy phenomen'eyes? I am trying to find a mascara that has a wand that doesn't immediately get mascara on my upper eyelid. I think I am just quite clumsy at putting it on (or often in a hurry) and I wondered if the Givenchy might be quite precise to apply and therefore avoid me putting it on in a messy way!

Sadsack76 · 16/10/2016 20:21

Mac extreme flash lash effect.

LolaStarr · 16/10/2016 20:22

I like both Benefit 'They're Real' and 'Bad Gal Lash'

ihatethecold · 16/10/2016 20:23

I always repeat buy Smashbox and Soap and Glory.
Best ones on the market.

The new orange rimmel one is pants.

MadisonAvenue · 16/10/2016 20:24

Another vote for Benefit They're Real. Looks great and lasts all day.

Pixie2015 · 16/10/2016 20:29

YSL baby doll - looks amazing sometimes they have free samples of it

emsyj · 16/10/2016 20:31

Smashbox Full Exposure. I actually like it even more than Diorshow, which is the only other mascara that I have ever repeat purchased.

Perversion by urban decay

smugmumofboys · 16/10/2016 20:40

They're Real by Benefit is excellent.

Currently using Le Volume by Chanel. £££ but lovely.

andinonthfire, I haven't tried the Givenchy one but a similar shaped one from L'Oreal many moons ago, it was very precise albeit a bit tedious. You can contemplate getting the Holika Holika Magic Pole Mascara lovely name which has the same shape wand and is only 6 quid incl. delivery from Korea (it's a bestseller there). There's a waterproof version too.
