Where can I find a decent mascara?

[justanotheryoungmother]

Hello everyone

I have experimented with lots of different mascaras, and whilst sometimes they are good, I have yet to find a 'staple' mascara, so I was wondering what you would recommend 😊

I've tried so many brands but have yet to find one that I love. My most recent try-outs were : Benefit Cosmetics Bad Girl Lash (always smudged after an hour or two and gave me panda eyes) and Soap and Glory Thick and Fast (seemed to clump all of my lashes??)

I'm more than willing to shell out for a decent mascara, but so far I haven't found one that I want to keep using, but I don't want to keep buying new ones after spending the money on one that's meant to be decent

What would you recommend?

Max Factor Masterpiece Transform is amazing. Makes them look good and doesn't clump.

Benefit They're Black has been great for me. I tried Lancôme but it gave me panda eyes even with primer.

I've used Lancôme Hypnose waterproof in black for about 20 years!!

Benefit Rollerlash is my favourite of all time. Otherwise I'd go Lancome Definicils or Max Factor.

Another Lancôme fan here. I don't use anything else.

Honestly, I use natural collection by boots. £1.99 and they do different ranges (lash length, build, definition etc) best mascara I have ever used.

Clinique High Impact is my regular.
It gives great definition and volume, doesn't smudge at all and it washes off so easily, no eye rubbing required at all, which means you're not damaging the lashes or the delicate skin around your eyes. Truly love it!

Estée Lauder Sumptuous Extreme. Only mascara that I find makes my lashes look fanned out and naturally full- have tried most going and I end up with spiky clogs! Is well worth the price (also you usually get a ton of points when you buy this at boots which is a plus)

Having tried so many, I finally came across Lancôme Hypnose and have never looked back. It's fantastic. Wouldn't use anything else now!

I tried various Lancome mascaras for a while but found they mostly gave me panda eyes.

I meant Benefit They're Real before, not They're Black. Doh.
