Desperate for a new one and need recommendations!

I am loving a By Terry Lash Expert one - it's sort of a duo, one ordinary brush that then twists into a spiral which apparently increases volume. It's the only mascara I've ever had that really does add volume and drama while keeping lashes looking natural and not smudging or flaking. It stays on all day but it's easy to get off in the evening. Not cheap but only a bit more expensive than say Benefit and FAR better.

Le Volume De Chanel.

tshirtsuntan · 24/05/2018 18:05

Eyeko black magic.

mycatplotsdeath · 24/05/2018 18:07

Lancôme

cad186 · 24/05/2018 18:18

Lancome hypnose volume a porter

JaneJeffer · 24/05/2018 18:21

Benefit bad gal

ChesterFuckingDraws · 24/05/2018 18:34

Benefit they're real. Doesn't flake and doesn't leave me with panda eyes.

evilharpy · 24/05/2018 19:16

Clinique chubby. But Lancome Hypnose is also lovely.

BusterGonad · 24/05/2018 19:26

Benefit Roller Lash.

suze28 · 24/05/2018 20:03

Chanel Le Volume without a doubt

yolandafostersfridge · 24/05/2018 20:05

Chanel Le Volume. Worth every single penny and that’s coming from someone who is a massive fan of drugstore mascaras!

frasier · 24/05/2018 20:05

Benefit, they’re real. Best mascara ever. I really do get asked if my lashes are real lol!

threefeet · 24/05/2018 20:08

Lancôme Hypnose.

ZenNudist · 24/05/2018 20:13

Dior iconic

trinitybleu · 24/05/2018 20:13

Ooohhh, Lancome hypnose volume a porter.... But only just. Also love Younique Epic but can never remember to order it soon enough so often end up having an emergency trip to Boots for the Lancome.

redfragglebiker · 24/05/2018 20:14

Lancome Hypnose for sure. I've had to give mine up as I can't justify the cost on maternity pay and I'm gutted.

Eenymeeny123 · 24/05/2018 20:18

Collection super lash, was recommended on here and it's fab

RiskIt4Biscuit · 24/05/2018 20:22

Estee Lauder Double Wear or Clinique Lash Power.
Both tubing mascaras, so they don't smudge or flake on me.

stoplickingthetelly · 24/05/2018 20:32

Lancome hypnose here too, but it's so expensive and drys up quickly.

WindyBee · 24/05/2018 21:18

Primark £1. seriously! I used the free Clinique ones when i got them and decided to buy one for a change. Its the clumpiest cloggiest mascara i have ever used.
I gave it to my 14 yr old and went back to Primark.

Moonflower12 · 24/05/2018 21:24

Lancôme here too!

friendlyflicka · 24/05/2018 21:24

I am a real make up snob and have had all the expensive ones for years: dior, chanel, YSL, Guerlain etc always.

And then recently got a Max Factor False Lash Effect. Much much better than any of them. Honestly.

I am still sticking to the rest of my brands because it is pure pleasure for me to buy luxury make up, but couldn't find a mascara I was happy with.

Maybe partly to do with suddenly needing waterproof. This stays on, but can also be removed without panda eyes the next day. It doesn't go clumpy and it costs £10 less than all the others I have been buying

FinallyGotAnIPhone · 24/05/2018 21:25

Any Lancôme one. Max factor if you don’t want to pay for Lancôme.

BigRedBoat · 24/05/2018 21:39

Tarte lights, camera, lashes or benefit they're real

Lifeaback · 24/05/2018 22:13

Benefit ‘they’re real’
