Ok.... Hourglass cosmetics? Mascara is AMAZING

After YEARS of searching I think I've found the holy grail of mascara - it's giving me proper fluttery lashes AND it doesn't smudge or flake ALL DAY LONG!!!! I'm so happy 

It's not cheap though so while I'm really impressed with hourglass mascara I'm a bit reluctant to try anything else from there. Has anyone tried anything and would recommend??

Attached a pic of my lashes after using the caution mascara - you can see how short and stumpy my natural lashes are lol

I try not to spend £££ on makeup these days but Hourglass is good. I got the travel size of this mascara recently and am on my 2nd of one of their powders after using every last bit of the first one (unheard of!)

I've got an ambient powder and bloody love it!!!!

Oh dear, you made me order it. Plus the Ambient palette. Btw, has anyone tried Armani Black Ecstasy? I think that's pretty good too - have repurchased. Doesn't smudge, whereas loads do on me (looking you, all Benefit ones).

Shame they only appear to do it in black......i like brown or brown/black.........

NYX mascara is amazing and cheap (£8) and also cruelty free (like Hourglass). Have always wanted to try Hourglass but can’t justify the cost.

I’m torn. Online reviews seem split between people raving that it’s a wonder product and the best mascara they’ve tried and people saying it’s the worst mascara they’ve ever encountered due to clumpiness, flakiness and difficult to apply.

I got the mini travel sized new Hourglass mascara a few months ago to try and have to say it truly is the best mascara I have ever used it gives superb results just a really well made formulation.

I have the Hourglass eyebrow pencil. I really like it as is slanted so easy to apply and stays put.

Hourglass ambient powders are SO overrated, shiny shimmery, look terrible if flash. The primer that gets raved about is okay but "This works" is better.

I'm reluctant to try the mascara, although it does look fab on you. Ive had similar results from L'oreal architect 3d however and it's much cheaper!!
