right i need some reccomendations for a decent mascara please :o)

[FAWKEOFF]

i need a new one and dont want to be buying a really shite one....thanks

Without doubt the best one I have ever used is YSL faux effect. really gloopy and thick and makes it look like you have false eyelashes they are sooooo long! ( V expensive though)

how much is the ysl one???? i wont pay more than 20 quid for it

yes i agree with the faux cils ysl one

or the dior backstage one

buying cheap mascara is just cheating yourself

I agree with cathers, I'm addicted to my YSL, Ive recently changed to the browny black though as the black made me look too 'done up'

I've also YSL faux cils and it was about £18 I think (but not waterproof, but then I never noticed it running down my face anyway). And now I love Lancome Hynose (or however it's spelt)- about the same price as YSL. Recently I've been using eyelash curlers which I always thought were a gimmick, but they REALLY work. Also, as far as cheapies go, I like Maybelline Volume Express (in a navy tube). I have always been on a mission to find the perfect mascara and I think YSL and Lancome are the best.

dior blackout, 17 quid ish, not gloopy or clumpy, doesn't have bits in it but really lengthens

shall be making a trip to debenhams tomorrow then...i am just pissed of with buying mascaras that are 7 to 8 quid and are utter shit....for the amount i buy in acouple of months i might as well invest in a decent one that i will be happy with

clinique naturally glossy.
is ONLY one which doesnt clump on my lashes and look all unnatural.
doesnt seem to dry out for about a year either.

what about a good cheapie? any suggestions
gutted - just discovered maybelline owned by nestle (as is lancome)

ive tried maybelline and i dont rate it at all personally, im not bothered about buying a reasonable priced mascara i just want one that is going to work well

I know you said no to Maybelline but their UNSTOPPABLE is really great, the best I've tried and I have tried a lot as I have eyelashes like a piglet.

lol maidamess i cant remember which one i bought from maybelline but it had a pink package....utter shit and it put me off their brand full stop...i dont know if i can go back

You bought the one that EVERYONE buys, which is rubbish. The Unstoppable one does not smudge, but comes off easily. it has a fab brush,it isn't too wet (which gives you spider lashes), and I love it!

I buy mine on ebay, as Boots seem to have stopped it. I bought 3 for £10 last week.

Maybelline and Lancôme are owned by l'Oréal, not Nestlé.

Isn't L'oreal owned by Nestle though?

For a cheaper option I really recommend Boots No 7 - all their range are good but if you want mega lashes, Lash Extensions is the one, Intense Volume for everyday. Don't bother with Dream Lash, gloopy IMO. I have really sensitive, allergic eyes (maybelline made them EXPLODE) and have no problem with these.

No, L'Oréal is not owned by Nestlé.

They are two entirely separate consumer goods groups.

maybelline l'oreal lancome redkin biotherm all on the baby milk action boycott list (really sorry for therad hijack)

try aldi, £3 & fab

The L'Oréal group owns the Maybelline, Lancôme, Biotherm, Redken and L'Oréal Paris brands (among many, many others).

I can only imagine that L'Oréal is on the Baby Milk Action boycott list because of its JV with Nestlé for food supplements.

I like Astonishing Lengths by Avon, it's really nice. And I'm using a No 7 one at the moment but you have to apply several coats if you like it a bit thicker which I do.
