The Mascara Thread

[Dulcisima]

Can anyone recommend a really good eyelash treatment? I noticed I've been loosing more eyelashes lately, it wasn't that many so I wasnt worried but today I woke up and there were lashes all around my eyes. There must have been at least 10-15 that I lose Can it be since I dont remove the mascara completly at night? Or from wearing false eyelashes? I only wear them once or twice a week.

Guessgirl try to use soft eye make up remover, dont rub your eyelashes too hard and avoid waterproof mascara if your having a problem with eyelashes loss...also i highly recommend that you use castor oil on your eyelashes...take an ear cotton bud, dip it in castor oil and use it as if your using a mascara on your eyelashes....i usually use an old mascara wand ( wash it out) and dip it in the oil , i find it easier to apply than cotton buds..if u do this in two weeks, u will notice a difference hope that helps

i love my Shiseido(<- ya know im not even sure on the pronounciation) eyelash curler too! i tried Sky High Curves before as well so i know what you mean, it was just disappointing. Maybelline Lash Discovery was dry and clumped. the trick with Lash Stylist though is getting a clean curl like lashes that have good separation. if they criss cross then Lash Stylist will clump! thats why i spend more time on getting a good curl or else!

Thanks! All Maybelline mascaras are discounted at the moment, so I might get it...if it's available in Denmark Sky High Curves really doesn't do anything but holding the curl.

I got a sample of Diorshow and while it smelled great, it wasn't anything to write home about. I know loads of you will disagree, but I find Dior and Chanel cosmetics to be really over rated.

I like NARS and Max Factor best...in fact Max Factor's 2000 calorie mascara in BROWN (always brown!) is my standard, go-to muck...it never fails to give the perfect thickness and length.

I have to disagree... it's diorshow hands down for me. I've been using it for almost 2 years. NARS is one of my fav makeup brands in general though.. esp their foundation and blush.

I didn't like Diorshow either, it smudged far, far too much, even when I tried the waterproof one.

Max Factor 2000 calorie is my favourite basic mascara, but the best mascara I've used overall was YSL's faux cils.

Diorshow is my fave but recently i bought Exceptionnel de Chanel and i must say i'm amazed... I love the weird brush and i can add several layers!!!

I got Diorshow a while ago and I thought it was ok but it didn't do anything spectacular for me. My cousin's in love with it though, maybe it just worked differently for her...

I have really straight, long lashes, and I've tried a lot of mascaras.. most of them didn't curl them a bit. the only ones I love are lancomes "hypnose", and l'oreals "voluminous x5 carbon black".

^^ Try using a eyelash curler before putting mascara on. Will help it be more curly.

 

[princess sparkle]

I've tried that before, but it actually didn't work .. the lashes got curled a bit, but seconds later, they were straight again -.-

 

[i_<3_chanel]

i'm impressed by max factor's false lash effect which is the uk version of covergirl's lash blast. lots of volume and very very black

I went through every major mascara. Chanel Inimitable was fine, I was horribly disappointed by Diorshow, Lancôme Hypnose didn't do it for me, but now I've arrived, Phenomen'eyes by Givenchy is just brilliant, even though it takes a little longer to apply it amkes or lashes soooo long and it's zero sticky. It's genius.

If anyone's interested in a decent drugstore mascara, i'd recommend the L'Oreal Telescopic. I discovered after asking one of my friends what mascara she used, because her lashes always looked great, curled, in place and with the perfect amount of mascara. So i gave it a try and it's pretty nice. It has a plastic brush so the amount of product you take out from the tube is more 'controllable'

BF's mom is so nice to me... She's getting me a Helena Rubinstein mascara on Monday, they're bloody expensive! They're nearly $40 these days.
