The Mascara Thread

[Gainsbourg]

I am so mad, I went to Sephora today to get more Phenomen'eyes and they were out of black AGAIN. They were out of it last time too and I had to get brown. I hate brown it doesn't really show up on me I can't believe they were out of black again ugh! I am not having good luck with make up this week, ASOS was out of my blush too (and they're the only ones who sell what I use)

any suggestions?!?

anybody?

I am nearly out of my favourite Lancome Hypnose and am trying to decide whether to just replace it, or to give YSL Faux Cils another try... (I loved it the first time around)

Just tried the new Falsies mascara from Maybelline. Was pretty impressed. I think I'm getting the wp version (if there is one out)

 

[SweetFantasy]

Ooh, can't wait til it comes out in Aus!

anybody?

Anything Helena Rubinstein.

I've been using Hypnose Drama for a while and I'm a big fan so far, I wasn't sure whether to get that or Diorshow Blackout, maybe I'll try that one next time though. Hypnose is really good, but I don't think it's that much better than the Maxfactor 2000 calorie mascara I used to use which was only like £6. 2000 calorie is excellent.

I love CoverGirl LashBlast so recently tried the Luxe version but wasn't impressed. It doesn't hold the curl half as good.

Anything Helena Rubinstein.

thank you! will try it out.. xx

I really like Dior iconic mascara but it dryes out very soon. Have anyone else noticed it?

 

[Eurasian Mélange]

Does anyone know a brand that produces mascara in a larger variety of colours?

YSL Everlong mascara comes in seven different shades.

 

[Eurasian Mélange]

^ Thank you for the suggestion, though I am looking for something more than the typical blacks, browns and blues. Something a little different, but not as crazy as fluorescent pink, for example!

 

[SweetFantasy]

Hmm my lashes are pretty long now thanks to Rapid Lash, I need a mascara that will hold my curl and has good separation. Any suggestions.

I did like YSL Faux Cils but it only holds a curl reasonably well. I like them quiet curled.

Have you looked at them? There is dark green and a lovely burgundy shade which I use myself. It looks great with green eyes. All the shades are very modest (apart from the icy-blue one, maybe) but they add something different to your eyes.

I thought I had, but apparently I must have clicked on the wrong one! Sorry about that.

Any good quality (I love anything Helena Rubinstein) waterproof lengthening mascara will do. Waterproof mascaras hold the curl better.

the ida i think you are a make-up-expert so i would really love to know which Rubinstein-mascara is your favourite

i have tried Dior-mascaras, Lancome, Dolce&Gabbana and all high-street-brands like L'oreal, Nivea Visage, Maybelline, BodyShop and want to find THE mascara so i won't have to switch so much and buy new mascara like every month because i am not really 100% happy with the one i have - i already have like 10 or more different mascaras which i hardly use so which one is THE ONE???

^OMG thanks I don't do much in mascaras...Maybelline and Helena Rubinstein are pretty much the only brands I've ever tried when it comes to mascara

I LOVE Lash Queen! It doesn't lengthen much, but it separates and you get so much volume. I don't remember what HR's lengthening mascara is called, but I've bought that one over and over again (since I was 14...9 years go by so fast ). It's the next HR mascara I'm getting, that's for sure. Oh, and you can get the WP mascaras in brown too! Not all brands offer brown WP mascaras.

I think it was Helena Rubinstein who invented waterproof mascara...I don't quite remember. She invented something, though Mascaras are kinda HR's speciality.

thank you soooo much! i will try the Lash Queen then, that's for sure! i tried so many different ones that one more won't make a difference if i won't like it and will make a difference if i'll love it
