    Rimmel lash accelerator mascara is great for my short, stubby non existent lashes :)

    I like Loreal and also Clinique.. If you buy glamour magazine this month they are giving sample size mascara's and other Clinque products. Worth a try for £2

    I've been using Maybelline One by One and it's amazing! It's impossible for it to clump honestly! x

    Lancome Hypnose :) I love it.
    The frontier is never somewhere else. And no stockades can keep the midnight out.

    I second this - or any Rimmel mascara seems to work well for me!

    I am lucky in that I have naturally long and curled eyelashes, but these definitely add volume and definition. Bargain too!

    Barry M 'Three in One' mascara (I'm pretty sure that's it's name!) comes in a silvery wand. Not tested on animals - great stuff.
