    Another vote for Lancome Hypnose, only thing I find is it dries out fast. I buy it always at duty free, think it's about £16, some l'oreal mascaras are £13, that's how I justify it. :o

    There are gift sets as well which contains a mascara, an eyeliner and a little bottle of bi-facial eya make up remover.

  • Definitely! Shame I can't always justify the expense though :o

    It is soooo expensive but I justify it by telling myself Im wasting more money on cheaper mascaras that dont perform well! If anyone knows a site that sells it cheaper than the £20.50 :eek:i just paid in Boots, let me know please :)

    Cheapsmells do that for £9.65 - I have used them before and the service is good.

    I used to buy it from Cheapsmells but they never seem to stock it in black anymore. Shame because they definitely were the cheapest stockists I found.
  • Matalans Big Lashes has so far proven to be a good cheap mascara.

    I bought it in the sale for £1 & it's quite good, especially for the price. Would recommend it, even if you only used it everyday.
  • I've just bought the new Loreal 4D mascara and its the only one that makes my eye lashes look like i've put on false ones, (fair, freckles, blonde eyelashes) i am in love with it. only problem is that its a nightmare to get off
  • looks like they have it back in stock, but its gone up in price from the £9 you used to pay

    I never buy mascaras as I always ask for freebies when I buy other make up. Currently using Estee Lauder Double Wear and Sumptuous.

    I've switched from Lancome Hypnose to Mac Haute and Naughty Lash, I love it and find the thin brush enough for every day wear and the thicker brush is brilliant for night. You do need a proper eye make up remover to take it off though, wipes just won't cut it.
    The frontier is never somewhere else. And no stockades can keep the midnight out.

    I tend to alternate between Lancome Defincils and Lancome Hypnose. Have recently decided that I prefer Hypnose so just need to finish off my tube of Defincils and then I'll stick to Hypnose.

    They are the only premium mascaras I've tried so I don't know how they compare to other 'posh' brands but I've never found a cheaper brand mascara to be as good.
