    I've just bought the new Estee one, it's not great, very clumpy. Chanel waterproof is not, the YSL one is ok. Maybelline, did not last 5 minutes into my gym session. No 7, Intense Volume Waterproof is really good and I have just bought one from Lidl to try.

    Just goes to show there is not one super mascara (mores the pity)!

    I had a Chanel waterproof go smudgy on me before I even left the house (was a good job I checked before walking out the door, I looked like a panda)
    I liked the No 7 volume one but it made my eyes puffy.

    This did not work for me at all and within an hour I had big smudges under my eyes but then I do suffer from some weird condition where mascaras other people swear by are useless on me, I have oily eyelashes or something I don’t know .
    I find Est!e Lauder Double Wear Zero-Smudge Lengthening Mascara the best I have ever tried and amazed me recently when through a very very traumatic time and days of crying and eye rubbing it was still pretty perfect, also it is pretty easy to remove.

    I bought a small estee lauder zero smudge from ebay on the back of this thread.
    It was clumpy, didnt make my eyelashes nearly as long as clubbing or the other good one, loreal double extend waterproof.
    Smudged & was then difficult to remove:(
    Not for me!
  • Armani! so so good - I couldn't be more happy with a mascara. You can buy it online at the Armani store

    I bought the Bourjois clubbing one. It worked a treat during the funeral despite the tears, and did not go clumpy at all, but then a few days later we had some more bad news and I had a massive cry and did end up looking like a panda. However I do really like it and it would be fine for a gym session etc.

    It came off fairly easily with Avene gentle cleanser.
  • I 2nd Rach Ruby!! Maybelline offers my favorite drugstore mascaras. And I'm sorry for your loss.
    Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough. ♥ :beer:
