I'm so angry right now. I'm getting ready to go to dinner for my son and his wife's birthday trying to put my eyes on with new mascara, because they  Don't  make mine anymore. So ladies I know it's been asked before, what's your favorite mascara from a drug store. I've tried the ones already suggested from the Q with no luck. Also favorite eyelash curler. Thank you. I've cooled off now.

Read the thread on dramatic lashes-tons of suggestions there. My faves are Le Volume by Chanel. Hynose Drama by Lancome, Better Than Sex by Too Faced.

Re: Beauty Experts Need Help!

I always wore Lash Discovery by Mayebelline which has a narrow brush and lengthens your lashes.  Usually, any mascara by Maybelline.  Try any brand eyelash curler in the drugstore.  If you are not satisfied write another thread and I will give you name of the lash curler I bought recently for $22.  Cat Very Happy

Re: Beauty Experts Need Help!

I say don't even go for the drugstore eyelash curler, if you have a choice. Get the Shiseido Eyelash Curler.

Mascara-there are sooo many good & bad ones at every price. My favorite mascaras (I like some lash drama) are Jordana Best Lash Extreme (Walgreens) & Mac In Extreme Dimension, Instacurl or False Lashes Mascaras. 

I do use the Mac False Lashes Lash Maximizer primer under my mascaras, too.

I like Covergirl Professional mascara, but the waterproof version. It's not wet like non waterproof that I can comb it through hard to reach lashes with the small stiff wire brush. (I don't like toothbrush size plastic bristles many newer mascaras use) It's more of a natural look than thick, but it looks the same at night as it did when I put it on and it's only $6. The curl holds, too, with the waterproof version.

 

I just use Maybelline eyelash Cutler as it's the only one I can easily find replacement pads for it.

I like Benefit, they're real mascara. Really lengthens, no clumps, no flakes. Better than any drug store brand. Also, I find lancome lash primer to be extremely helpful if you decide to use another mascara that doesn't lengthen...i doubt you'll need it with Benefit. Rollerlash from Benefit is great too. Mac makes some good ones too. I keep going going back to Benefit after many disappointments from trying everything around. Some i hated..Too faced...Better than s..x

I have used Maybelline and Lancôme eyelash curlers. I like either Urban Decay Perversion mascara which to me is similar to Lancôme Definicils mascara. For more volume, I use Lancôme Hypnose Drama or Doll Lashes.
