Mascara

Not happy with how the company chose to redo the Great Lash mascara that I used for who knows how long. So I'm going to see what I can find around here. Why do they have to change a good thing? I asked for ideas eons ago on here but I'm not going to today.

I know someone else asked awhile back too. I'm just going to try on my own until I find a good replacement. It's no wonder companies lose a good customer when they change a tried and true product. I know a lot of other women liked it too.

Have you had something change that you used for a long time too? A beauty product?

Am I missing something? I am not aware of Maybelline changing anything about Great Lash mascara. ?????

I didn't know that Great Lash was changed either; however I found NYC City Curls is just as good and probably cheaper.

Yes! There are probably many favorites that have changed or have been discontinued. I was so upset when Max Factor was discontinued. Loved their Stretch and also Stretch and Separate mascaras. I still bemoan the fact that Clairol discontinued Herbal Essences Color Me Happy 2-in-1 shampoo! The separate version of that shampoo has changed--smells different, too.

About the mascaras...I know you said you weren't going to ask for suggestions (and, yes, there are threads on this subject).

A few I have liked recently are:

Cover Girl Lashblast Length

Almay One Coat Thickening Mascara. I tried this one day when I was almost out of mascara and I happened to be in BJ's and they had a package of 2 for $7.99. Great deal...great mascara.

L'Oreal Voluminous Butterfly Mascara (want to try the Intenza version next).

Thanks, I'll look. Yes, GL, changed the container and I don't like the brush with it now.

Thanks Gloria, I'll have to check on the ones you suggested too.

Jordana mascara in the black tube with purple lettering. I was told by one rep at the company that it had changed and then another told me it had not. All I know is I used to use and love this mascara and now I can't use it anymore. I detest it.

I have never gotten over the discontinuance of an Estee Lauder foundation I used. It was a creamy powder that came in a rectangle case. It had a cool feeling and creamier than a typical powder but it wasn't a cream foundation.

I discovered my holy grail hairspray when it was already on clearance because it was being discontinued. It was Dove Pro-Age hairspray.

And the worst of all, my holy grail self-tanner from Avon. It was the Skin-So-Soft spray on self-tanner. I bought what I could get my hands on when I found out it was going. Periodically I e-mail Avon begging them to bring it back to no avail.

I've Loved Dermstore Lip Quench. My favorite Holy Grail lip product. Then they decided to ""REFORMULATE IT"" its horrible and the sad part is they still call it the original.

I am a mascara junkie and I've tried many kinds...one of my favorite is Maybelline Big Eyes. It had two brushes. ..one for upper and one for lower lashes. No clumping and my lashes look tons longer and thicker.
