Thumbs up Which Mascara do you use?

I have used Max Factors Aqua lash mascara for years, in black.

It's smudge proof and waterproof and retails @ about £6.50, it's amazing stuff!

I always use a black mascara and always waterproof. My favourite brand is l'oreal but I often give into advertisement pressure and waste money on other brands. These diversions are usually costly mistakes.

but as i hardly ever wear makeup nowadays and i remember it cost me about £15 for it i have carried on using it, its in a blue ish tube i used to have one years ago that had a lovely comb/brush and was smudge proof and was fab but not seen it for years,

Judy,

Mascara is my one bug bear with make-up

At the moment I'm using No 7's Full impact and it's ok so far

I did fork out £14 for Bad Lash Mascara by Benefit but it was rubbish as it was very wet

love Clare xx

I have a weakness for Mascara so normally buy loads of different brands but as money is short I've cut back and only bought one and thats a Clinque one.

It's one of those barely there ones, personally I like the bold mascara but I just can't pull that off so go for the hint of colour. It's not cheap but I normally stock up at duty free

Jay

Try MF's Aqua lash Clare,

It really is fab!
I have an old lash comb that I use, so I always apply mascara, comb through
and then re-apply!

Hugs Judyxxx

I'm like Wendy and love Maybelline

I'm also a fan of Ruby and Millie. Can't be doing with the waterproof ones as I seem to struggle to take them off again

Black is my favourite colour nowadays but back in the 80's used to use bright blue and purple mascaras!!

Love
Liz
