    I had to see what all the hype was with Dior…I’ve been hooked ever since. Never clumps and it gives sooo much drama.

  2. Sally says:

    I loved Lancome’s Hypnose mascara… such pretty feathery looking lashes.

    I’m using Covergirl’s Volume Exact right now – Excellent volume and versatile enough to build length… but terrible fallout D=

  3. Parveen says:

    i have a few favorites

    i like the dior mascara because i mean WOW so much volume

    and guerlains new mascara with the two brushes extends and seperates my lashes ridiciously too bad it does’t give that much volume
    it uses a rubber brush the new thing

    BUTTTTTTTTTTT

    chanel have this new mascara out that uses a rubber brush and a normal britsle brush entwinded .. i have it but not yest used it..i bet it will be good

    False lashes make me happy…

    I loooove Benefit’s Bad Gal Lash. Such gorgeous dramatic lashes and no clumping..and I don’t even wait for my coats to dry! I know everyone loooves Diorshow Blackout, but I have had a bad experience with it.The color is to die for, but it clumps so badly that I can’t even get a lash comb through it. Then all day long it feels like the mascara is trying to glue my lashes together, like it doesnt dry or something. Maybe because I got the waterproof kind? It kills me because I love the blackness so much. OK that’s my Diorshow rant.

      Sounds to me like your Dior was defective. I’d let you borrow mine to see that it really is amazing! :) Give it one more try! Plz? I also don’t have waterproof cause I hear it tends to clump, but both my Diorshow and Diorshow Blackout never give me a problem. Actually, I layer Diorshow Blackout OVER Diorshow for an even fuller look. It’s SO gorg! And they just came out with a plum color that’s to die for. ;)

    I have to second the Benefit Bad Gal lash. It’s just absolutely incredible and people ask if I’m wearing false eyelashes a lot. It never ever clumps and I don’t even have to curl my lashes to get that sexy effect.

  7. Tammy M says:

    I LOVE Majorca Majolica Lash Extend mascara from Japan. MJ is a drugstore brand over there…I have to get it via CP but I will not do without…it is my HG!

  8. Courtney says:

    Diorshow black………best mascara EVER :)

  9. Jenna says:

    I do want to try Dior or Lancome and all that but right now, my favourite is Dejavu Fibrewig. They give lush and long, natural looking lashes with, amazingly, no clumps at all! :D And it washes off with warm water. Perfect for lazy people like me. Oh yes and it rubs off easily when it gets onto your skin so when you poke your face with the wand (like I “cleverly” always do, it gets wiped off easily)

  10. Minty746 says:

    I totally second Tammy M’s MJ Mascara. That is amazing stuff! It gives big, bold lashes with thick definition and volume with a nice black color. That mascara makes my lashes as slutty as slutty lashes can get, LOL! It’s my number one pick for partying. I also second Jenna’s Dejavu Fibrewig. That is another one of my faves; sure, it’s not dramatic, but my lashes are long, pretty, curled, and defined with a feathery volume. It won’t clump on my dense lashes and it has never smeared on my lids. Removal is a dream, too. Unfortch, I really don’t have an HG mascara–I like changing my lash look, so I don’t stick to one mascara all the time.

  11. viv says:

    I haven’t found a staple yet since I try different stuff every time. Here’s what I don’t quite understand, if new mascara should be bought after every months, then are expensive mascaras really worth their price for such a short usage time? : P

    • Tammy M says:

      The MJ mascara I get from Japan is about 1200 yen, so about $12 USD….I don’t think you need a highpriced mascara to get great lashes, and I have tried a lot!…also, the applicator is a comb, not a bristle brush…

  12. vinna says:

    I’m with Tammy on Shiseido MM Lash Extend. AWESOME mascara that is my ultimate HG because it does its job and doesn’t smudge! Woohoo!

    I think i’ve tried all other mascaras known to female-kind, from Diorshow to Chanel Inimitable … all does not compare to Shiseido MM.

  13. Saira Reid says:

    I love Loreal Lash Architect in Carbon Black – gives really black, curly, voluminous long lashes! I recently bought Estee Lauder Sumptuous mascara and it is amazing – gives well-defined, voluminous curled eyelashes. Really tempted to try Benefit Bad Gal mascara as heard a lot of good things about it.

  14. shayna says:

    -Lorac’s Publicity Stunt Long Wearing Mascara
    -Vincent Longo’s Curling Mascara
    -And not gonna lie…CoverGirl’s LashBlast

  15. Kathleena says:

    My Mac Plushlash!

  16. Vee says:

    CG’s Lash Blast works well for me. I’m not gonna stop looking, though!

  17. Kimberly says:

    I love Chantecaille mascara, if I have to use it. I get scared when I put mascara on or if someone tries to apply mascara on my eyelashes.

  18. Lisa says:

    Kiss Me – doesn’t smudge or flake and it’s waterproof. Comes off in tubes without makeup remover – just water and rubbing with your hands/fingers. LOVE IT!!

  19. Lingping says:

    Kanebo 38+, the little tube. I love it! gives me all the black I need, gives silky shiny lashes, and washes off with water.

  20. Brenda says:

    Dior show blackout, I’m waiting for the iconic I heard it’s going to be better then the regular dior show and unlimited.

  21. Kristine says:

    Lumene Blueberry Curl rocks my world!

  22. Laura says:

    Imju Fiberwig is my lover!! It adds so much length to my lashes and it curls them too.

    I’m also loving Rimmel’s Extra Super Lash. A friend told me to get it, and I’m glad she did. :)

    • lizzii says:

      i so did not tell you to get it. you played with it and decided to get it for yourself. :p

      rimmel’s underrated. <3

      my lovah is l’oreal voluminous full definition formula. :D closely followed by rimmel’s volume flash.

      boo lashblast.

  23. Chica says:

    I loved Maxfactor Masterpiece until I tried Benefit Badgal Lash – I’ll never change my mascara (unless they change badgal and then I’ll be forced too) – it is AMAZING.

  24. christy says:

    i think the best mascara ever is Fresh Supernova. It gives amazing length and volume and is glossy, and it has vitamins that condition your lashes as you wear it. i feel like its made my natural lashes healtier. To me i think that the diorshow is good the first month, but dries up too quickly and doesn’t perform as well afterwards

  25. Asta says:

    Diorshow!

    I have a sample of the Kiss Me tubing mascara, and I hear Clinique is coming out with a similar formula, so I want to try those.

    I didn’t love Bad Gal when I tried it, but maybe I’ll give it another shot.

    And when I’m just looking for darker, defined lashes I go for the Maybelline in the pink and green tube.

  26. Tekoa says:

    Right now I’m loving Plushlash from MAC. It makes me happy because it doesn’t clump my lashes together. The fat brush is a tad unwieldy for me though.

  27. M1st4eva says:

    Maybelline’s Define-A-Lash Volume Mascara (the magenta tube). It is the BEST mascara I’ve ever used. It really lives up to its name as well, especially if you combine it with the lengthening Define-A-Lash (green tube).

  28. cloudburst says:

    Maybelline Great Lash Waterproof, it’s my standby & keeps my lashes curled.

  29. Eva says:

    Maybelline Great Lash waterproof.
    It´s the only mascara that holds the curl in my long, straight lashes.. :o ( Well, most days at least..
    If anyone can recommend another one I´d be grateful.

  30. ayat says:

    I absolutely adore my DiorShow mascara and my Cynthia Rowley for Avon Mascara!!!

  31. Haydee says:

    Hmmm I only have one Mac X and a few drug store brands. Sometimes I forget to apply and just walk out the door. I am looking at everyone comments and I think Im gonna try Dior next time. Christine I’ll flip the question on you lol Which one do you think is the best :)

    • Haydee says:

      Oh crap I mean which one makes you happy, makes you want to hug at night instead of your teddy bear lol ok in Im in a car later!

  32. Sara says:

    I LOVED Maybellines Lash Discovery, the brush was smaller than some of the huge, fluffy caterpillars out there…however it looks like it’s been discontinued and I’m hunting for a new HG! I have very long lashes and don’t like to build them up at all, just give them cover.

  33. jess says:

    I hated DiorShow – it was very unimpressive to me.

    My favorites right now are Fiberwig (makes my lashes EXTRA super long) and CG LashExact (cheap and good!).

  34. Paola says:

    maybelline define-a-lash all the way…the brush is bendable and it seperates every eye lash i love it

  35. Chloe says:

    DIORSHOW BLACKOUT!!! It’s amazing!!!! I also like MAC Plushlash and Zoomlash but Diorshow is my first pick! =D

  36. Jennifer says:

    Plushlash, without a doubt. It’s fantastic.

  37. lina says:

    l’oreal voluminous

  38. claudine says:

    MACs Zoomlash
    I like that its really black no crumbling
    and i love the brush
    for extra drama i wear falsies

  39. Annie says:

    DiorShow for the overall lashes, and this new Givenchy Phenomen’Eyes for the inner and outer corners.. I have never seen my lashes open up so much ever before! and i ALWAYS get compliments!!

  40. manda says:

    I just tried MAX FACTOR’S VOLUME COUTURE MASCARA.. and I kid you not, it beats any MAC mascara I’ve used and any expensive brand I’ve tried.. I swear by MAC PLUSH LASH and I got this mascara and last week and haven’t picked up my MAC mascara since then. It’s amazing! It volumizes at the base of your lash and lifts and curls and lengthens the ends. I have BEFORE AND AFTER pics if anybody wants to check it out. I love it!!!!

  41. Manda says:

    Not sure if you have to be a member to see this but I posted my pics on my sugar page…

    Chanel Exceptionnel! It’s awesome!!!!!

  43. Macaddict says:

    Have always been keen on trying out the new mascaras out there. All kinds. All colors. All price ranges. Never yet found “the perfect one”.:-(
    Not even Dior’s Blackout or Lancome (which is famous for its mascaras), can impress me that much. Like Kiss Me tubing mascara but not much volume. Like falsies but am not good at applying so, for almost a year now, have been getting lash extensions. Love it! Expensive but my lashes always look perfect – darker and longer than my natural ones – and I do nothing! :-) To me, it’s the best “mascara” out there.
