    I love maybellines xxl volume and length – it has a base coat and top coat approach that works awesome and lasts. I see they just brought out an upgrade though…

  2. Sarah says:

    Stila Lash Visor is on the top of my list!

  3. Tiffany says:

    Stila Major Lash is my current fav. It tends to be clumpy, but if you can get just the right amount on the applicator. . . it really does the trick!

    • Alexis says:

      Agreed – it’s an old fav of mine. But once you blot most of it with a tissue it works well. That said, I’ll have to dig out my old tube and test drive it again!

  4. Kate says:

    I use DiorShow Iconic as a lash primer followed by Benefits BadGal Lash!!! i looovee it!!! it gives me a fake lashes effect=)

    • inuchan says:

      Hello :)

      Can you get a good volume when applying Diorshow Iconic all alone?

      (I need a good volumizing mascara, and I am hesitating in buying Iconic…)

  5. Amy says:

    Maybelline Colossal and Maybelline XXL

  6. tess says:

  10. Jessika says:

  11. Melody says:

    YSL VOLUME EFFET FAUX CILS MASCARA

  12. Anitacska says:

    I love Maybelline’s Lash Stilletto, as well as lenght, it gives me good volume too. Also Guerlain’s Le 2 Mascara and Givenchy’s Phenomeneye.

  13. Marina says:

    Guerlain Le 2 <3

  14. Kaylabella says:

    Maybelline Colossal!

  15. Zoffe says:

    Maybelline Colossal or Dior DiorShow. I’d pick Colossal over DiorShow though, because of the price! ;)

  16. Jennifer says:

    Maybelline Colossal works really good for volumizing.

    Maybelline is the best drug store brand mascara imo.

  17. Alexis says:

    Right now I’m using Tarte’s Light, Camera, Lashes – it’s pretty good but my favorite is still MAC’s Plush Lash and yes I prefer this over DiorShow

  18. Prime Beauty says:

    Chanel Exceptionale for sure! Stila Lash Visor makes my daughter’s lashes look miles long!

  19. amy says:

    I have the shortest and most stubborn asian lashes so I use shu uemura eyelash curler, then shu uemura mascara basic as a primer because it keeps the curl and then lancome amplicils or ysl volume effet faux cils mascara.
    best thing is it never clumps and it looks amazing!

  20. jojoba says:

    it is MUFE Smoky Lash for me

  21. electrik love says:

    Maybelline Colossal is very good but Loreal Volume Collagen is amazing…seriously…one coat of this can do what 3 coats of another mascara could…….I CANT WAIT FOR THE LASH BLAST LEGENTH TO COME OUT.

  22. Breane says:

    Lancome lash primer + YSL Everlong + MAC Plush Lash

  23. Shelley says:

    Good ole L’oreal Voluminous works pretty good for me *most* days! I may have to try some of these on this list though. :)

  24. Carly says:

    MAX Factor 2000 Calorie

  25. Nicky says:

    Lancome Hypnose and Chanel Exceptional. . . or YSL Faux Cils with Chanel Exceptional over it.

  26. amani says:

    bad gal lash from benifit !!!!!!!,,or mac’s plush mascara

  27. miss anna says:

    i love Maybelline volum express turbo boost waterproof..

  28. Kate says:

    Cover Girl Volume Exact or Rimmel Sexy Curves (just tried this on a whim…totally stunned and I’ve been a Cover Girl since the day I discovered mascara).

  29. Christine says:

    Lash Blast is my fave mascara for both volume and length. It’s amazing!

  30. Christy says:

    Diorshow! I just started using the L’oreal Extra Volume Collagen and it is pushing my Diorshow out of the way.

  31. Rachel says:

    Majolica Majorca’s (by Shiseido and only available in certain markets) Lash Beautifying Mascara Frame Plus.

  32. Laura says:

    Urban Decay Big Fatty :D

  33. Melissa says:

    Buxom Mascara by Bare Essentials is great! I reviewed it on my blog! Click the link to visit!!!

  34. Brandi says:

    Cover Girl Lash Blast hands down. I don’t have anything else but :)

  35. Fari says:

    Cover Girl’s lashblast and Max Factor’s 2000 cal. … I think Rimmel’s Sexy Curves also works really well.

  36. Vy says:

    Lashblast works every time. I just bought Lancome Hypnose Drama today so we’ll see how that works. Oh & I also bought Cargo LashActivator. The Sephora rep highly recommended it, but hmmm, we’ll see.

  37. jenny says:

    i like l’oreal voluminous. although it is tons better when it is drier than initially. i find it too wet when its new.

  38. Rosie says:

    What about best natural looking mascara? I had a friend ask me that this week but I didn’t have an answer. Any ideas?

  39. Jax says:

    loreal voluminous for drug store brands. and all dior diorshow’s mascara for high end.

  40. Redhead (hi) says:

    Maybelline Full ‘n’ Soft and L’Oreal Voluminous. Cheap and fab :D

  41. Natalia says:

    I really like Cargo Texas Lash Mascara…Its a little tricky at first because the brush is humungous but once you get the hang of it its amaaaazing. Diorshow is really not worth the price to me, L’oreal Voluminous is as good as drugstore gets for me!

  42. Saira says:

    I LOVE Loreal Lash Architect mascara in carbon black. It’s one of the few products that I use again and again – would be gutted if it was discontinued! It makes your lashes really long, curled, thick and well-defined. It’s quite a high impact mascara, so great for when I want my eyelashes to stand out.

  43. Jilian says:

    MAC ZOOM LASH

  44. Miss JJ says:

    Lancome mascara primer + Lancome hypnose (or Lancome Fatale)

  45. Alex says:

    I am always trying new mascaras…i’d say the loreal double extend tubes primer is the best, u can use it under any mascara and it makes it work bettee, but the best all around thickening mascara is makeup forever smoky lash, best lengthening mascara would be givenchy’s phenomen’eyes. amazing mascaras!

  46. Vyki says:

    TexasLash by Cargo is really good for volume, creates a really thick and full lash look, without going long and spidery. Unfortunately I dont know where you ca buy it in the UK. Good for people who have long lashes that arent very volume-y

  47. Jules says:

    1. YSL false lash
    2. Chanel
