I have used many brands of mascara, from branded to drugstore ones but I have to say Loreal's Voluminous is the winner of them all (until I find a better one). It's so cheap, something like less than £7 each and sometimes you get deals like buy 3 for 2 which means much cheaper at less than £5 each.
This is the old version of Voluminous. They have revised it and now it's Voluminous X5 and the packaging is in black.
Go grab yourself one if you haven't tried this! I really enjoy using mine and I hope you'd enjoy it as much as I do.
Diorshow is one of the expensive ones I've used. I'd give it a 3/5 because it smudges after a few hours of application. Maybe because I have oily skin? I don't know. Anyway it didn't work very well for me plus it's on the expensive side at around £20 each.
This is another that failed to meet my expectations! It's said to create a spectacular fanned out effect, for voluminous and beautifully lengthened looking lashes. Unfortunately didn't work for me!! Maybe for those with extremely long lashes it might do the trick but for me I'd give it a 2/5!
The most disappointing and pointless one I've used will have to be Lancome ÔSCILLATION WATER-RESISTANT. This is what it says on the product descriptions and none of its claims is true, what a bunch of b***s***!!!! Maybe for the part that it vibrates. Haha!
The 1st water-resistant vibrating mascara by Lancôme.
Perfect looking-lashes at the touch of a button.
Up to 18 hours wear. Lashes resist water without smudging. Up to 7000 oscillations per minute. Easy application.
The polymer-based vibrating brush has been specially designed to work in synergy with the texture of Oscillation for perfect lashes in the blink of an eye.
Simply press the button and this mascara automatically mimics the zig-zag brushstrokes used by professional make-up artists for lashes that look fuller, longer and more seperated.

They're charging a hefty £28 each and I felt so cheated after my first application!! It didn't do a thing to my lashes and I must say, any drugstore mascaras would do better than this. What a total gimmick!!!
So ladies, make sure you don't go wasting your money on this one!! I haven't touched mine a lot after a few applications! What a total waste of money!!
Enjoy your day and stay beautiful ladies. xoxo
whoa..I haven't try any of your products you mentioned above. I tried No.7 by Boots which totally is useless, then changed to Maybeline and have been using since then. It's quite cheap as well. just under £5. Maxfactor did a good job as well. but I do agree with you that cheaper product does a good job compared to those expensive ones.
ReplyDeleteyeah yeah I heard about Maybelline too..love to try it someday!! Thanks for sharing darling!! *muaks*
