I use Maybelline Falsies and I love it! Gives me long, thick lashes. Except it can be kind of clumpy sometimes. So I had an old tube of something by Cover Girl that was dried out, and use the old (cleaned up) spoolie to smooth out clumps. Works beautifully.

Estee Lauder Double Wear



^ I love this mascara and have several samples stashed away. Sadly, it become crusty and clumpy 2 weeks after opening.

Revlon PhotoReady 3D Extreme



^ Would be HG, if it weren't for the pesky smudging.

Cover Girl Exact Eyelights in Black Ruby (green eyes)



^ Preforms the best but has a softer look unless 2 or more coats are applied.

Dior Extase. It's nice, but can clump.

Mary Kay Lash Love in black. Long, smooth, dark lashes (as long as I scrape the brush on the top of the tube) that still look natural. Not into that fake lash look. Have tried the Voluminous you've been using too, and prefer the Mary Kay.

Still trying to find a replacement for my much loved Cover Girl Marathon Mascara. Have tried about 862 different mascaras in the last few years, to no avail. Nothing close to it. But for now I'm using Cover Girl Professional Waterproof.

DiorShow. The formula is great, and it comes in a nice brown shade. I hate black mascara, and it's hard to find a good brown.

I just bought L'oreal's Voluminous False Fiber Lashes. It's different, not bad, but it doesn't have the umph I'm used to from the voluminous line.

Maybelline Volum'Express One-by-One

it smells like lily of the valley, but i really like the separation i get with it. i often use a brush from an old L'Oréal Telescopic Explosion to apply the product. i like the tiny round brush, but the formula of that mascara is AWFUL!

THIS! Maybelline Full N Soft is great for every day...very natural, yet defined.

For evening, I use The Falsies.

I tried CG LashBlast Fusion on someone's recommendation, and I don't like it at all. I'm used to a more dramatic look, plus it smudges like mad. The one I used before the CG was the Maybelline Falsies mentioned in this thread and I love it. One coat is great for daytime, and I'll do two if I want a really dramatic look. It stays put pretty well for one that's not waterproof, too.

I love this stuff. I've tried other brands/lines so many times, but I keep coming back to this!

I tried the Falsies mascara, but I couldn't STAND the weird "spoon" brush. It made my eyelashes so clumpy, no matter how hard I tried to get the excess mascara off the brush before putting it on.

This one has become my favorite:



I like a mascara to give lots and lot of volume that still looks feathery like real hair. This stuff does it but it has to be applied carefully.

Maybelline Classic Volume Waterproof... I'm not very picky about mascara. So I use whatever.
