Current Favourite Mascaras

 

I'm usually quite picky with mascaras. I just feel a lot of them make my eye lashes resemble spiders legs, and that's not exactly the look I go for. I've been trying out various mascaras, some old and some new, and I have three which I am love love loving at the minute .

 

Mascara number one is one which I have loved for a long time now, and that is Body Shop Super Volume Mascara. The very short bristles on the applicator mean that there is no clumping, and my eye lashes appear much longer. The mascara it's self is a very intense black which helps make my lashes seem fuller. This mascara is usually priced at £10 which may seem like a lot for just a high street mascara but I think it is totally worth it, I have repurchased this twice now, and it is still a strong contender.

Mascara number two is the widely raved about Maybelline falsies mascara. It seems that everyone and their cat have tried this and have loved it, and I am one of them. Maybelline are one of my favourite brands for mascara for many reasons. They're so affordable, and the quality is excellent. This mascara only costs £7.99 and it definitely stands out from the rest in my opinion. I love that the applicator is curved which allow the bristles to fully coat every lash evenly.  Similar to the body shop mascara I find that this also does not clump my lashes, and they appear full and fanned out.

 

Mascara number three is a newly discovered gem from MAC. I had never tried any mac mascaras before but when it came to getting my makeup done for my prom I decided that I would buy the mascara which they had used on me, MAC Opulash mascara. The applicator is quite different from the other two, as the bristles are a lot longer and there are more of them. My lashes are not separated as well as they are with the other two mascaras, but I find that they appear very full and black. I do not need to apply as many coats with this mascara, only one is necessary. This is one of the more pricey mascaras at a cost of £14. I am not sure if I would repurchase this over the others I have tried but it is still definitely one of the best.
