I have been fortunate enough to have in my hand and on my lashes a few decent brands of mascara lately. I wanted to share (and ask you to do the same, if you wish), as I love to experiment and thought I'd give my input of the products I have and use.
The first two are Maybelline products and are staples:
Lash Discovery
Lash Stylist
They can be found just about anywhere and I tend to keep one or the other on hand. The Lash Stylist takes a bit of getting used to, but can create dramatic results. The Lash Discovery isi a perfect lash enhancer; it has a skinny wand and brush and I usually use it on top of the stylist to bring out a little more length.
Also, you'll notice that all of the products that I list are either waterproof or water resistant*. My eyes tend to water quite a bit, therefore I try to combat the Susan Sarandon/Rocky Horror Picture Show look!
Next are the department store/online accessible products:
Blinc Kiss Me Tube Mascara - The best way to describe this product comes from the listing itself - it AMPLIFIES your lashes! (and it's kinda fun to pick at them before you remove your makeup )
Lancome Definicils - Definicils is a lovely product, really. It totally captures the lashes and makes the most without being overbearing. I have just the black, as opposed to jet black, so again - not overbearing. I usually wear it during the day as it's not too dark.
Bare Escentuals Weather Anything - Now here is a product that seems to expand and reinforce your lashes. I like it quite a bit!
And finally:
DiorShow Waterproof - This mascara is THE BOMB!! I can't really describe why I like it so much, it just seems to set it self a little apart from the others. It offers a lot of work and results with simple strokes.
Well, I hope this was helpful - or at least interesting!
*resistant/resistent - both appear in online dictionary
