Grrrrr....not anymore. The 4x formula was perfect. It's now only available in waterproof here. The 5x is drier and doesn't work as well. Hated it. With a passion beyond belief.
Switched to the Loreal butterfly mascara. Works, barely, and I hate the wand. Three hours later and eyes are itchy....I always know I have mascara on.
So I figured it was a perfect time to go cruelty free...since I have to go mascara hunting anyway.
I've tried high-end department store mascaras and Estee Lauder the classic one (dark navy packaging) is great (no clumps, lengthens and thickens smoothly), but the my favorite mascara is a drugstore brand: Maybelline Full n' Soft, leaves lashes noticeably thicker, longer, no clumps. I hate clumping and also spidery lashes that look coated and dry.
Oh how I used to love Fulln'soft! but it's not sold in my country anymore and I've had a hard time getting it online.
I've pretty much stopped wearing mascara because I think it irritates my eyes, it's a bummer because I don't have dark lashes so I look really plain without it. Sometimes I still use a thin coating of an Almay one that was recommended for sensitive eyes.
chiluvr1228, I too, only want a natural look. By that I mean dark, separated, non-clumped, curled, long lashes.
Best I've found is Lancôme Definicils.
To fulfill my definition, anyone suggest another? thanks
i only wear mascara on formal occasions with full on makeup (which is very rare). can't tolerate it any more frequently than that. i barely can tolerate eyeliners more often than that. that's why eyebrow pencils are my main makeup. they don't irritate me and i look more polished with just pencilling them in than putting on loads of mascara without defining the brows. i swear! i've seen women (blondes at that) wear tons of eyeliners and mascaras without any definition to their light brows
