My Favourite Mascaras

I'm having a lazy time today, I'm ill :( I can barely speak and my head is killing me, but yet I decided to create this post about my favourite mascaras. It's going to be a relatively short post.

My lashes are really short and fine, i like a mascara to curl them up and give them some volume. I don't like it when a mascara gets clumpy, its just a mess. I also dislike spider-like lashes. It just looks cheap to me. For daywear, I prefer a mascara that lenghtens and gives a bit of volume to my lashes. Nothing too bold, because together with eyeliner it would be an overkill. When going out, I like statement lashes, that usually means false eyelashes to me or a few coats of mascara.



L-R : Estee Lauder Sumptuous Mascara, Max Factor's Masterpiece Max, Maybelline's Full 'n' Soft



Sumptuous- Long lasting, curls up my lashes and gives volume :) Brush is easy to use and it's not big nor small. However it does clump when you apply over 3 coats but seriously, does anyone actually bother?

Masterpiece Max - curls up lovely, it's quite a natural effect without clump. Makes my lashes look HUGE. Really lenghtening mascara without a lot volume but i love it for daywear.

Full 'n' Soft - This one's a bit different to the other 2, it still retains the skill of curling but it gives more volume. The brush is not the smallest I've seen, it's a bit larger than average. The price is a bonus also :)
