MAKEUP BEYU Beauty Queen Volume Mascara This is my favourite mascara with a regular, meaning non-waterproof, formula and I already miss it so much. Every mascara I get to try disappoints me in some or other way, but mostly because they don't keep my lashes at least a little bit curled. This one does everything I want - gives volume, definition and keeps my lashes lifted enough so I don't look like I have no lashes looking straight on. It can't compare to a proper waterproof mascara, but it does enough and it's easy to remove. The price is the thing that keeps me from buying it all the time, but every time a new disappointment lands in my mailbox, I regret not having this in my collection.   Repurchase: Yes. MAYBELLINE Volumin' Express the Mega Plush Mascara  Such a boring mascara, though not a useless one. It's so light and probably the most natural looking mascara I've tried. I had hoped this would thicken in time and start producing more volume, but that n...

MAKEUP  *BOURJOIS Eye Catching Mascara The latest mascara by Bourjois which comes in an adorable packaging with cats embossed on the cap. The brush is a classic one and it's dented (has shorter bristles) on one side, while the opposite side is very bushy. Formula looks thick and very creamy, but it's not a super messy type of formula like Catrice Lashes to Kill Pro . At first it created a natural & separated look with one coat, while several coats gave a moderate amount of volume. Now it's dried a bit and the volume is built up faster, though it's not as defining as it was from the start. For an "eye opening" mascara I expected it to both lift and hold lashes, but it does neither of these things. In fact I really put an effort in curling, plus added a thin layer of a waterproof mascara under it and yet this just dropped my lashes completely. It's an ok mascara in terms of being volumizing, but it's not for me because I want lift too. 13.49 € BEYU B...

BEYU Beauty Queen Volume Mascara   One of my favourite mascaras and one I was going to repurchase until I saw the price and then moved swiftly towards the Essence stand. But I still miss it. It's an all-in-one mascara, so gives me volume, length, it defines ok, manages to keep my lashes semi-lifted, so I actually look like I have lashes and it's easy to remove. It's just a great mascara. Repurchase: Yes , when I come to terms that if I want a nice mascara again, I'll have to pay 12 €. MAX FACTOR Voluptuous False Lash Effect Mascara  This was my second tube despite the even higher price tag than Beyu (why do drugstore mascaras have to be so expensive?! 7 € is the limit in my opinion). It's another all-in-one mascara with a very similar effect as Beyu, it's just a bit more defining due to the plastic brush. Usually such mascaras don't give much volume, but this truly great at creating big voluminous lashes. However, the other reason apart from the price as to ...
