Top 5 Mascaras.



I know it's been a while since my last post but i have been so busy working i haven't had time to blog so I thought I'd kick things off with my top 5 mascaras.

In no particular order;

Maybelline The Falsies Express Waterproof
Maybelline Mega Plush Volum' Express
Maybelline Rocket Volume Express
Elf Lash Extending Mascara
L'Oréal Volume Million Lashes Excess

Now what seems to be the common denominator here is a plastic applicator, with the very slight exception of the Mega Plush Volum' mascara which although it looks like a regular bristle brush is actually made from plastic bristles. I love love love plastic brushes I feel that there Is more separation in the lashes and it gives a more defined look. I think my entire collection, bar maybe one or two are all plastic applicatiors. Im yet to find a regular brush that has wowed me enough to change my view. 

All 5 are affordable and are great for someone like me who likes good quality on a budget. I have only recently rediscovered my Maybelline mega plush mascara after finding it in one of my many bags, i will admit now i forgot completely that I had it. If i had to pick a favourite of the 5 i would be seriously torn between Maybelline Rocket Volume and Elf lash extending mascara, both of which will be coming on holiday with me again next month as they last well in heat (despite not being waterproof) and can last from morning to night without reapplication. Volume million lashes is also a great mascara and the only one I own from L'Oréal at the moment, the only thing that keeps me from using it as often as the rest it the smell. I cant describe what it is but its not wholly pleasant but maybe I just got a bad one. I first picked up the Maybelline Falsies mascara after watching one of Tanya Burr's many videos where she raves about it. I have to admit i do love it and the one i have is waterproof which i hadnt even noticed as it comes off well with my Bioderma micellar water and i've never had any trouble with it. I will definitely love to try some more mascaras so if any of you have any recommendations I'd love to hear them, especially if it will change my view on regular applicators.
