    Hi all!

    So I was just curious what everyones favorite thickening / volumizing mascara was in the drugstore?  I use mascara every day so if I can find a good one available right down the street that would be awesome.  I did try Loreal’s Carbon Black Voluminous that Marlena likes but it irritated my eyes (maybe because I got waterproof?, anyone else had that problem?).  And the drugstores in my area don’t sell NYX or e.l.f. :(   Like I said I would prefer thickening / volumizing as my lashes are plenty long, just not as thick as they used to be and I like them to pop :)

    Thanks!

    Bourjois Volume Clubbing Mascara is good! It’s more fiddly than Carbon Black, as you need to scrape off the excess first, otherwise it’ll clump and go on all gloopy; you also need to twist the wand rather than just zigzag it like normal. If taking a bit more time isn’t a problem, then it gives you very dark, thick lashes. Max Factor’s False Lash Effect is better, imho, than the Carbon Black. It is more expensive, but I got mine off Ebay at half the store price, so that wasn’t a problem. I’ve heard that the waterproof version isn’t very good, as it’s so waterproof it takes days for it to come off properly, which sounds crazy. o_O

    I’m currently using the Max Factor False Lash Effect and the Bourjois Volume Clubbing in Brown. I only got the Bourjois one in brown because it was so much cheaper than the black, but it’s a very dark brown, so works just fine. What I do sometimes is layer them–one coat of Volume Clubbing and then one coat of False Lash Effect, and that really gives very long lashes. The first time I used them together both my mum and my older brother asked if I was wearing false lashes!

    Revlon Photoready 3D Volume. I started using it recently, and it’s fast becoming my Holy Grail mascara.

    Rimmel Sexy Curves Full Figure Mascara. Love it, and basically all the Rimmel mascaras. I know a lot of people love Cover Girls line of mascaras, but I could do without them.
