Musings of the Day: Fav Drugstore Mascara (US Drugstore)
Since discovering my favorite drugstore mascara I've wanted to shout the good word of it to all the masses.....well I already have kinda but I'll tell you about it again after the jump!
Ok, I'm speaking of US Drugstore brands here as there are way too many awesome Japanese drugstore mascaras that rock my little world. If you choose it does have to be a US brand...those be the rules kiddies!
My choice would have to be L'oreal Double Extend Mascara, whoa I really like this stuff, sincerely. I can't help myself but this stuff is pretty damn good. I've been using it daily for about a month now and simply lurve it. That's saying something as I normally fart in the general direction of any and all drugstore mascara finds in the US, sorry if you're a lover, I happen to be a leaver. But Double Extend changed my very life and made me a believer that great mascaras may still dwell within a US drugstore....
Brb I think I just heard an angel sing!
Name your fav mascara.
Remember US brands only, no cheating and playing with the big guns, we all know Japanese drugstore mascara rocks it so you must choose a US brand...if you can that is....
It'll be hard but I have confidence that you can do it!

full n soft, voluminous and beauty tubes, ofc :D
lash stylist is a runner up!
My favorite is Neutrogena's Healthy Volume. Ok, so it's simple :) It gives a nice natural look on me while still defining and opening up my eyes, and I've never had problems with clumps or globs. My favorite thing though is that it is really non-irritating. I have very dry eyes and although I can wear other mascaras, I can definitely "feel" how chemically they are. This one is not fumey at all, which is just rather nice.
Max Factor 2000 Calorie
I normally fart in the general direction of
lmao, stay classy big girl! x
Now that American/UK drugstore mascaras aren't in easy access for me, they're all I can think about! There are actually loads that I like:
Maybelline The Colossal
Maybelline Define-a-lash Volume
Max Factor False lash effect a.k.a. Lash Plumper
Max Factor Lash Perfection Volume
Max Factor 2000 calorie
L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon black....
only one? Jeez. Ok, I'd go for the Max Factor Lash Plumper. Ultimately my lashes are all about my Shiseido lash curler and mascara base but the Max Factor adds the final crowning glory. I haven't tried the Cover Girl lash blast but I hear it's the big drugstore smash stateside.
Probably Rimmel London Sexy Curves.
That stuff is redonkulous.
And maybe Lash Stiletto.
CoverGirl Lashblast all the way! It almost looks like I'm wearing fake lashes & it hold a curl all day long.
I actually have TWO favorite Drug Store Mascaras: Maybelline Lash Stiletto, and Max Factor False Lash effect mascara!
Hmmm.... I'll go for Rimmel Glam Eyes. :)
Maybelline's Full & Soft waterproof mascara!!
I love the L'Oreal Double Extend too! Length is my number one priority with a mascara...and it comes off so easily! (The likkle tubes get stuck in my facecloth though.) I feel like the primer coat either conditions or protects my lashes- they always feel really soft when the tubes come off.
I love playing with drugstore mascaras since if they flop, you can always afford another one.
I don't think I have a favorite drugstore mascara. I used the awful Maybelline Great Lash for years because all the magazines said it was the best. Gross!
After I discovered my Clinique mascara, I haven't felt like experimenting with other mascaras.
hey sarah!
Haven't tried :-D Must add to the old wish list!
hi julie!
Interesting! You sound very sensitive. My sister might like this as she has way sensitive eyes and tears up with many mascaras :-D
Thanks for sharing!
hello Southern Angel!
Good pick! I've heard lots of great things about this.
hehe ;-D
too much monty python anonymous :-D
hi bora!
I always find it interesting that you lem us drugstore brands...I absolutely abhor most of 'em :-D
I like Colossal too! That was a good one :D The rest I haven't tried yet :-D
Lash Blast really?! I'm so out of the US drugstore loop lol must check this out! :-D
hi Eleanor
Good pick! Like this too :-D
Haven't tried stiletto yet though!
hi Trisha
Was just discussing that above :-D haven't yet but all these raves have me excited!
hi Jamilla Camel!
Must try stiletto everyone keeps telling me it's awesome :-D
hello connie!
Good pick! I like some of rimmel's mascaras :D
hi paige!
Haven't tried but sounds good :-D
hello laura!
Yay! Another fan :-D The only thing I hate is removal as I'm so used to using an oil based remover that I can't get used to simply using some warm water and soap heeh!
I really should indulge further in ds brand mascaras as you're right if it stinks simply toss it!
hi pixie!
LOL very overrated mascara I think ;-D
Clinique does a few good mascaras :-D I think I rotate way too much, wish I can just go back to using MJ but lately I've been busy experimenting!
hehe!
I too love the L'oreal Double Extend Mascara and CoverGirl LashBlast Luxe in Black Cabernet!
hey tammy!
yay another fan :-D
must try the cg lashblast especially since everyone is loving all over it :-D
Max factor 2000 calories mascara is the best in my humble opinon :)
I'm not a fan of the lashblast because it just did not work for me :(!!
Hi aretha!
Must try this....I hear alot about it on MUA! I haven't tried lashblast yet but lots of raves about it...I'm always so scared of ds mascara most times it's a fail for m :(
Loreal Double Extend is my favorite too! But on days when I need to hurry and don't have time to do double coating, CG Last Blast waterproof is my best bet. :)
hi wanda!
I really need to try this CG LB it sounds great :-D
glad to see we have another double extend fan!
cover girl fantastic lash mascara, but my mom was a sucker for maybelline great lash washable.
but we're drug store types :)
