i dont know if any of you people out there agree but i have found the best mascara ever invented- CHANEL INIMITABLE. it gives you THE most beautiful eyelashes. if anyone else has found a better one id love to know but i think its doubtful!!:love:

So funny. When I saw title I thought of the new Chanel too. It is terrific. Someone told kme that YSL original one was great too, but I have not tried! Anyone know?
 
Shu Uemura basic in black, hands down.

Makes thin lashes look longer and thicker.

Makes long/thick lashes even longer/thicker.

The hold when you curl your lashes is amazing, lasts all day, no residue.

Use it with Laura Mercier Black Ebony Eye Liner along the lash line, and together it will open your eyes and make you look very engaged and elegant.
 
I have short wimpy lashes and bought DiorShow after I read all the rave reviews here and on Makeup Alley. It does a really great job of fattening them up but not the best on length. My Chanel SA gave me a really nice size sample of Inimitable and it rocks! I wore it and it looked like I had falsh lashes on. I will buy it after my Dior is gone.
 
does CHANEL inmitable smudge?? i have a heavy hand so i ususally apply 2-3 coats..and i realize that if i close my eyes, i get a black smudge underneath.....i want to find a NON waterprood mascara that does not smudge like that...
thanks!
 
I have very thin lashes but tons of them so they look real sprase until I put on Shu Basic which thickens them up just the right amount. For alittle more ump! on days I go out I'll wear Bobbi Brown Everything Mascara. BB everything gives me starlet lashes! So much volume and no clumping :)
 
i've tried many department store brands but none really did the trick for me. until my friend recommended me one from covergirl (the blue waterproof) i never thought i can find that perfect one for me. now that's all i use.
 
Well, I just ordered a 5 pack of Lancome Fatale from Ebay (won the auction for only 23 GBP:wlae:) since I've heard so many great thing about it!

I'll let you know how that works for me :yes:

So far I've been using a really cheap one: Essence Asia Lashes (about 2.50€) which works great for me, but I wanna "upgrade" my make-up collection ;)
 
ok I know this sounds crazy but for me it's neutrogenas weightless volume mascara. I have extremely long eye lashes so I don't need to lengthen them and this gives you the color you want without the build up. Try it if you haven't it's cheap and so worth it. I have tried many highend brands and I love Neutrogenas.

Dido! It's the only one i tried w/o build ups since i have to coat it over and over for my short asian eye lashes.
 
I am returning the YSL - I used it once and it irritated my eyes (very unusual for me) and gave me "racoon eyes" after half a day.

I am going to get the Dior Show instead - I had a free sample that I used up. It worked great for me and my sparse lashes.
 
I like DiorShow, but I heard a lot of great things about YSL effet faux cils, so I'm trying that one next... Anyone know anything about it?

I was hooked on YSL effect faux cils before I changed it over to dior ultimeys (...and now I'm using & loving diorshow unlimited which has smaller & advanced brush) - YSL was great stuff and made my lashes look amazing, but I had some trouble with it as I had to buy new one every 2 weeks, it was like too wet at first and then it just smudged the whole package...:wtf: I think they have now improved the package as I've heard I wasn't the onlyone having these problems. I havent tried the newest version.

I also tried DiorShow after reading about it here and I love it (the big brush took a little getting used to). The Dior SA at Bloomies recommended a different mascara for lengthening but it didn't come in waterproof which I prefer because I wear contacts. My lashes are moderately long anyway so I was more concerned with fattening. I may try the Inimitable, although I've never cared for Chanel mascara before. Anyone know if it comes in waterproof?
