Chanel inimitable, wonderful mascarra, I have tried everything and this is by far the best
Yes.
So I guess it's down to Chanel's Inimitable and YSL's Faux Cils! Which is better? Lol... this is hard!
It didn't pull off her lashes? I've read about that mascara, but I'm afraid I'd lose too many lashes pulling off the tubes.I have a friend who uses that and she LOVES it!! She showed me what it looks like when she takes it off-- all these little tube-y things in the sink. I thought it was pretty cool
Somehow the tube-y thing doesnt sound right to me - you'd think it would really break off your lashes.
Not that I know of
She used an oil-based makeup remover and the little tubes just slid right off...
I think they were talking about fiberwig from Japan. Never tried it, anyone?
Ive tried both, I keep going back to YSL. I wear contacts, and have sensitive eyes. I liked the Chanel, but I found at the end of the day I was left with sligh racoon eyes - not a good look.
chanel intimidable the regular one. i tried the waterproof one but was disappointed. after about a couple weeks, the tube got all flaky. never had that problem with the regular formula. also , the waterproof one at the end of the day would make me look a bit like a raccoon and quite difficult to remove. haven't tried the ysl, but heard good things about it. love the regular chanel intimidable that don't want to try anything else.
Does the Chanel one really thicken and add loads of volume tho? I read somewhere that it doesnt...
I've tried the fiberwig. It really lengthens your lashes, but doesn't thicken AT ALL. I wasn't impressed with it.
I like Lancome Definicils w/ a primer applied before the first coat. The Diorshow brush is way too big for me as I have small eyes.
Maybelline Greatlash is also good. I bend the brush, close to a 90 degree angle so that I can create a lot of volume at the base of my lashes all the way to the top. If you concentrate mascara at the top of your lashes it weighs them down.
My formula is 1 coat of primer, 1 coat Definicils, and 1 coat Greatlash. I have really smal eyes and short lashes. I get compliments all the time on them after this combo. Remember different mascaras are intended to do different things (i.e. lengthen vs. volumize vs. curl). Find the one or combination that meets your specific needs.
Also, shop at Sephora (in store) if possible because you can return or exchange anything that you are not 100% satisfied with. You also have the option of trying out a lot of different brands.
Hope this helps!!
