The new L'oreal one is fab. you put the white on then the black. but the difference is that the black bit doesnt have a normal brush, its a comb instead. I have long eyelashes anyway but i put it on my mum who has none and it made hers look much better.
I recommend it :thumb:

how much is it, i bet it's about £10?
In complete and utter agreement. It's quite pricey but lasts for ages and is worth every penny!
sounds familar!
I love exciting eye makeup but I just can't get it right. I'm still trying to master eyeliner on the upper lids! :shocking:
i usually get a new one every 3 months. when it's only £4, i can afford to, and it stops the clumpiness.
failing that, try wiping the wand on a tissue before you put it on.
I loved the Maybelline black/white one and MAC do a nice one too...

I had the pink and green Maybelline great lash mascara in black for a while, and though it had great colour, it didn't really lift or volumise them. Just made them a bit pointy.
My last mascara (which I ran out of the day before yesterday) was fab, even though it was Boots 17, and like a £1 cheaper than the others. I can't remember the name, but its a light blue tube. However, I still prefer my new Rimmel one.
I've never really bothered with mascara too much, my eyelashes are already dark, tend to only use it in the evenings or on nights out..
I have this really nice Clinique mascara that made my eyelashes look really pretty and long though, it's probably the best mascara that I've used. I liked it cos it didn't really make it obvious, it just looked like I had naturally long eyelashes. I hate it when people cake the stuff on and get all of their lashes stuck together.
I'm guessing they must use like, really old cakey mascara for the 'clumpy effect'?

aye, same with me. my bottom lashes are almost totally blonde in the summer though, so i look a bit freaky without mascara on.
I've a friend who won't leave the house with out mascara on - she has blonde eyelashes - once she came to school without it and when i pointed it out to her she drove all the way back home put her mascara on and drove all the way back to school.
if i dont wear any other make up i wear my mascara. it makes your eyes look bigger.
Mind you - Christian Dior are meant to be the bees-knees in mascara's!
I bought the new l'oreal white/black mascara from superdrug at the weekend and couldn't believe how bad it was.
I've used white/black mascaras before (boujwois and maybellines i think) and thought they looked fab and really made my eyelashes look longer.
With the l'oreal one however, I found the white mascara made my eyelashes look more defined, but as soon as I applied the black comb macara my lashes went instantly clumpy, to the extent that in the end it gave the impression I had 6 lashes in all!
I took it all off with eye make up remover and tried again, but once again my lashes went v v clumpy.
I'm not sure it's because I'm not used to the comb macara wand, but I've never had this problem when I've used other mascaras!
Anyone had the same experience or got any tips?
Thanks
Seriously, the Avon one of those is okay
