This is it!

With my last Sephora order they sent me a sample of Tarte Lash Hugger Mascara. This is really the best mascara I've ever used. It's not a heavy mascara and washes off really easily yet stands up to the heat and humidity of Washington DC where I was last week. I love this mascara.

My favorite mascara is Japanese. It beats all American mascaras. You can find them in Japanese markets in the U.S or online.

It's call the Kiss Me Heroine Mascara.

It's waterproof but easy to take off. Never flakes or smudges. Holds a curl. I discovered it while on a business trip to Japan.

Another Diorshow fan - the waterproof one for me - it's fab!

Lancome

I used Diorshow for years, before I got a sample of the Lancome Defincils Waterproof. It stays on beautifully, no smudges even after all-nighters and stays on without looking cakey.

This one also works really well for me. I've also tried MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Expander Frame Plus 2009 edition and liked the Kiss Me Heroine Make Long & Curl better. Remove with an oil based remover or their corresponding makeup remover.

Here's a list of popular Japanese mascaras http://translate.googleusercontent.c...ueCd7vC_m1qQNg

Just a FYI - I was just at Costco and they had the Blinc mascara on clearance for $10.97. Was $15.99 at Costco.

If you like the way your lashes LOOK - you like the brush. If you like the WEAR, it is the mascara.

I always loved Lancome Defenicils, but didn't like the price...plus I didn't think it lasted very long. A former Lancome exec gave me the above "mascara rule"...and she was right.

Ever since, I have kept all my Lancome brushes..(washing them regularly, of course) and use a more reasonably priced, longer lasting mascara.

Keep the mascara sealed with the original brush, and use the original to apply the first coat or so. Use your fav brush to achieve your look, and you'll get the look AND wear you want!

Thanks for that tip Sophiegirl. I'm going to try that out. I always knew there was some magic in the brushes.

Loreal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara!

It's similar to the Blinc in that it creates little tubes around your lashes, but I usually only pay $8-10 each. I wash it off in the shower the next morning with just a little pressure. The only problem I've had is that I have to make sure I have my contacts on in the shower so that I can make sure that the little spent tubes go down the drain and don't get stuck to the shower wall or curtain, because they do stick if they dry.

Hoorah! I'm a fan of the Blinc tubing mascara but not a fan of the pricetag. Will definitely try this out.

A relative newcomer to the list

Benefit's They're Real Mascara
http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/prod...ew/theyre-real

Its not waterproof but stays on, and is so amazing I have been asked if my eyelashes are real so it is a perfect name! Love, love, love this stuff!

Only time I ever had any prob with it was flyfishing in 100+ degree Atlanta weather, but then my whole face melted I think!!
