Dupe for Better than sex mascara

I’m in the minority that I don’t like better than sex at all. I prefer the maybelline mascaras - at their price point/when they are discounted you could possibly grab a couple to try? The colossal (yellow) would be a good place to start?

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like they can’t justify paying the extra money for a high end mascara?

There is a lot of makeup that I don’t purchase high end for, and mascara is one of them. Better than sex was only meh for me. Not worth the price. I think I received a sample at Ulta once.

What’s your HOLY GRAIL mascara?!

Icon Mascara by Il Makiage is my absolute favorite. Also, I haven’t used it in a while (but might get some now hah) but I used to love They’re Real by Benefit. For a less expensive option I love Maybelline Volum' Express Colossal Washable Mascara

Makeup recs for a 35yo in need of a refresh

Hourglass skint tint, Merit or Westman Atelier blush (beautiful!) and a cheap AF Maybelline mascara. I like the Colossal one. And a very fine eyebrow pencil from Beauty Pie. All super natural and lightweight, no effort. X

I need makeup, suggestions please!

Former pageant queen here. The best way to avoid the mess and the awkward stage we all went through at 13 of looking like a circus clown is to start small. Focus on the basics: face coloring, lips, and eyelashes. Remember that makeup is kind of like staining a deck. If you don't prep the surface rig

Hit me with your best mascara.

I feel like I've tried every one out there. Legit, from drugstore to high end. Every high end one people claim is worth the hype, I don't see it (YSL, Dior, etc.) The one I have gone back to for legit probably 15+ years is Maybelline Volum Express The Colossal mascara (typically in waterproof formul

For people who mostly buy lucury & prestige makeup: what do you still prefer from the drugstore?

Maybelline colossal mascara. I’ve been using it since high school and I’ve tried plenty of mid to high end mascaras and I always come back to this one.
