I Have tried many different makes of mascara, this is by far the best, My job is selling Make up and Mascaras are a big part of that all the new mascaras are just one Gimmick after the next, 2 stage, Latex brush etc, well my two best selling and most recommended mascaras are the Max factor 2000 Calorie Dramatic Look for great looking lashes if you want mainly length then Loreal Telescopic is the one. Max factor claims: Make your lashes triple the volume with this ultra volumising mascara. Its bodybuilding formula fattens even the thinnest of lashes and gives them up to 300% volume instantly! With no need for primers, the first application stays touch proof and smudge proof for as long you need it to, but quickly and easily wipes away with a gentle eye make-up remover, so even sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers can enjoy a fuller flutter! All i can tell you is it is FANTASTIC!!
