5 Best Mascaras – Expert Reviews …

1. Chanel Inimitable …

a.k.a. “Mascara Multidimensionnel”

Expert’s Opinion:

“Chanel Inimitable is by far the best mascara I ever tried! I’ve been using it for over a year now and applying it is the best part of my daily makeup routine – I just know that this mascara makes my lashes look their best every day. I love it!” says my best friend and beauty expert Laura K.

Description:

Now, in a single stroke, Chanel sets a new standard in mascara with a formula that does it all. A sophisticated formula and unique brush design combine to lengthen, plump and curl, delivering lush, long-wearing colour so precisely that each lash, even the finest, is perfectly defined and separated.

Our Opinion:

Being a make-up junkie I tried it all from Maybelline for $2.99 to DiorShow for $40 (that’s what they charge for it in Moscow, can you believe it!?). But Chanel Inimitable beats them all! Just like the ad says, with the first stroke you get the lashes you’ve always wanted! But of course you will need an eye lash curler before you apply the mascara. Your lashes will be spectacular, if you always thought that you had thin and not pretty eyelashes, this is the mascara to prove you wrong, it will make them look gorgeous! The best mascara ever!

Usual Complaints:

- if you are looking for a very dramatic look and very thick eye lashes – that’s not the right mascara for you, it gives a natural look to the eye lashes (as in the ad of Chanel Inimitable below).
- very pricey

Average Price: $27.50 at Chanel.com

So, there you go, dear beauties, the best 5 mascaras there are in existence to choose from to get those beautiful lashes of yours even thicker and longer! :)

Have you tried any of these 5 top mascaras? How did you like them? Or do you know about a mascara that tops them all? Please do share in the comments, I’d love to hear which mascara’s been best for you…

T’ve used a Waterproof Lancome for years-it was ok, I wasn’t crazy about it-but it worked better than the others-I am aa bartender (in a high volume nightclub)
the ‘racoon eyes’ weren’t so bad with the Lancome-
NOW I just want a mascara that doesn’t come out all gloppy, goes on nicely AND looks fabulous-(AND wont bother my contacts making my eyes dry and red…that’s ANOTHER ‘look’ and i’d rather NOT)
ANY thoughts???

[...] make your look more dramatic and expressive than beautiful long full eyelashes. But even with the best mascara, only a few of us can achieve that result. Luckily, we always can rely on our little beauty secret [...]

Im using the Waterproof Lancome to and I wont switch.

Need you advice!

So if I’ll buy Chanel Inimitable as present for my sweetheart – she will be happy – right ?

Or maybe it’s better to check something other ?
6 Dan, 04/30/08 at 11:13 pm

Idea!

can you show your eyes/face with these mascaras ?
if you use any from this list ?

it must be interesting – don’t you think ?

I agree that the Chanel Inimitable delivered its promise. Having short and sparse lashes, this defintely made a big difference. Well worth the price tag!

12 Ice, 05/20/08 at 12:05 am

Id love to have these as gifts too.
13 Antonia, 09/17/08 at 10:54 pm

Oh My Goodness!!! I cannot belive that Lancome DEFINICILS is not on this list. I have been using this mascara for so many years, and have never used anything that came close. When I use this, especially the times that i reapply a few times to get the fullest effect, people have accused me of wearing false lases! ITs that good!! Try it and you will not be disappointed, trust me! : )
14 Olga Moore, 09/17/08 at 11:50 pm

Dear Antonia,

You are so right! How could we forget the classic of the classic – the Lancome Definicils Mascara!

Thank you so much for reminding! I’ll make sure we include it in the next update of the post!

17 Five Tips on How to Get Rid of Under-Eye Dark Circles and Puffiness, 10/16/08 at 11:17 am

[...] It could be a symptom of an allergic reaction or kidney infection. If other symptoms are also present, such as fever, skin rash, or difficulty breathing, consult your doctor right away. If an allergy is involved, find out what foods you are allergic to and eliminate them from your menu. The most frequently occurred allergies are to newfangled foods, such as commercial pasteurized milk from hormone-treated cows, processed grains, fruits and veggies with residual pesticides, and other products that people had never eaten until just several generations ago. Allergies can also be caused by commercial beauty products, such as under-eye creams or mascaras. [...]

I´ve tried most of Lancome’s mascaras and like many. Fatale, Hypnose, Définicils and Virtuose are all solid… but Fatale especially. My teeny tiny lashes look fab – get long and thick and it stays put for glistening tears, sweat and moderate rain. Love it.

Diorshow is absolute rubbish – overpriced and delivers nothing but smudges and clumps.

Great lash is ok for those who don’t need much help. I have a lot of low maintenance girlfriends who think it is sufficient enough.

Helena Rubinstein mascaras I used quite a lot in my teens. Spectacular and Generous and later Lash Queen I tried. Liked them at the time but doubt I would now. Lash Queen underdelivers.

Kanebo 38° mascara is a very strange mascara. What is good about it is that it is easy to wash off and yet you can go swimming in it… just not in 38° C hot water. Flaw – it kind of combines lashes so it looks a bit cartoon-ish.

Estee Lauder – unexciting.

Clarins – for a very natural look – a bit boring.

Bourjois – have liked some.

Well ladies – I´ve given you my two cents on mascaras… Hope it will be of use.
