Luscious lashes

mascara,loreal,beauty,make-up Loreal volume million lashes mascara

We\'ve been testing out the latest mascaras so you can get gorgeous, sexy lashes worth fluttering this summer. And, let\'s face it, with the World Cup taking over our screens this year a girl needs all the help she can get to distract any football crazy men away from the pub.

 

L\'Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes mascara

 

"I like accentuating my eyes so was interesting in trying L\'Oreal\'s latest mascara which claims to give a maxed-up, fanned-out effect. I love the chunky bottle and thick wand which I always find make sit easier to apply to corner lashes. After just one coat I was left with a dramatic, volumised effect that didn\'t clump or smudge making this is a great staple for day or night.

Une All in One mascara

"Une is the latest hot beauty brand on the block so I couldn\'t wait to try the new mascara which claims to lengthen, thicken and curl lashes. I did notice that my lashes looked thicker but I\'m not so sure about the longer or curlier part and I did find that it smudged quite easily. On a plus note, I have very sensitive eyes and this is the first mascara I have ever used that didn\'t irritate them and it was incredibly easy to remove making it a great buy for sensitive types looking for a natural look."

MAC Opulash

"This new mascara is amazing! Seriously it doesn\'t smudge, drop or flake at all and the fat wand gives lashes a great daytime look without being OTT. You can build up the mascara in the evening for a more glam finish and the best thing is you don\'t have to worry about panda eyes....at all!"

Guerlain Le 2 de Guerlain Volumising Mascara

"John Gustafson first introduced me onto these double-ended Guerlain mascaras and I\'ve never looked back. This new one is slightly different though as the small end is actually a foam wand - like you get on a lip gloss- which enables you to paint on a top coat of mascara for a really bold look. The main mascara end has a large, fat wand which coats lashes well and it\'s a really blacker than black colour. Addictive."

1-2-3 Looks Adjustable Volume Mascara by Rimmel

"If you like getting more for your money Rimmel\'s 1-2-3 Mascara may just be the wand for you, boasting three different looks for the price of one. Simply crank up the adjustable dial from 1, to achieve a subtle day look, turning it up to 2, for a little more va-va-voom, then to 3 to achieve full on luscious lashes."
