Essence Lash Princess literally melts away from one moist finger touch so it's definitely impossible that it doesn't smudge on You, unless you wore it for like a couple of hours or so. It smudges above the eye due to sebum and lower lashes are gonzo if you sweat a bit or your eyes water. But it's great for easy removal, obviously.
@@glacialimpala I got that mascara based on a review on it and it is so annoying. It melts off all over my eyelids and lower eye. Flakes and clumps. I can't understand why it would even be in a review. I've just bought the sky high one so I hope that's better x
@@glacialimpala , I definitely agree with you . I loved how Essence Lash Princess applied at the beginning how it lengthen and kept my lashes curled but I work a 12 hour shift as a RN and it melted away super quick. I was hoping it would last longer than a few hours since I can always touch up my make up during breaks but no matter how vigilant I was in checking for smudges whenever I go to the bathroom , the smudges ARE always there. I don’t even wear this anymore when I’m off from work , it was super smudgy ,.
I can't believe how many people seem so upset that she has naturally good lashes and created a mascara review video. The shame! Lol People with naturally good lashes can have preferences for mascara too...I am so sick of the negativity online
I get what you mean but i'd like to see someone with short straight or thin lashes so i can relate. Her lashes is already thick and long so anything she will put on will look decent or good.
I've discovered that the Essence Lash Princess mascaras work wonderfully if you apply them and then go back with a brush that can separate. That extra steps makes it 60% even better than it is.
i always used their other mascaras but i’m super excited to attempt their lash princess mascaras! i have long eyelashes but recently theyve become brittle, sparse and fall out. :( i need volume and length back
@@who8518 hands down the OG lash princess is a HG. However, it does transfer but I just give it a quick swipe bc my lashes look like falsies with it so it's worth it!
She applies the mascara way differently than I do, thus getting differently results. Technique is everything. I wiggle the wand to get any clumps out and squint my eyes so the wand helps my lashes curl with the maybelline Sky high mascara. If you just blink it on the mascara, clumps can form very easily and it looked like she was putting on the mascara in the same area multiple times which I do but not as much as she does. I get my lashes to be more separated and less clumpy that hers do.
I love the Sky High mascara. Adds great length to my lashes and doesn’t clump or smudge for me! It’s my new favorite. I also love the L’Oréal Lash Paradise mascara. These are def the two mascara that I will be sticking with for awhile.
I have been saying lash sensational is the best FOR YEARS!!! I’m so excited you ranked it the same!! I too was an irrational drugstore mascara buyer and picked up lash sensational and then never went back!!! It’s my go to!
Abbey, I can't thank you enough for this video. I've spent hundreds of dollars on high-end mascara (Chanel, YSL, etc.) and tried Maybelline Lash Sensational Full Fan Effect Mascara after seeing this video. OMG, it is just as good as any of the high end mascaras I've used...I'm switching to
I use the Essence Lash Princess (green tube and blue one to have waterproof option) and before applying, I use L’Oréal lash primer (white tube) and I find better separation and better length - gives a more defined false lash look (: L’Oréal Lash Paradise is also a favorite along with the pink tube lash primer (:
Finally, someone who loves the Lash Sensational! I will say I can get a great lash must faster with Lash Paradise, but I don't mind the work needed for the Lash Sensational. Try the Lash Sensational in the black tube - it has a brush like the Sky High but stiffer, and it's insane! I miss the curved brush for curl but there is something just a little extra special in the black tube with the purple writing.
Do you use the waterproof version of Lash Paradise? Cause I’m using Lash Paradise but it’s accidentally bought the waterproof one and it’s very wet and clumpy and makes my eyelashes fall out.
My go to is L’Oréal Double Extend lash tubes. Doesn’t come off or flake even after a super sweaty Zumba class. I enjoyed Maybelline Sky High the first 3-4 times I used it and then it just went clumpy for me. Thanks for the informative video! ❤️
Maybelline Sky High performed and lasted the same for me, good at first, then a few uses later, it was clumpy. I'm older, but honestly, I think mascaras from years back were much better than today's, except for Maybelline, it was the one that would smudge off within a few hrs. Back in the day, Covergirl mascaras were much better than all of these different ones today, and unfortunately today's Covergirl is nothing like what it use to be, and very disappointing. I wish they had just stuck with what they once had.
I actually use the Lash Paradise AND Lash Sensational together and let me tell you.....perfection! My fave has ALWAYS been the Lash Paradise. I've tried soooooo many different ones and I just keep going back to that.
Lash Paradise IS the best!! I also use the Loreal Primer as well. I have tried dozens of mascaras over the last 20 years, and Lash Paradise is the only one I use. No smudge, no clumping, just long. gorgeous lashes.
@@trupti13indoaussie Hi.. During the summer I use waterproof, due to the humidity here in Vegas. Nothing worse than having your mascara run down your face. Otherwise, just the regular Las Paradise. Use some primer with it (I recommend Loreal) It lengthens your lashes even longer, with the Lash Paradise. Have a nice weekend!
You should try L’Oreal Telescopic mascara. I’ve been using it for years, & it’s been the only drugstore mascara (that I’ve tried) that holds my lashes up. I love it! I’m looking forward to trying the Maybelline mascara you ranked #1.
I have and love both. The waterproof Lash Princess stays on so well the only thing I find that gets it off is the Garnier micellar water with the blue cap.
Telescopic is my favorite too. I have the shortest lashes ever, so the super skinny wand is a dream for me. Those huge curved wands are a disaster, mascara all over my lid no matter how careful I am.
Obviously mascara is such a personal item. I still and will ALWAYS rate the Essence in the green tube as the best mascara on the market, high end or drugstore
I like it but I find it very messing and clumpy and wet. I changed back to the L'Oréal telescopic. I prefer a dryer seperating mascara but it's definitely a personal thing
For the longest time I’ve been using the lash paradise just towards the base and middle of my lash for volume, and the lash sensational at the ends to lengthen and separate. It’s my absolute favorite combo!!
I've been wearing lash sensation for years and I love it. So no need to change. But I am interested to try Sky High, so I think I'll still give that a go and then revert to my trusted classic.
@@bri_marie_ the original one, but... The sky high is good. My mum's now trying it because the skinny brush is good at picking up smaller lashes in the corners.
If you like Lash Sensational, try the one in the black tube with purple writing. It has a different wand but I swear it is somehow better than the original - and the original was a fav of mine for several years! It doesn't curl quite as well, but it outperforms the original in every other way for me. When I need quick, the Essence or the Lash Paradise is faster, but the results are better with Lash Sensational if I take a little extra time with it.
Abbey you should try covergirl exhibitionist mascara - you'll love it! (especially since your top 3 are my top 3 as well, in addition to the Covergirl one!)
It's very interesting how these mascaras work differently for different people. It probably depends on the length and volume of the natural lashes, on how watery your eyes are or how oily the eyelids can get. I've tried all of these mascaras but my favorite one is the Maybelline The Falsies Lash Lift Mascara. It gives me the most length and separation and the most important - it stays put all day. All the other ones are smuggling on me. The Essence ones smug like no other.
It is crazy how opposite my favorites are from yours! I hated Lash Paradise and Sky High and my absolute favorite is Cover Girl Lash Blast. I have long lashes, and I love the volume that one gives me. And it washes off the easiest. Even if I don't agree, I loved the video and I loved seeing the comparisons! It's really helpful!
YES! I love Covergirl Lash Blast also. I have long but straight lashes and I notice the curl holding throughout my 12 hr shift and the volume is amazing too! Doesn't dry bc I don't have to put the brush in and out the tube....one coat it good enough! 💜
Hmm.. I love Cover Girl lashblast too,and was just getting ready to give lash paradise a try. But now I wonder if I should. Do you mind telling me why you " hate it" I don't want to waste my money
@@monicshastings8945 Lash Paradise's formula starts out a lot drier than Lash Blast, so the tube didn't "last" as long. I like to comb through my lashes after putting on the mascara, and since Lash Paradise was so dry, it would flake almost immediately as I was combing through. Even if I didn't comb, there would be flakes on my cheeks throughout the day. Finally, Lash Blast seems to be the mascara that washes off the easiest at the end of the day. It lasts the longest on me, but isn't isn't difficult to remove. Lash Paradise (and Sky High) need a dedicated eye makeup remover or something.
@@happyhappy101 First off, thank you for answering and giving a well thought out review. It was really helpful. We seem to have simpatico views on mascara. I also like all the things you mentioned about lash blast mascara, including how easy it is to remove. I also like how it gives such volume with just one coat, yet looks smooth and natural and not spikey -so no spider leg lashes. money. All the things you mentioned about lash paradise I wouldn't like either. I also like to comb out my lashes to separate and remove clumps, so I wouldn't be looking forward to having a lot of it comb out and wind up with mascara flakes under my eyes. So now I know not to waste my money on lashparadise. * If you should ever happen to be a little tight on money, I've found that Wet n Wild Mega Volume mascara is very similar to lashblast but only a fraction of the cost. Approximately only $ 3 at Winco grocery store Or if on sale at drug store, which they also sometimes be BOGO
yes, I think that us people with glasses will notice the flakyness much sooner. because most flakes would be so small they wouldn't stick to your undereye area. btu they do stick to the insides of glasses and grrrr it makes me go crazy
Just a recommendation... the Gigi Blacklash Mascara from Mac. It’s sooo good! I love simple, natural, and high quality beauty products and this mascara hits all of those points!
I love lash sensational! It was my absolute favorite for years but then I found the Loriel telescopic and have been using that for about the last 2 years. This has made me want to go back and try the lash sensational again but I would definitely recommend trying the telescopic if you haven’t already!
I love the telescopic too. I have the shortest, stubbiest lashes ever so that super skinny wand is the only one that doesn't get mascara all over my lid. Those huge curved wands are a disaster for me, I need that micro precision haha
@@elizabethcoheeI agree ! I have short lashes and the l’oréal telescopic works wonder!. I also like the maybelline lash sensational but i’ve not used it since using the telescopic
I can't believe my holy grail L'Oreal voluminous is in last place! I've been using it for years so I do need to experiment and will try your first place choice. Love your thorough reviews!
The maybelline sky high mascara is the best I've tried. If you want longer lashes/brows, The silly George lash serum is honestly amazing. I've been through two tubes and I can most definitely say that it works!
Honest question; does everyone use this much mascara with each coat? I can't get my lashes to look like yours using that much product....it ends up looking extremely clumpy. Yours look amazing!!
I've used 5 of the mascaras she used and my lashes never looked like that with any of them esp Lash Princess they'd be a massive clumpy mess or I'd have mascara all over my eyelids. I would call her first application 3 coats at least and I usually do 2 coats. Not sure if she wipes off the wand first? Interested to see the mascara secrets video.
For me, it's most about ease of removal at night, that's why I only use TUBING mascara now. My faves are Loreal Beauty Tubes and Thrive. Loreal Beauty Tubes NEVER smears during the day, even rain getting on your face and you literally hold a cotton pad with water to your eye for 20 seconds and the tubes slide off. The BEST
@@janicerainey8687 hey I found this on google: "Regular mascaras use oils, waxes and dyes, whereas tubing mascaras have polymers that wrap around each individual lash. This creates 'tubes' that encase each lash giving you a very even application. It may sound strange, but tubing mascaras are actually smudge-proof and are super easy to remove!" hope it helps
Actually I liked the orange one on you the most😍 unfortunately I tried the No.1 mascara and I liked how it performed, but my goodness it was soooo hard to take it off 😩 that’s why my favorite one is the L’Oréal lash paradise 🙌👌 great video, thank you so much 💕💕
Thanks Abbey, this is so helpful. Your natural lashes are gorgeous!! Rimmel discontinued my 1-coat magical HG years ago (natural, classic fat & fluffy wand). I use Essence Princess (green) and I'd be happy to repurchase. I'm willing to spend more if the product is truly worth it for me. For the budget conscious, there are products for reviving mascara, definitely worth trying as they unlock a lot of product. For those based in UK, I decant Boots Traditional Glycerin and Rosewater into spray bottle. A quick spray into mascara tube, then shake, works wonders.
Crazy how different everyone’s lashes are! Ive tried most of this list and essence lash princess (green) is my number 1 of all time!! It’s not even a “it’s good for the price” situation, it’s genuinely my favorite out of every mascara I’ve ever tried, ever.
The Maybelline Lash Sensational is the best for me! I’ve tried so many other ones and always come back to it. I typically use that first then layer it with another brand for volume. When I don’t use it, there’s a noticeable difference.
@@MandaL0814 i use all different kind to be honest. Mostly IT super hero (another fav) or Better than sex. Those are just the ones that I’ve found worked for me with the Maybelline. I’m sure any volumizing will work though. I honestly think the best results come from the Maybelline.
This is my favorite mascara too! I don't love other mascaras as much as i do this one. Another question - did you notice that your lashes weakened at the beginning?
My new favorite is "They're Brilliant" by LACURA that I bought at Aldis. It has a very unique plastic wand and the waterproof formula is amazing, it does not smudge. I never expected to find an amazing mascara at a grocery store but for under $4 dollars I was willing to give it a try. It also appears I have less lash fall out since I started using this mascara which would also contribute to my lashes looking longer and thicker.
I recently bought the Maybelline waterproof lash sensational and I was honestly super amazed. I don’t wear mascara only on special occasion. I tried this after not wearing mascara for like the longest time & I really liked it !
Your favourite has been mine for years!! -I love this one because its one of very few mascaras that dont leave black smudges under the eye after one hour or more of use!!
Took your advice and tried the Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara after using the Essence Lash Princess for over a year. Previously only used pricey high-end mascaras but these two are as good as any IMO. I agree that the Lash Sensational is a terrific mascara. Volume is where it falls a bit short. For me the Maybelline lash sensational #1 and the Essence lash princess #2
Omg same with the cover girl I swore by it years ago but recently I have been looking for a new and improved mascara I think I’ll give the maybelline lash sensational one a try! Thank you!
I just CAN’T with plastic bristles. Man your lashes are amazing. Mine are long but dang yours make me want to do grande lash or something to get more of them! L’Oreal lash paradise or the purple essence mascara are my go-to’s at the drugstore.
I know you're probably joking, but fyi, look into the risks with lash serums before doing it, I tried grande lash and eventually took it back bc of the possible side effects.
The sky high is my new fav! Definitely a learning curve with the flexible wand, but it makes my lashes look amazing and it does not budge!! I don't like the lash sensational bc I have hooded eyes with decently long lashes and I always get mascara on my lids if I work up the length with any mascara, and with that one I can't let it dry and flake it off with a q-tip or brush without ruining my eyeshadow.
I’m actually disappointed of the purple Essence Lash Princess mascara. I agree with you, it’s so so wet and while applying it, it stains my whole eyelid and after a few hours of wearing it, it smudges on my undereye area, even when I don‘t apply lower lash mascara 😕
Yea Maybelline mascaras! Lash Discovery is always my first coat, and then Lash Sensation or Sky High... have tried some of those, but Maybelline has my favorites.
I’ve used L’Oréal Voluminous for years and really like it but I’m a senior and like to keep a more natural look. I came online looking since I needed a new tube and I saw your video. Very helpful, I really liked the comparisons and I’m going to order your number 1 pick. Thanks for the tip, Abbey.
OMG I was thinking the same thing. I wanted before pictures to see what her lashes were like before application because her lashes look perfect for all of them!
Yes I’ve also just discovered the plastic mascara wand works best for my lashes… I did a side by side comparison today of the maybeline sensational lash and the grandefanatic mascara ….the grande won…try it💋
I’m loving the sky high mascara with IT cosmetics over it. I hate the IT cosmetics by itself because it’s all volume and no length but over a lengthening mascara it’s awesome! I haven’t tried lash paradise yet but I will now. Thanks! Loved your video!
Lash Paradise by L'oreal is where it's at for me, as far as drugstore mascaras. I want good coverage in one coat, no clumps and I don't care that much about volume. I want lift and length, and I feel like it improves the quality of my lashes as well.
I always layer using a lengthening mascara first, then a volume one. My go to for a long time was the Covergirl green then orange (Clump Crusher then Volume). It's been a few years, I wonder if I'd like it now 🤔 I've been trying only using one mascara at a time, but can't find one I like.
For me personally i prefered the mascaras in the opposite order. I like a dryer formula because i like a more natural lash but i did really like the Lash Sensational.
Same here! I really think a lot of these mascaras could have benefited from a metal lash comb and less coats ...just my opinion. I think I tend to prefer a more wispy/defined lash.
Thanks for the detailed review - this will be most helpful. I would like to ask - have you ever played with a different color palette regarding your blush? Something in the cool pink berry tones instead of golden range. I would love to see how that looks on you with your hair, eye and skin color....just a thought. Thank you pretty woman.
Hi Abbey I just bought the Maybelline sky high today and will try it tomorrow. My favourite mascara of all time is the Benefit they're real - never smudges, gives good length and separation, doesn't flake or clump etc. i also like a slim wand as i have smaller eyes with hooding, big fat/hourglass wands get mascara everywhere on me. I don't mind a flexible wand btw - it allows me to get all the lashes. I don't like clumps or too much "volumising". The essence lash princess smudges on me like crazy - even the waterproof one smudges everywhere, but I like the brush. The new essence one doesn't smudge, but it's more volumising and has a fat brush - works as a topper to something else for longevity. I'm hoping I'll really like the sky high, but we'll see. Best wishes. ps they all looked good on you on the first coat - some of them not so much on the second coat.x
Thank you for the video. Have you considered changing your mascara application technique? I feel like some of these mascaras (like the essence one) preform much better with the wiggle technique
Hi Abbey, just wanted to say that I loved the methodology you used for clasifying the mascaras. I love ratign things and you doing it gives more confidense when choosing my next mascara. Love your videos!
My favourite mascara is Maybelline the Rocket Volum' Express. I haven't yet found another brush that separates my lashes so well and with which I can actually get good-looking results :) I usually just end up using the Rocket wand with other mascaras I have...
So interesting that you mentioned some of the others being dry - I found the Lash Paradise to be so dry I could barely get 4-6 weeks out of a full size tube. The Lash Sensational was too wet for me at the start but after a couple of weeks it was really nice.
i also was wondering about why my lash paradise ran out so fast, but then i saw it has much less in it than all the other mascaras. so it makes sense it runs out faster. bums me out that they still charge the same price for it though :/
just a tip for everyone: if your mascara is drying out, heat up a cup of water for about 30-45 seconds and drop the tube in there. By the time you get to that step, the mascara won’t be as dry :)
Thank you for making this video. I appreciate your rating system and all the details you provide for both the video and information section. I also love the time stamps.
I just bought the winner (Lash Sensational) for the second time in the waterproof version, and it's very good! I have also used Lancome mascaras in waterproof versions (Hypnose, Monsieur Big) and I'd say that I'd be satisfied buying the waterproof Lash Sensational in the future. I get really false lash looking lashes with Monsieur Big, but you need to wipe extra product from the wand and it's annoying. The brush is huge and makes the mascara application a bit dangerous (smudging). The Lancome Hypnose is much more convenient for everyday use and there's no excess product in the wand. But I'd say that the finish result is so similar with the Lash Sensational, that it literally makes no sense to pay extra to buy the Lancome if Maybelline is as good. Where I live, the price of the Lancome on sale is double the price of the Maybelline on sale. If I'd buy a new tube every 3 months, I would definitely choose Maybelline, but in reality I don't open a new one so often, so I might pick the high end once a while. I have to buy waterproof mascaras because non-waterproof formulas melt in my eyes even if I just stay at home doing nothing. I've also used the Loreal Million lashes in the purple tube and it is a good one for everyday use but it's not very volumizing. I believe that's a tubing formula that melts with warm water. To say something from my mascara preference, I would have stopped the mascara layers way before she did. I don't want to see lashes clumping together, and I prefer separation and length over volume.
I've used Maybelline Define-a-lash for YEARS. It holds curl really well on my straight lashes. I love plastic wands, so maybe I will try out the Lash Sensational sometime soon!
I wish more drugstore brands would go cruelty free. For that reason I stick with my Essence Lash Princess mascaras. Maybelline Lash Sensational was my favorite for a long time. I also like more wet mascara formulas and the curved wand. I think I’ll try the purple lash princess next time. I’ve only ever tried the green one.
Been using this mascara for YEARS! I'm not surprised it's #1 on your list. Thank you for trying other mascaras so I don't have to, it helped cure my curiosity of other types :)
My new favorite is Covergirl Lash Blast Clean Volume in the light blue tube. It's both lengthening and volumizing and NO clumps! I use 2 coats and it's fantastic. It's not great for the bottom lashes, the wand is pretty chunky so I use something else, but I was pleasantly surprised and have purchased 3 times now.
Ever since I got poked in the eye with a mascara wand getting my makeup done for a dance competition I’ve been terrified of mascara 😂 but you’ve helped me get back in the game 😊
I have the brown waterproof lash blast and it sucks for eyelashes.... however, it is an amazing substitute for a brow gel and is all I use on my brows. Doesn’t budge or smudge no matter what you get up to.
I have the brown lash blast(non-waterproof). It’s super good for a natural lash however, it bother my eyes if I wear it more than a couple hours. Does the waterproof at least last?
@@BellaBelle909 hi I used it on my lashes once and it literally made no difference in their appearance so I repurposed it as a brow gel/pomade. Sorry I can’t be more helpful 🤷🏼♀️
For me the winners were lash sensation and max factor. I love a separated no clump not too wet formula. My favourite right now is the L'Oréal telescopic
i have really straight eyelashes and without an eyelash curler or waterproof mascara there be no hold which is why voluminous lash paradise makes my eyelashes hold, they look thicker, and length is pretty good, an oldie great lash maybelline waterproof is great on its own or use as a topper or first coat of mascara and than add l'oreal waterproof voluminous or lash paradise on top. l'oreal voluminous doesn't add length but it makes eyelashes look fuller. The essence mascara waterproof in a blue tube is a good one too holds well but found hard to get off if you don't use an waterproof eye make up remover, the lash princess weights my eyelashes down...mascara junkie, will have to give the lash sensational mascara a try, been eyeing it
@@r.and.s.23 revlon or twizzer man. Have been trying the Quo eyelash curler but the shape is slightly smaller than the other two, its cheap compared to the revlon or twizzerman. Plus for the Quo eyelash curler is that it's $6 in canada, and it come with more of the rubber cushions than the other 2. The revlon eyelash curler changed, it's now in gold and the ruber cushion is not the same as it used to be, the twizzerman eyelash curler is like the old silver revlon one which is my favourite just wish it came with more than one cushion or that the cushions were sold separately.
Maybelline lash sensational has been my favorite mascara since high school! I remember being SHOOK when I first used it back then and getting so many compliments on my eyelashes after using it! Still to this day have not found a better mascara for a better price!
I tried your blinking tip and omg, I am pleasantly surprised to say that this is a total game changer! My mascara usually looks like it is gone by evening, but after using your tip I got great coverage and it lasted until I took it off. Thanks so much!
I recently got the sky high, and combining it with the Lash Paradise is just... Yes. Used the Lash Paradise for years before getting the sky high, now I just use both together. lol
If you can get your hands on Catrice, they make great mascaras as well. My all time fav is Catrice Glam & Doll False Lash Effect mascara in waterproof.
I’ve always loved the curved brushes. Have been using L’Oréal voluminous thinking it was the best, but am definitely going to try your #1 recommended. Fantastic informative video 👍👍👍
I’ve used Lash Sensational and loved it. I’m going back to it. I’m bad to buy the newest mascara to try, and sometimes it’s better to stick with what you know. I would like to see what you think about Lash Serums, if you’ve not already. Also, not to change the subject, self-tanner would be great to see you do a tutorial on. I just got the Bondi Sands self-tanner, but haven’t used it yet. I’d like to know what think about it. I just subscribed, so I’ll look at your other tutorials. Thanks for the great info.
I love Maybelline lash sensational and the L’Oreal Lash paradise! I always have one of them open. I’m so happy that we get the same Lash paradise in Europe now, when it first launched here it wasn’t as good as the US version. I actually don’t like the Essence mascara’s, they don’t seem to work for me. Oh and Kiko has some good mascara’s too!
I wish you tried the Telescopic mascara from Loreal (my favorite) but I think that with your eyelashes you look great with every one you tried in the video
@@bnb0510 same, it looked like I had 7 long chunky eyelashes and that was it! messy too. sky high was also so disappointing for me - too flexible that it barely does anything. lash sensational is best - curl, length, separated/fanned volume :)
For those asking about flaking & smudging none of these do that for me! Would’ve let you guys know otherwise 😊
Essence Lash Princess literally melts away from one moist finger touch so it's definitely impossible that it doesn't smudge on You, unless you wore it for like a couple of hours or so. It smudges above the eye due to sebum and lower lashes are gonzo if you sweat a bit or your eyes water.
But it's great for easy removal, obviously.
@@glacialimpala I use The waterproof and once it’s dried it does none of that 😮 but during application it can get super messy if not careful
@@glacialimpala I got that mascara based on a review on it and it is so annoying. It melts off all over my eyelids and lower eye. Flakes and clumps. I can't understand why it would even be in a review. I've just bought the sky high one so I hope that's better x
Thank you for the update!! I was wondering this too
@@glacialimpala , I definitely agree with you . I loved how Essence Lash Princess applied at the beginning how it lengthen and kept my lashes curled but I work a 12 hour shift as a RN and it melted away super quick.

If you are sick of the negativity, don't read the other comments. She already had tons of mascara on, before she applied more.
I absolutely agree!! 100%

I've discovered that the Essence Lash Princess mascaras work wonderfully if you apply them and then go back with a brush that can separate. That extra steps makes it 60% even better than it is.
I love that mascara too and use tweezers to get clumps out. Never thought to use an extra wand. Thanks for the rec!

I LOVE my lash princess!
She applies the mascara way differently than I do, thus getting differently results. Technique is everything. I wiggle the wand to get any clumps out and squint my eyes so the wand helps my lashes curl with the maybelline Sky high mascara. If you just blink it on the mascara, clumps can form very easily and it looked like she was putting on the mascara in the same area multiple times which I do but not as much as she does. I get my lashes to be more separated and less clumpy that hers do.
Same
Exactly
I love the Sky High mascara. Adds great length to my lashes and doesn’t clump or smudge for me! It’s my new favorite. I also love the L’Oréal Lash Paradise mascara. These are def the two mascara that I will be sticking with for awhile.
do ur lashes fall off when removing sky high? i fee like its such a hassle and so hard to take sky high off 😢
@@Bella-lz9cp no mine have not! I double cleanse and do oil based cleanser and then face wash.
Could'nt agree More!!!!
I have been saying lash sensational is the best FOR YEARS!!! I’m so excited you ranked it the same!! I too was an irrational drugstore mascara buyer and picked up lash sensational and then never went back!!! It’s my go to!
I have it and i hate it sm
@@kajlir5802 wait why
@@nalinkaa its clumps my lashes together and it burns my eyes (i have no allergies), and i feel it adds more thickness than length.
@@nalinkaa clinique is my favorite (havent tried that many though)
It's the best!
My holy trinity of mascaras is
L’Oréal telescopic black tube Benefit Roller lash & maybelline lash sensational. I love length and separation.
I have heard the black tube is way better than the gold!!
I haven't tried the black telescopic, but I like the gold one. Going to have to try the black one.
Benefit Rollerlash is so good, and it seems like it lasts forever!
which one do you use first??
What order do you use them in? I need to buy these lol
Abbey, I can't thank you enough for this video. I've spent hundreds of dollars on high-end mascara (Chanel, YSL, etc.) and tried Maybelline Lash Sensational Full Fan Effect Mascara after seeing this video. OMG, it is just as good as any of the high end mascaras I've used...I'm switching to
I loved how Abbey gets excited over her fav mascara. Got me so excited that I’m going to purchase it
I use the Essence Lash Princess (green tube and blue one to have waterproof option) and before applying, I use L’Oréal lash primer (white tube) and I find better separation and better length - gives a more defined false lash look (:
L’Oréal Lash Paradise is also a favorite along with the pink tube lash primer (:
I really like the loreal telescopic mascara for length, and the waterproof formula stays on my lashes all day despite my oily lids.
Finally, someone who loves the Lash Sensational! I will say I can get a great lash must faster with Lash Paradise, but I don't mind the work needed for the Lash Sensational. Try the Lash Sensational in the black tube - it has a brush like the Sky High but stiffer, and it's insane! I miss the curved brush for curl but there is something just a little extra special in the black tube with the purple writing.
Its called Lash Stiletto!!! Totally agree too!!! Its bomb!
I love the LS!
I've been using lash sensational for years now and it's my holy grail ❤❤
Do you use the waterproof version of Lash Paradise? Cause I’m using Lash Paradise but it’s accidentally bought the waterproof one and it’s very wet and clumpy and makes my eyelashes fall out.
My go to is L’Oréal Double Extend lash tubes. Doesn’t come off or flake even after a super sweaty Zumba class. I enjoyed Maybelline Sky High the first 3-4 times I used it and then it just went clumpy for me. Thanks for the informative video! ❤️
I love the double extend! It just doesn’t give me the volume I want but definitely the separation.
SAME
The tube is so ugly but the product is soooo good. I love that stuff. Isn’t it a fiber mascara?
Maybelline Sky High performed and lasted the same for me, good at first, then a few uses later, it was clumpy. I'm older, but honestly, I think mascaras from years back were much better than today's, except for Maybelline, it was the one that would smudge off within a few hrs. Back in the day, Covergirl mascaras were much better than all of these different ones today, and unfortunately today's Covergirl is nothing like what it use to be, and very disappointing. I wish they had just stuck with what they once had.
I actually use the Lash Paradise AND Lash Sensational together and let me tell you.....perfection! My fave has ALWAYS been the Lash Paradise. I've tried soooooo many different ones and I just keep going back to that.
Lash Paradise IS the best!! I also use the Loreal Primer as well. I have tried dozens of mascaras over the last 20 years, and Lash Paradise is the only one I use. No smudge, no clumping, just long. gorgeous lashes.
Do you use waterproof one or the other
@@trupti13indoaussie Hi.. During the summer I use waterproof, due to the humidity here in Vegas. Nothing worse than having your mascara run down your face. Otherwise, just the regular Las Paradise. Use some primer with it (I recommend Loreal) It lengthens your lashes even longer, with the Lash Paradise. Have a nice weekend!
You should try L’Oreal Telescopic mascara. I’ve been using it for years, & it’s been the only drugstore mascara (that I’ve tried) that holds my lashes up. I love it! I’m looking forward to trying the Maybelline mascara you ranked #1.
L’Oréal telescopic is my fav too. It’s very buildable without getting clumpy and doesn’t dry out or flake.
I have and love both. The waterproof Lash Princess stays on so well the only thing I find that gets it off is the Garnier micellar water with the blue cap.
Too bad that they test on animals
Telescopic is my favorite too. I have the shortest lashes ever, so the super skinny wand is a dream for me. Those huge curved wands are a disaster, mascara all over my lid no matter how careful I am.
I agree, and was thrilled to see your top pick was lash sensational. Its been my favorite for years!
Step one: have eyelashes
Use false lashes and a micellar water to remove it
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Correct. This girl has eyelashes....
Obviously mascara is such a personal item. I still and will ALWAYS rate the Essence in the green tube as the best mascara on the market, high end or drugstore
YES!
I love the way it looks but it flakes so bad on me
Yeppp
I like it but I find it very messing and clumpy and wet. I changed back to the L'Oréal telescopic. I prefer a dryer seperating mascara but it's definitely a personal thing
For me it is the best, never smudges but it is hard to remove
For the longest time I’ve been using the lash paradise just towards the base and middle of my lash for volume, and the lash sensational at the ends to lengthen and separate. It’s my absolute favorite combo!!
No lie, I do the exact same thing except that I focus the Lash Sensational mainly on the outer corners. :)
Lash paradise is my fave!! I use that and the green essence as a topper. Love the combo and always go back to lash paradise.
My fav is Essence.The green one I just love it! Using for more than 3 years
I've been wearing lash sensation for years and I love it. So no need to change. But I am interested to try Sky High, so I think I'll still give that a go and then revert to my trusted classic.
Same
Which one is your fave now? Thanks!
@@bri_marie_ the original one, but... The sky high is good. My mum's now trying it because the skinny brush is good at picking up smaller lashes in the corners.
If you like Lash Sensational, try the one in the black tube with purple writing. It has a different wand but I swear it is somehow better than the original - and the original was a fav of mine for several years! It doesn't curl quite as well, but it outperforms the original in every other way for me. When I need quick, the Essence or the Lash Paradise is faster, but the results are better with Lash Sensational if I take a little extra time with it.
Abbey you should try covergirl exhibitionist mascara - you'll love it! (especially since your top 3 are my top 3 as well, in addition to the Covergirl one!)
Exhibitionist is better than Lash paradise!! I love it!
It's very interesting how these mascaras work differently for different people. It probably depends on the length and volume of the natural lashes, on how watery your eyes are or how oily the eyelids can get. I've tried all of these mascaras but my favorite one is the Maybelline The Falsies Lash Lift Mascara. It gives me the most length and separation and the most important - it stays put all day. All the other ones are smuggling on me. The Essence ones smug like no other.
It is crazy how opposite my favorites are from yours! I hated Lash Paradise and Sky High and my absolute favorite is Cover Girl Lash Blast. I have long lashes, and I love the volume that one gives me. And it washes off the easiest.
Even if I don't agree, I loved the video and I loved seeing the comparisons! It's really helpful!
YES! I love Covergirl Lash Blast also. I have long but straight lashes and I notice the curl holding throughout my 12 hr shift and the volume is amazing too! Doesn't dry bc I don't have to put the brush in and out the tube....one coat it good enough! 💜
Hmm.. I love Cover Girl lashblast too,and was just getting ready to give lash paradise a try. But now I wonder if I should. Do you mind telling me why you " hate it" I don't want to waste my money
@@monicshastings8945 Lash Paradise's formula starts out a lot drier than Lash Blast, so the tube didn't "last" as long.
I like to comb through my lashes after putting on the mascara, and since Lash Paradise was so dry, it would flake almost immediately as I was combing through. Even if I didn't comb, there would be flakes on my cheeks throughout the day.
Finally, Lash Blast seems to be the mascara that washes off the easiest at the end of the day. It lasts the longest on me, but isn't isn't difficult to remove. Lash Paradise (and Sky High) need a dedicated eye makeup remover or something.
@@happyhappy101 First off, thank you for answering and giving a well thought out review. It was really helpful. We seem to have simpatico views on mascara. I also like all the things you mentioned about lash blast mascara, including how easy it is to remove. I also like how it gives such volume with just one coat, yet looks smooth and natural and not spikey -so no spider leg lashes. money. All the things you mentioned about lash paradise I wouldn't like either. I also like to comb out my lashes to separate and remove clumps, so I wouldn't be looking forward to having a lot of it comb out and wind up with mascara flakes under my eyes. So now I know not to waste my money on lashparadise. * If you should ever happen to be a little tight on money, I've found that Wet n Wild Mega Volume mascara is very similar to lashblast but only a fraction of the cost. Approximately only $ 3 at Winco grocery store Or if on sale at drug store, which they also sometimes be BOGO
@@monicshastings8945 Ooh, that's good to know! I'll try that one out! Wet and Wild has good enough prices to experiment with different items, haha
All I want is a mascara that doesn't flake into my glasses and smudge underneath my eyes 😭
yes, I think that us people with glasses will notice the flakyness much sooner. because most flakes would be so small they wouldn't stick to your undereye area. btu they do stick to the insides of glasses and grrrr it makes me go crazy
Fiberwig.. absolutely a life saver
My flakes go in my eyeball and irritate my contacts.
@@labornurse oh god we just can't win lmao
Have you tried the sky high? I accidentally slept in it one night and it did not budge, even with me sleeping on my face 🤣
Just a recommendation... the Gigi Blacklash Mascara from Mac. It’s sooo good! I love simple, natural, and high quality beauty products and this mascara hits all of those points!
I use this exclusively for my lower lashes. The only mascara that doesnt smudge on my oily lids.
I love the maybelline lash sensational! I was an essence stan for years until I wanted something with a better waterproof formula. My new holy grail.
Do you use waterproof one or the other?
@@trupti13indoaussie I use both, waterproof is great and holds the curl better. I've been using the normal one lately because it's easier to remove
I love lash sensational! It was my absolute favorite for years but then I found the Loriel telescopic and have been using that for about the last 2 years. This has made me want to go back and try the lash sensational again but I would definitely recommend trying the telescopic if you haven’t already!
I love the telescopic too. I have the shortest, stubbiest lashes ever so that super skinny wand is the only one that doesn't get mascara all over my lid. Those huge curved wands are a disaster for me, I need that micro precision haha
@@elizabethcoheeI agree ! I have short lashes and the l’oréal telescopic works wonder!. I also like the maybelline lash sensational but i’ve not used it since using the telescopic
My fav is the sky high! Makes my lashes have a good mascara day every time and actually adds length
Agree
I can't believe my holy grail L'Oreal voluminous is in last place! I've been using it for years so I do need to experiment and will try your first place choice. Love your thorough reviews!
I thought her Voluminous lashes were the best! (It’s also my hg mascara)
Haha I thought the same thing. I just bought a two pack from Walmart for $10 LOL. 🤷🏼♀️
The maybelline sky high mascara is the best I've tried. If you want longer lashes/brows, The silly George lash serum is honestly amazing. I've been through two tubes and I can most definitely say that it works!
Honest question; does everyone use this much mascara with each coat? I can't get my lashes to look like yours using that much product....it ends up looking extremely clumpy. Yours look amazing!!
to me at least, that's how much i do too 😂
I dont, i do like 3 swipes
I've used 5 of the mascaras she used and my lashes never looked like that with any of them esp Lash Princess they'd be a massive clumpy mess or I'd have mascara all over my eyelids. I would call her first application 3 coats at least and I usually do 2 coats. Not sure if she wipes off the wand first? Interested to see the mascara secrets video.
No irritate me the coats i use once twice coat.Maybelline classic volume express extra black ,not clump and looks feels natural no smudge.
heck I am a mom of three, if I wear it one coat is one or 2 swipes. and usually just the top lashes lol
Maybelline Lash Sensational is my favourite mascara. I hate it when mascara clumps your lashes together so they look like you have less lashes!
For me, it's most about ease of removal at night, that's why I only use TUBING mascara now. My faves are Loreal Beauty Tubes and Thrive. Loreal Beauty Tubes NEVER smears during the day, even rain getting on your face and you literally hold a cotton pad with water to your eye for 20 seconds and the tubes slide off. The BEST
Hi, what is tubing mascara?
@@janicerainey8687 hey I found this on google:
"Regular mascaras use oils, waxes and dyes, whereas tubing mascaras have polymers that wrap around each individual lash. This creates 'tubes' that encase each lash giving you a very even application. It may sound strange, but tubing mascaras are actually smudge-proof and are super easy to remove!"
hope it helps
My husband yells at me for leaving tubular residue in the sink
It's so interesting seeing how every one of us has different way of applying mascara. Great video by the way.
LOVE the showdowns. Foundations, primers, concealers... I’m here for it! And maybe skincare too! 🤔 the possibilities
Maybelline Lash Sensational was the first mascara I ever tried and its always been my favorite. Ive tried so many but none compare
Actually I liked the orange one on you the most😍 unfortunately I tried the No.1 mascara and I liked how it performed, but my goodness it was soooo hard to take it off 😩 that’s why my favorite one is the L’Oréal lash paradise 🙌👌 great video, thank you so much 💕💕
The Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara is hands down the best mascara I've ever used.
Really.. It gets so clumpy for me 😩 idk whyy
It looks good at first but my eyelashes also droop down after a while
@@Pillowlips77 I wipe the brush off a bit with a tissue .
I agree! SO GOOD it makes my lashes so long
Thanks Abbey, this is so helpful. Your natural lashes are gorgeous!!
Rimmel discontinued my 1-coat magical HG years ago (natural, classic fat & fluffy wand). I use Essence Princess (green) and I'd be happy to repurchase. I'm willing to spend more if the product is truly worth it for me.
For the budget conscious, there are products for reviving mascara, definitely worth trying as they unlock a lot of product.
For those based in UK, I decant Boots Traditional Glycerin and Rosewater into spray bottle. A quick spray into mascara tube, then shake, works wonders.
Crazy how different everyone’s lashes are! Ive tried most of this list and essence lash princess (green) is my number 1 of all time!! It’s not even a “it’s good for the price” situation, it’s genuinely my favorite out of every mascara I’ve ever tried, ever.
the only problem is it's so hard to take off.
@@selinozturk7426 really? Mine comes right off when I use my makeup eraser
@@earthangelbaby_ what do you use? maybe my micellar water is not good enough.
@@selinozturk7426 literally just water and the makeup eraser.
The Maybelline Lash Sensational is the best for me! I’ve tried so many other ones and always come back to it. I typically use that first then layer it with another brand for volume. When I don’t use it, there’s a noticeable difference.
What brand do you use with it?
@@MandaL0814 i use all different kind to be honest. Mostly IT super hero (another fav) or Better than sex. Those are just the ones that I’ve found worked for me with the Maybelline. I’m sure any volumizing will work though. I honestly think the best results come from the Maybelline.
L’Oreal Telescopic has been my hero for so many years now!
I thought about saying this as well. And then saw your comment and instantly thought “🤫🤫🤫 don’t tell them!” 😬😬
This is my favorite mascara too! I don't love other mascaras as much as i do this one. Another question - did you notice that your lashes weakened at the beginning?
I use to use telescope till I found tarte 🥰
Same here
My new favorite is "They're Brilliant" by LACURA that I bought at Aldis. It has a very unique plastic wand and the waterproof formula is amazing, it does not smudge. I never expected to find an amazing mascara at a grocery store but for under $4 dollars I was willing to give it a try. It also appears I have less lash fall out since I started using this mascara which would also contribute to my lashes looking longer and thicker.
I recently bought the Maybelline waterproof lash sensational and I was honestly super amazed. I don’t wear mascara only on special occasion. I tried this after not wearing mascara for like the longest time & I really liked it !
Your favourite has been mine for years!! -I love this one because its one of very few mascaras that dont leave black smudges under the eye after one hour or more of use!!
Took your advice and tried the Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara after using the Essence Lash Princess for over a year. Previously only used pricey high-end mascaras but these two are as good as any IMO. I agree that the Lash Sensational is a terrific mascara. Volume is where it falls a bit short. For me the Maybelline lash sensational #1 and the Essence lash princess #2
As in you apply Maybelline 1st and then Essence as 2nd coat?
@@devonhanley8174 interesting idea so I tried it and it came out better than if I had just used either one alone. Thanks!! 👍🙂
Omg same with the cover girl I swore by it years ago but recently I have been looking for a new and improved mascara I think I’ll give the maybelline lash sensational one a try! Thank you!
I just CAN’T with plastic bristles. Man your lashes are amazing. Mine are long but dang yours make me want to do grande lash or something to get more of them! L’Oreal lash paradise or the purple essence mascara are my go-to’s at the drugstore.
I know you're probably joking, but fyi, look into the risks with lash serums before doing it, I tried grande lash and eventually took it back bc of the possible side effects.
The sky high is my new fav! Definitely a learning curve with the flexible wand, but it makes my lashes look amazing and it does not budge!! I don't like the lash sensational bc I have hooded eyes with decently long lashes and I always get mascara on my lids if I work up the length with any mascara, and with that one I can't let it dry and flake it off with a q-tip or brush without ruining my eyeshadow.
I’m actually disappointed of the purple Essence Lash Princess mascara. I agree with you, it’s so so wet and while applying it, it stains my whole eyelid and after a few hours of wearing it, it smudges on my undereye area, even when I don‘t apply lower lash mascara 😕
Same i also dont like it that much and i also dont understand the hype😕
@@TH-camrtehefr
Yea Maybelline mascaras! Lash Discovery is always my first coat, and then Lash Sensation or Sky High... have tried some of those, but Maybelline has my favorites.
Your lashes can pull of ANY mascara. Great showdown!
I’ve used L’Oréal Voluminous for years and really like it but I’m a senior and like to keep a more natural look. I came online looking since I needed a new tube and I saw your video. Very helpful, I really liked the comparisons and I’m going to order your number 1 pick. Thanks for the tip, Abbey.
ok but.... your eyelashes look incredible with all of them!!!! hahaha
😂 thank you!
🤣🤣 I thought the same
OMG I was thinking the same thing. I wanted before pictures to see what her lashes were like before application because her lashes look perfect for all of them!
Yes I’ve also just discovered the plastic mascara wand works best for my lashes… I did a side by side comparison today of the maybeline sensational lash and the grandefanatic mascara ….the grande won…try it💋
I’m loving the sky high mascara with IT cosmetics over it. I hate the IT cosmetics by itself because it’s all volume and no length but over a lengthening mascara it’s awesome! I haven’t tried lash paradise yet but I will now. Thanks! Loved your video!
Yes to your 2 step mascara video! Looking forward to it!!!
Lash Paradise by L'oreal is where it's at for me, as far as drugstore mascaras. I want good coverage in one coat, no clumps and I don't care that much about volume. I want lift and length, and I feel like it improves the quality of my lashes as well.
I am looking for separation, not volume, so Maybelline. It also gives a great lift. Paradise and Sky high do better lenght.
I always layer using a lengthening mascara first, then a volume one. My go to for a long time was the Covergirl green then orange (Clump Crusher then Volume). It's been a few years, I wonder if I'd like it now 🤔 I've been trying only using one mascara at a time, but can't find one I like.
That’s my method too 😊 yes I remember clump crusher too!
For me personally i prefered the mascaras in the opposite order. I like a dryer formula because i like a more natural lash but i did really like the Lash Sensational.
Same! Every time she said the formula is dry, I'm like, but I love drier formula! 😅
Same! They looked so much better!
Same here!
I really think a lot of these mascaras could have benefited from a metal lash comb and less coats ...just my opinion. I think I tend to prefer a more wispy/defined lash.
Thanks for the detailed review - this will be most helpful. I would like to ask - have you ever played with a different color palette regarding your blush? Something in the cool pink berry tones instead of golden range. I would love to see how that looks on you with your hair, eye and skin color....just a thought. Thank you pretty woman.
I LOVE lash sensational too!! My top top is that one and Honest Beauty mascara!! That's my absolute favorite 😍
Hi Abbey I just bought the Maybelline sky high today and will try it tomorrow. My favourite mascara of all time is the Benefit they're real - never smudges, gives good length and separation, doesn't flake or clump etc. i also like a slim wand as i have smaller eyes with hooding, big fat/hourglass wands get mascara everywhere on me. I don't mind a flexible wand btw - it allows me to get all the lashes. I don't like clumps or too much "volumising". The essence lash princess smudges on me like crazy - even the waterproof one smudges everywhere, but I like the brush. The new essence one doesn't smudge, but it's more volumising and has a fat brush - works as a topper to something else for longevity. I'm hoping I'll really like the sky high, but we'll see. Best wishes.
ps they all looked good on you on the first coat - some of them not so much on the second coat.x
Benefit fan here 🙋🏻♀️ I love them all
Ok NEEDED this video so much. Now i just need your lash growth secrets!
maybelline lash sensational is my all time go to! happy to see its first
Thank you for the video. Have you considered changing your mascara application technique? I feel like some of these mascaras (like the essence one) preform much better with the wiggle technique
Hi Abbey, just wanted to say that I loved the methodology you used for clasifying the mascaras. I love ratign things and you doing it gives more confidense when choosing my next mascara. Love your videos!
This was really helpful for me! Thank you! Btw all mascaras looked amazing on you, your lashes are so perfect!💗
My favourite mascara is Maybelline the Rocket Volum' Express. I haven't yet found another brush that separates my lashes so well and with which I can actually get good-looking results :) I usually just end up using the Rocket wand with other mascaras I have...
So interesting that you mentioned some of the others being dry - I found the Lash Paradise to be so dry I could barely get 4-6 weeks out of a full size tube. The Lash Sensational was too wet for me at the start but after a couple of weeks it was really nice.
Agree- my Lash Paradise was done in a MONTH. 😳
@@AndyP72 I don’t find that hygienic. 😬
i also was wondering about why my lash paradise ran out so fast, but then i saw it has much less in it than all the other mascaras. so it makes sense it runs out faster. bums me out that they still charge the same price for it though :/
just a tip for everyone: if your mascara is drying out, heat up a cup of water for about 30-45 seconds and drop the tube in there. By the time you get to that step, the mascara won’t be as dry :)
So glad im not the only one with this problem. I loved the mascara but it ran out so damn fast, wasnt worth buying again for that reason
Thank you for making this video. I appreciate your rating system and all the details you provide for both the video and information section. I also love the time stamps.
This was super helpful. Any chance you would ever do a waterproof version?
No one ever does a waterproof version. 🥺
@@ambergerhelper7852 Why?
@@traceytrotter9934 the formulas are never as good as the non waterproof. But I don't know why people don't text the waterproof versions too.
I just bought the winner (Lash Sensational) for the second time in the waterproof version, and it's very good! I have also used Lancome mascaras in waterproof versions (Hypnose, Monsieur Big) and I'd say that I'd be satisfied buying the waterproof Lash Sensational in the future. I get really false lash looking lashes with Monsieur Big, but you need to wipe extra product from the wand and it's annoying. The brush is huge and makes the mascara application a bit dangerous (smudging).
The Lancome Hypnose is much more convenient for everyday use and there's no excess product in the wand. But I'd say that the finish result is so similar with the Lash Sensational, that it literally makes no sense to pay extra to buy the Lancome if Maybelline is as good. Where I live, the price of the Lancome on sale is double the price of the Maybelline on sale. If I'd buy a new tube every 3 months, I would definitely choose Maybelline, but in reality I don't open a new one so often, so I might pick the high end once a while.
I have to buy waterproof mascaras because non-waterproof formulas melt in my eyes even if I just stay at home doing nothing. I've also used the Loreal Million lashes in the purple tube and it is a good one for everyday use but it's not very volumizing. I believe that's a tubing formula that melts with warm water. To say something from my mascara preference, I would have stopped the mascara layers way before she did. I don't want to see lashes clumping together, and I prefer separation and length over volume.
@@noora7773 hey girl... Thanks for the detailed comment! Very helpful! ❤️
I've used Maybelline Define-a-lash for YEARS. It holds curl really well on my straight lashes. I love plastic wands, so maybe I will try out the Lash Sensational sometime soon!
I wish more drugstore brands would go cruelty free. For that reason I stick with my Essence Lash Princess mascaras. Maybelline Lash Sensational was my favorite for a long time. I also like more wet mascara formulas and the curved wand. I think I’ll try the purple lash princess next time. I’ve only ever tried the green one.
Covergirl is now cruelty free.
You're so brave.
CoverGirl is cruelty free now
Been using this mascara for YEARS! I'm not surprised it's #1 on your list. Thank you for trying other mascaras so I don't have to, it helped cure my curiosity of other types :)
Earlyyyy I love you so much Abbey!
The honest beauty mascara is also soo good!
That one also has a lash primer!
Love you ♥️ that one is really good! It surprised me
My new favorite is Covergirl Lash Blast Clean Volume in the light blue tube. It's both lengthening and volumizing and NO clumps! I use 2 coats and it's fantastic. It's not great for the bottom lashes, the wand is pretty chunky so I use something else, but I was pleasantly surprised and have purchased 3 times now.
Ever since I got poked in the eye with a mascara wand getting my makeup done for a dance competition I’ve been terrified of mascara 😂 but you’ve helped me get back in the game 😊
I’ve literally never read a comment as relatable as yours lmao😂 makeup for the stage is rly the worst 😅
I have the brown waterproof lash blast and it sucks for eyelashes.... however, it is an amazing substitute for a brow gel and is all I use on my brows. Doesn’t budge or smudge no matter what you get up to.
I have the brown lash blast(non-waterproof). It’s super good for a natural lash however, it bother my eyes if I wear it more than a couple hours. Does the waterproof at least last?
@@BellaBelle909 hi I used it on my lashes once and it literally made no difference in their appearance so I repurposed it as a brow gel/pomade. Sorry I can’t be more helpful 🤷🏼♀️
@@lisanguyen4762 No it’s all good. Thanks for answering tho
For me the winners were lash sensation and max factor. I love a separated no clump not too wet formula. My favourite right now is the L'Oréal telescopic
i have really straight eyelashes and without an eyelash curler or waterproof mascara there be no hold which is why voluminous lash paradise makes my eyelashes hold, they look thicker, and length is pretty good, an oldie great lash maybelline waterproof is great on its own or use as a topper or first coat of mascara and than add l'oreal waterproof voluminous or lash paradise on top. l'oreal voluminous doesn't add length but it makes eyelashes look fuller. The essence mascara waterproof in a blue tube is a good one too holds well but found hard to get off if you don't use an waterproof eye make up remover, the lash princess weights my eyelashes down...mascara junkie, will have to give the lash sensational mascara a try, been eyeing it
What is your favorite eyelash curler? I also have to use waterproof mascaras, since my lashes are straight.
@@r.and.s.23 revlon or twizzer man. Have been trying the Quo eyelash curler but the shape is slightly smaller than the other two, its cheap compared to the revlon or twizzerman. Plus for the Quo eyelash curler is that it's $6 in canada, and it come with more of the rubber cushions than the other 2. The revlon eyelash curler changed, it's now in gold and the ruber cushion is not the same as it used to be, the twizzerman eyelash curler is like the old silver revlon one which is my favourite just wish it came with more than one cushion or that the cushions were sold separately.

Best mascara!!!!
I feel the Sky High Mascara works best with the brush from the regular Sensational mascara!
I tried your blinking tip and omg, I am pleasantly surprised to say that this is a total game changer! My mascara usually looks like it is gone by evening, but after using your tip I got great coverage and it lasted until I took it off. Thanks so much!
I recently got the sky high, and combining it with the Lash Paradise is just... Yes. Used the Lash Paradise for years before getting the sky high, now I just use both together. lol
damn the Lash Sensational looks good
If you can get your hands on Catrice, they make great mascaras as well. My all time fav is Catrice Glam & Doll False Lash Effect mascara in waterproof.
I’ve always loved the curved brushes. Have been using L’Oréal voluminous thinking it was the best, but am definitely going to try your #1 recommended. Fantastic informative video 👍👍👍
I’ve used Lash Sensational and loved it. I’m going back to it. I’m bad to buy the newest mascara to try, and sometimes it’s better to stick with what you know. I would like to see what you think about Lash Serums, if you’ve not already. Also, not to change the subject, self-tanner would be great to see you do a tutorial on. I just got the Bondi Sands self-tanner, but haven’t used it yet. I’d like to know what think about it. I just subscribed, so I’ll look at your other tutorials. Thanks for the great info.
I love Maybelline lash sensational and the L’Oreal
Lash paradise! I always have one of them open. I’m so happy that we get the same Lash paradise in Europe now, when it first launched here it wasn’t as good as the US version. I actually don’t like the Essence mascara’s, they don’t seem to work for me. Oh and Kiko has some good mascara’s too!
I used the essence lash princess in the green bottle and did my trick with another wand, it spread them out!❤
I wish you tried the Telescopic mascara from Loreal (my favorite) but I think that with your eyelashes you look great with every one you tried in the video
That’s my favorite too! It’s my cheaper alternative to the roller lash by benefit
She mentioned it in a recent faves / fails video or something like that and said it didn’t work well for her at all!
@@Davis1211 you're right. I have found it in the September video
@@Davis1211 it definitely doesn’t work
For everyone. It’s horrid on me.
@@bnb0510 same, it looked like I had 7 long chunky eyelashes and that was it! messy too. sky high was also so disappointing for me - too flexible that it barely does anything. lash sensational is best - curl, length, separated/fanned volume :)
love this video omg ?? and i like how you rate + rank ur items !! gives sm information
I define 1 coat as 3 swipes....these are more like 10 coats! Holy smokes! 😆. If I have to swipe more than 3-5 times, it’s a fail.
I thought it was just me 😝
Lol. I know. Her lashes are amazing. I never use this many coats. 4 max, but usually 3.
I slowed down the speed and counted. 51 swipes on her right eye for her number one mascara. ON THE FIRST COAT! Sheesh
I consider 1 coat as 1 dip into the product
