Under $20?! Can we talk about how insane those _drugstore_ prices are? Covergirl mascara well over 10 bucks? L'Oreal approaching 20. Am I really the only one who thinks that's absolutely mad? A drugstore mascara should be well under ten dollars, closer to 5.

I've been wearing mascara for a long time ... I'm surprised to see that drugstore mascara's are getting over priced too, the only mascara I've seen that is still reasonable is the Essence brand 🙂 The mascara I've been wearing is the Milani Highly rated mascara 🥰 This mascara removes easily with warm water, no clumps or smudges in this gem. My eyes are very sensitive and this mascara doesn't irritate them at all. Thank you Shelly for a great video and Ziva is adorable . Take care everyone 🌹

My newest drugstore fave is elf's tubing mascara, Lash Xtndr. No smudging, it nicely lengthens my lashes and washes off easily. I recently tried the new Maybelline Firework formula as I love their Sky High. It was too wet and the tip of the wand is too wide so I always end up splattering mascara on my eyelids. 🤨 it's literally a guaranteed mess waiting to happen. The wand is also super flexible, even more so than the Sky High so it makes a mess. Not a fan. 😕 L'Oreal's Telescopic is one of my favorites but I don't use it on my lower lashes because it smudges a bit. It's a good 'everyday' mascara.

I absolutely LOVE the loreal telescopic I used it everyday my second fav is elf lash and roll. I fancy trying out the maybelline the falsies

@karenn993 12 күн бұрын

I use the Panorama as basically a topcoat over the Essence Lash Princess to avoid the smudge factor with the Essence. The Essence has always made my lashes look best, but I couldn't abide the smudging.

Hi Shelly. I can't believe how costly drugstore products have gotten. I've never tried a Wet N Wild mascara. I know that you like the Big Poppa. I'm wirh you. I don't like the plastic applicators. They hurt! The Fireworks looks really nice. The What's Up Beauty mascara is gorgeous. Right now, my two favorite mascaras are the Rare Beauty and the Fenty. Covergirl to me, still has the best drugstore mascara. Thanks, Shelly!❤❤

Your left side looked much better with the cover girl. A lot more volume 2. Your rt eye sooo much fuller with wet n Wild 3.left eye so much better. 4. Left eye 💯 % for L’Oréal. Great drugstore mascara comparison. Great video thank you Shelly oops 6. Your left eye for sure. Gorgeous

I always look forward to your reviews. You do such a detailed evaluation and leave no stone unturned. Mascara is SO important and this video was great. AGAIN, Ziva steals the show!!! 😇She really does need and deserves her own channel. I have never seen such a loving pet in my life, she does everything but talks. (Unless you're holding something back!)😂Thanks for another important, informative and enjoyable review. Take care, my friend. Wishing you a very Happy 4th! Lee

@tracisetter2164 13 күн бұрын

I have Firework and Panorama and hands down prefer the Panorama! I let my friend borrow them both and she also loves the Panorama! I prefer a pokey plastic brush because my lashes need help staying separated! Falsies Surreal was a total disappointment for me. Essence Lash Princess would be my usual daily go to, but L'Oreal always reigns supreme over CoverGirl or Maybelline for me😂

@cf8595 12 күн бұрын

thanks for sharing. I LOVE tarte sugar rush lash treat, and can't really find it anywhere anymore except in bundles. That weird type of wand with one side long bristle/other side short, really made my lashes long, defined, and held some fan/curl. It just suuuuuuucked to remove. micellar water for days, and forget about any cleanser or soap.

Not even in a minute but Ulta has 2 mascaras I like - one is a “lifter” and the other is their tubing mascara… I think they’re less than $15.00 each. I’ll watch & see if they’re included. Stay good, be safe.

@lorainemcgillivray77 4 күн бұрын

Hi Shelley I really struggle with mascara due to allergies and rosacea causing dry eye (aka constantly teary eyes 😢). I’ve given up on “normal” mascara and tubing mascara (all those warm wet tears make it fall off). I need something budgeproof that doesn’t make my lashes brittle and for that I ended up looking to K beauty mascara. I’m currently using the Clio kill cover mascara and it’s been great. I use the Bioderma sensibio biphase eye makeup remover (IMO better than the Lancome and far less expensive) to remove it easily. My oil cleanser will remove it but the eye makeup remover does it quickly and easily by comparison. I tried several tubing mascaras from both Far East and Western brands and they all flaked off on me (the newer Elf one was pretty bad for this). The Clio is well under 20$ on Amazon as well as many other retailers. It has a slim wand which I prefer with my hooded eyes and is very black. Due to the shape of the wand you can get to the root of the lashes and the lower lashes easily (might replace your lower lash current expensive EL favourite). Best wishes x

I was hoping you’d do this video! I’m lucky because I have the same lashes as you - super straight and my bottom lashes are long too AND I like the same eyelash look as you! I’m definitely trying that polite society! I think you’d enjoy maybelline lash sensational. I know it’s been out for a while but I just tried it and it’s surprisingly really good!

I wanna know how they wear hours in- smudge proof ? Smear proof ? Initial test doesn’t do much for me . Could be great right outta the gate - doesn’t mean anything.

I wonder if you have experience with how these mascaras wear. Flaking and smudging is a really significant factor for me even when the product looks great on application.

@raafiaahmad4454 13 күн бұрын

Oh thank you Shelly for this video as mascara is my favourite makeup category after foundation. My current favourite drugstore mascara is the Max Faxtor 2000 calories (I know max factor is not available in the USA) they have a wide range of mascaras and I believe they are the counterpart of the Covergirl version in the UK and Europe. You must check them out on your next trip to Ireland. Needless to say, you must also check the wide range of mascaras from Essence as it is dirt cheap and a well contender to all the expensive ones and I’m sure you will find your favourite under 4€ . Take care you too.❤❤❤❤❤

The Cover Girl ones and Panorama look great on you. You look great in them I should say! Maybelline Snapscara is a legit tubing mascara with a curved traditional bristle brush. It's somewhere between Merit and Caliray.
