Ohhh have I found a new mascara that I am completely in love with!! It's Chanel's Exceptionnel De Chanel Intense Volume and Curl mascara. I'll warn you upfront... it's pricey ($28 EEKK!!). But holy cow is this stuff amazing!! It's got this odd brush - it's four sided and one side is a brush, then a comb, then a brush, then a comb. The results this mascara gives me are the most amazing lashes! SUPER long, thick, and I don't think I could get it to clump if I tried to. I've used other mascara's that say they curl your lashes, but I never noticed any type of real curl. With this Chanel mascara, my lashes are so curled up and that makes them look so much longer. It doesn't budge all day and still looks perfect after 8-10 hours.

One coat is phenomenal - two coats, it's like I've put on false lashes!!! I was lucky enough to get a sample tube of this, or else I would have never even tried it. $28.00 is not what I would usually consider paying for mascara. But I can't not have this product! Seriously, I used another mascara that I love today instead of the Chanel and my lashes looked so puny. So I guess I'm going to have to shell out $28 for mascara from now on... Shhhh! Don't tell my hubby.

Yeah, I got a sample of that stuff too. I wasn't impressed at all. The brush was cool and all, but it flaked like no one's business and irritated my eyes horribly. No thank you, I'll stick with my $7 L'oreal Voluminous for now.

Sorry to hear you don't love it as much as I do. I haven't had any problem with flaking, etc.. Wish I could find a $7 mascara that I love so much... sure would save me some bucks! Guess that's why there are SOOOO many mascara's out there - that way everyone can find the one that's just right for them.

Have a great day!
