My new favorite is Mega Length Mascara by Wet and Wild - lengthens and adds volume with no clumps. No flaking or smudging. For $4, it is one of the best that I’ve ever used drugstore or high end.
Thank you for sharing
I'll have to give it a try. Thank you!
Don’t underestimate a lash primer they work so well 😀
fr!!! Ever since I discovered the lancôme lash primer I haven’t gone back. My lashes are short but this gives my lashes am length and volume. I use a primer with the l’oréal telescopic or sometimes the maybelline lash sensational
L’Oréal Unlimited Length and Lift Mascara! It comes in an hourglass shape and I learned about it from Angie hot n’ flashy. I swear that one is an exact dupe for the viral tower 28 one
That was my go to mascara! Loved it so much, but they discontinued it! Looking for a new one now.
I've been waiting for this! I love your mascara reviews. 💖💖
Thank you for featuring red tops in your Amazon store. I needed one for a work function and that made it very easy to find what I needed!
Hi Melissa I have rosacea affecting my eyes and it can cause a LOT of watering in the right eye particularly. Wearing waterproof mascara every day dries my lashes out a lot, so i've tried a ton of mascaras in the last couple of years (including most of the hyped ones available here in Scotland and tubing mascaras). I got fed up and decided to go back to an old favourite and I'm so glad I did - Benefit they're real. It's not waterproof, but it's very water resistant and removes easier than waterproof, isn't too drying and stays on all day with no flaking, smudging or panda eyes in sight. I wore it for years and then got sucked in by all the new mascaras (both drugstore and higher end), but I'm back to they're real and really happy with it. I also have smaller eyes and the thinner wand is so much easier to manouvre that fat or hourglass wands - it's just been a lot easier all round.
From the ones shown here I've tried them all and none of them work for me all that great, although the skiy high is the best of the bunch for me of the ones shown (btw the waterproof essence one smudges more than most non waterproof mascaras on me - it was a disaster lol). It has to be said though that I have very particular issues with my eyes and how mascara reacts to all the watering - tubing mascara comes off with the warm tears from my eyes lol. I'm probably harder on a mascara than most people due to how irritated my eyes become too. Best wishes.
This sounds like me 😂
I am here specifically because I have used the essence waterproof for a few years and recently realized it smudges on my left eye no matter what I do. Decided I should do some research and try something new! I might go back to benefit after reading what you wrote.
@@artofchloelou I hope it works for you x
Thanks for this video. I love the repher eyelash curler. It's the best!!!
Your lashes look crazy good, long and full! Thanks for all you! ❤
The only product I knew I wouldn’t like from ELF was their mascaras. That was true until this one came out and I was so impressed. Now I make sure I try all of the mascaras.
Great video. Some of these I forgot about too. Thanks for bringing it out. Your hair is great!!
Thank you so much!!
Ok! Now I'll have to try the Lash Paradise mascara! I've been using and loving the Sky High mascara for a few years now but I'm open to trying something that I may like better.
So fun! I like the essence one & sky hi & lash paradise.
Thank you for keeping us company !
You are so welcome!
Hey Melissa! I absolutely LOVE your new hair color. Looks so good! Have a great weekend 😊
Thank you so much!! 💓
Thank you for continuing to bring us awesome info! I have tried all of them but Elf and your #1! I like them all, but I'm really anxious to try your Number 1 pick!!! Love ya!!
You are so welcome!
Whenever I'm searching for something specific related to beauty, you always deliver. Thank you for another informative video!
Wow, thank you!
Thank you so much for this review- I use the sky high mascara, but looking for an alternative! Love your channel, Melissa!
You are so welcome!
I remember your 30 mascaras in 30 days video from a few years ago! Love this update. I’m loving the Sky High black eye lash primer and the matching mascara. I love the waterproof mascara on the tips tip 😂You are so good at this! I always look forward to your videos. They are always informative, interesting and entertaining- you’re the real deal 😇👑
Melissa is wonderful. I’ve been watching her for a while. Love her videos 💖
I've done one of those for the past 3 years & the new one is cooking! Lol
Thanks a bunch Debra!
Hi Melissa !! Love a mascara video always searching for the one that ticks all the boxes . The Tarte tubing is the one I have been reaching for and the Bobbie Brown smoky eye mascara is amazing . L’Oréal is another go to for me 😊 thanks for sharing have to try the sky high one now 😀🤗💕
Thanks for sharing your favorites Bridget! 😍
I just finished a tube of lash paradise and was coming here for potential new mascaras to try, but I’m gonna take this video as a sign to stick with it bc I also love it so much 😂 thank you!
It's a great one for sure!
Melissa I love the new hair color!!!! It's beautiful!!
Thank you Aubrey!! 😊
I have been hoping you do another mascara review. Thank you
More to come!
Evening Malissa
Thanks for sharing ❤
You are so welcome
Love the new hair color, looks so natural and fresh ! I usually prefer natural fibers brushes but Kiko Milano Maxi Mod mascara has totally won me over, it has a very small tiny brush, easy to use and layer and the result is mind blowing. I do enjoy Essence Lash Princess as well and also Colourpop Level Up and Act Natural.
Thanks for sharing!! I need to pick up the Kiko & try it!
I love you hair darker this color. Really pretty. It changes your whole face and eyes !! So pretty. I didn’t tell you before 😊😊😊😊I have a new fav mascara. Not drugstore. When I turned 61, I’m 62 my eyes water, I have bad dry eyes -the ONLY mascara that doesn’t cause them to water is the Lash Idole from Lancôme. I love it. I don’t like wetter formulas This is perfect tho
Thank you, Melissa!
You are so welcome!
Since you moved to a new house would you do a room tour? Also--I am missing your tutorials. Seeing the products being used is so helpful to me when I go shopping. Thanks for considering my wish list. ☺
Hi Melissa. Thanks for doing this video because I need a new mascara. Love and Kindness, Teresa
You are so welcome!
Can you do a best hypoallergenic mascara? I am allergic to so many of the regular ones out there, that it would be very nice! Thanks for sharing your videos, i always enjoy them!😊
Just tried the Calliray Come Hell or High Water and so far I am loving it 🙂
I really like Covergirl Exhibitionist Stretch and Strength waterproof mascara. But it’s time to get a new mascara and I’m excited to try one of these. Thank you for sharing this with us! ❤
My pleasure Tiffany!
Perfect Melissa -- give it to us.... love it
Glad you liked it!
I switched from Essence waterproof to the maybelline sky high. Love it and really love the primer. Being black is what makes it so great. That’s all I use for my bottom lashes. Now I’ll try L’Oréal paradise next. Looking great MelissaM ❤
I hope you love it!
Love your blonde hair!
Hi Melissa, I have all of those mascaras except #3 and Sky High by Maybelline is my favorite and LO'real Lash Paradise is right up there too. Thank you Melissa for a wonderful mascara video and I enjoyed it very much as usual with your videos. In this video you picked all of the best ones that I know of. Be well and we love you too Melissa.🥰❤💗💕💜💜💜🌺🥀🌸💐
Great minds think alike 😉
Love the Lash Paradise!!! So thrilled to see it at #1!! ❤❤❤❤❤
It truly is awesome!
I’ve been using lash paradise exclusively for like 7 years now and decided to come to CZcams to see if there were better ones these days I’m missing out on. Guess not 😂
Hi Melissa! Great products. I l recently got (and like) Calliray’s come hell or high water tubing mascara 😊
I neeed to try that L’Oréal lash paradise… my favorite is Hourglass Tubing. I got it in a package deal, so I didn’t even have to pay for it. But I LOVE it!!! I have about 8 tubes of unopened mascara I have to go through before I can justify buying another Hourglass one.
Great video 😊
I just ordered elf lash beats. Thank you Mrs Melissa❤
I've not heard of that one. I'll look for it for sure
I haven't used Lash Paradise in years - I will have tottery it again!
I love the Sky High. I use a couple of coats then top off with my Unlimited.
Very useful vdo..thank you ❤❤
Thanks for liking
Wow, I have never been the first commenter. Thanks for this video! My main concerns are smudging and flaking from watery eyes and oily skin
I love the lash paradise, and sky high- I also love the Milanis tubing mascara in the green tube and the It cosmetics super hero both killers. But my all time favorite is Loreal Voluminous Mascara - I've been wearing it since I was in my 20's. This is my go to forever. Always performs and never lets me down... thankyou Melissa
I haven't tried that one in years! I need to try it again!
Can you do a video on the tubing mascara drugstore or high end?
My favorite and the one I always go back to time and time again is IT Super Hero Mascara!
Love this video! I liked the elf lash it loud but the brush is just too prickly it's actually painful if you poke yourself with it. I didn't like the green lash princess from essence so maybe I'll try the waterproof. I agree I love the mabelline sky high. I guess I'm cheap because I don't want to spend $10 on a mascara since I use so much of it every day. Does the loreal lash paradise have fragrance in it? I can't remember why I didn't like it.
Thanks, Mrs. M! My personal fave is the original L’Oréal Telescopic. It separates my lashes so perfectly and the teeth on the wand grabs every single lash. I like it so much I am not even curious to try the new “lift” version. Isn’t that odd? I sure experiment with everything else, especially skin care. 😊
Hey if it works, definitely don't change it! 😉
Your lashes look great. I haven't been able to do my lower lashes in years. I find that the Lash Paradise has little fibers in it that get in my eyes.
Oh that's not good!
Yes to Lash Paradise plus the primer‼️❤️
Awesome!
Wow, love your hair colour.
Oh thank you!
I’m getting that primer and the L’Oréal Lash Paradise. I’ve been using Hourglass tubing mascara in the gold tube lately.
Oh I soooo agree with you lash paradise IS the best !!
I love the Covergirl Clump Crusher waterproof mascara.
Great one for sure
Mascara is vital for me because of my wimpy lashes. I 'm thrilled to have found Bobbi Brown's Smokey Eye Mascara. It's the best, and gives me long, gorgeous lashes! I recently purchased a 2 pack of them from Ulta so I won't run out! Love the pics of you, Melissa! ❤ Hace you considered going blonde again? XXOO ❤️
I just rediscovered LOreal Unlimited mascara. My droopy, sparse eyelashes stayed curled upward even after several coats and they looked fabulously long and thick w/ no smearing or flaking. I had been using waterproof mascara to achieve the same effects. Now I can wash my face without using special mascara remover.
Oh wow!! Thanks for sharing!!
Lash Paradise and Lash Princess have been my go-to's since I got serious about makeup 5 years ago. But they've let me down this year. I'm just not that happy with them. I am now using Covergirl Exhibitionist and I LOVE it. I have also tried some others this year that I like, especially Milani Anti-Gravity. I use the Maybelline Lash Discovery on my bottom lashes, too. Oh, I also love L'Oreal Butterfly Sculpt.
Which Covergirl Exhibitionist specifically? I've seen more than one.
@@erinderooy3472 The waterproof one in the silver tube. Sorry, I don't have the packaging anymore and it just says Exhibitionist on the tube.
I think the original silver tube is the best
Haven't tried the butterfly one. Need to pick it up!!
Maybelline Lash Sensational and thr Loreal primer (white tube) are my favorites
Love Sky High! Not really found in drug store but Ulta’s New Heights is the mascara I keep going back to. And it’s along the same price bracket as drug store.
I'll have to give it a try!
My new favorite mascara is the tubing mascara... it's like wearing false eyelashes and absolutely no flaking!! Don't ever want to go back to regular mascara
What brand of the tubing mascara do you use? Thanks!
There is a new Tarte
howl.me/ckHSiXX2K7V
Milani
amzn.to/46C1shX
Caliray
howl.me/ckHSk2kE3g4
And Thrive
go.magik.ly/ml/1wy7g/
Of the 4, I think the Tarte is my favorite!
Same here! I love the Milani tubing mascara. I find it very compatible with Thrive!
Maybelline Sky High is a dupe for the Better Than Sex mascara.
I'll be so happy when the day comes that I find my holy grail mascara...👀😁 I'm still searching.. my lashes are so sparse... and lash growth serum isn't in my budget. YOUR LASHES ARE GORGEOUS!!❤🥰 Beautiful pictures sweet friend!!💟🩷🫶🏼💓👑💓🫶🏼🩷💟
Try the ordinary lash growth it’s 15 and does a good job.
Yes, I agree with buzzydecker....The Ordinary lash serum is good. I was using a high end lash serum and decided to try The Ordinary. The main difference I've noticed is that The Ordinary lash serum doesn't give you the LONGER lashes that you get with the more expensive lash serums, however, it will definitely thicken up your lash line. If you have a sparse lash line, then definitely give it a try. It will give you more lashes!! I'm on my second tube now, and I will continue to purchase. I use it only once a day. I apply it at night before bed.
I only just tried the maybelline sky high, and it's the best I've tried in ages!
Agree 💯!
Thanks My Melissa have a good day. Jennifer 😊
You too Jennifer!! 💜💜💜
The Sephora Collection size up mascara is really good. I’ve purchased it multiple times.
I think I've tried that one but can't completely remember! Lol
Favorite mascara is maybelline falsies surreal. Typically I use three different mascaras, one for volume , one for length, and one to seal it, either a tubing, or a waterproof. This one can go all day alone.
I really like Maybelline Falsies Lash Lift, it doesn't flake, smudge, or clump on me like the green lash princess does sometimes. I even fell asleep with it on and I didn't have raccoon eyes the next morning.
I really want to try Elf's new Lash Xtndr tubing mascara that's supposed to be a dupe for Thrive cosmetics.
Thank you
Melissa - I love your everyday makeup videos! Finally someone with super pale skin too! My mascara has to be brown as black is way too stark on me. Thing is it's hard to find a good for your lashes mascara that's drugstore priced, brown and works well on stubby/sparse lashes. Help!
Hi Sheri
This one says "washable true brown"
amzn.to/3rxvep6
yes like the highsky
Love this video! For the longest time and for so many years the CG Lash Blast (orange Tube) was my perfect mascara for the top lashes and the CG Green tube (clump crusher) was my favorite for lower lashes...(high maintenance, I know...) but.. they must have changed the formula b/c it stopped working for me... since then the repeat purchase has been the Maybelline Lash Sensation (pink tube) and their Sky High - and I love the primer too. A great combo of late has been the Maybelline Lash Sensational followed by the L'Oreal Telescopic for more length! I still use the Sky High on bottom lashes (in brown) - absolutely zero smudges or raccoon eyes.... I WISH the Lash Paradise worked for me! I've tried it so many times and I just can't fall in love with it. The only higher end mascara I will spend money on is the L'Ancome Lash Idole - and I only get the travel size when I'm waiting in line at Ulta (those darn little sample size sections always get me!) love that mascara too! xoxoxo love ya, Melissa!
Oh no, I've loved the orange tube CG. They changed? Rats! Well, it's time for a new mascara so I'll see how it works on me. If not, maybe the Sky High, since they have washable in brown (black doesn't work for blondish-grey hair - too stark and fake).
It drives me crazy when they change formulas!!! Uhg!
Lash Paradise is my fave drugstore brand mascara. I have been in the habit of applying false lashes daily for the past 3 years (I know it sounds extra, but I love the look and can apply them quicker than than the time it takes to build up a few coats of mascara). I do use a coat of mascara before applying the falsies, so Lash Paradise has a permanent spot in my kit. I also keep a tube of the newer waterproof version.
Thanks for sharing Trish! I wish I could master false lashes!
I've used Baby Oil to take off my mascara ince 1987! & it just works! My favs are Sky High, Thrive & the Milani in the turquoise wand. I also wear the Maybelline pink/green tube Royal Blue when I wear purple shadows! The Lancome ones are good but why pay more... 💜Lash Paradise flakes on me...
Great tip Kat!
Hi Melissa, I love you with brown hair
It makes you look younger ❤
Thank so very much Donna!
Lash Paradise and Sky High never let me down!! I also love Lash Princess.
Great minds think alike!
Great video :-) Love your new haircolour.... Very flattering
Thank you!! 😊
Elf is the only one of the list I haven't used. I need easy to get off! Hate tugging on my eyelashes!
My all time favorite mascara is Thrive. It works perfect for me. After that it would be most of the LOreal mascaras in waterproof.
That's a great one too Anne! 👍
Hey Melissa. I'm still searching for my "favorite" mascara. I just can't seem to find the one that checks all the boxes... I know it is out there... just being elusive right now! Thanks for all you do for your viewers!
You'll find it Julie!!! Keep the faith! Lol 😁😆💜
Thrive Causemetics tubing mascara is the best mascara for me. I love a tubing formula. They come off so easy.
That is a great one!
Again we agree on what’s #1…❤️😂😍
Awesome!
Im in search of a new favorite. Tried so many. Most irritating, flake or end up under my eye. My favorite that was discontinued was Loreal Lash Out. Havent found one like it! I just have to settle with CoverGirl Exhibitionist, Loreal Lash Paradise, and MILK.
All good choices, however, my current favorite mascara is the Milani Highly Rated Lash Extensions....
That's a great one too
I have the Sky High but haven't opened it because I'm addicted to Thrive! I do occasionally use one by L'Oréal and it's Lash Paradise. That one has a primer. I also love the Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect and don't have any issues with flaking or black undereyes. But I'm on subscription to Thrive. I love Tubing mascaras! Thanks for the great suggestions! I have a whole drawer of false lashes but haven't been putting forth the effort to put them on! I think a black primer is genius because I'm guilty of forgetting my mascara after putting on primer 😂😂 Love ya gal! ❤ ~lori
I love a black primer too! Exactly for the same reason! Love ya girlfriend!
You should try the essence new mascara... Like a boss. The one in pink metallic tube .. It is amazing, no flacky or anything and the bedst.. It holds the curl writ only one layer.
Big hugs from Denmark 🌹🥰
Thanks for the tip!
If there is one mascara I seem to always go to is my it cosmetics mascara. Its the only one that never let's me down.
I'm so glad you found the perfect one for you Janelle! ❤️
I like ur hair darker u look stunning have a great day
Thank you so much Denise
How about sensitive eyes / dry eyes,which one would you suggest?
I also like Rimmel wonder volume thrill seeker in extreme black
I'm just testing some Rimmel Mascaras. I'm liking them too Alicia!
I think I’m going to take the plunge with the Sky High from Maybelline or Lash Paradise. I’ve been wanting to try Sky High for a while but I already had a mascara I was using. Now my mascara is old and needs to be tossed. I’m ready for a new one!
If you love sky high original you should try their cosmic black version in the black tube. It’s sooooooo good.
I agree!
My favourite mascara of all time was Marc Jacobs Beauty - Velvet Noir it was so perfect. I still keep my last tube for nostalgia lol 😢
I do like Benefits Roller Lash still. That's what I use now. But I would love to find a dupe for the Marc Jacobs.
It's so frustrating when you find the perfect thing & they discontinue it! Uhg!
Velvet Noir was the best!!!
Just FYI, #6 you're showing lash beats, it looks like. I love lash it/out loud.
I noticed that!
Oh poop! I think you're right! My bad!
Sky High, Falsies Lash Lift and Telescopic are my top 3. Lash Paradise was terrible, clumpy. I never could understand the fascination with Essence or elf. Never used any of their mascaras that did anything for my lashes.
My absolute favourite mascara is Flower Beauty Lash Warrior. Unfortunately Flower Beauty, for whatever reason, is becoming hard to get in Australia. I don’t know what’s going on with Flower and Essence. 😢
I keep wondering if Flower is going out. I sure hope not!
@@MrsMelissaM I hope not. I love so many of their products.
ok im buying your favorite from your channel.... after i finish the 5 i have from other brands!!
I hope you love it Jill
I tried the green Lash Princess not for me I don’t understand why so many people like it . I continue using Double Extend LOreal because the tubing is so easy to remove and works for me. I really dislike taking off mascara even ones that aren’t waterproof always irritates my eyes. What product would you say takes off non waterproof mascara the easiest ?. I would like to try the lash paradise if I can find a good remover . ❤️
Hi Nancy. The very best for me is a cleansing Balm,
amzn.to/3tiIApN
But my best secret weapon is to use the cloths with it
They are awesome!
amzn.to/46eYW15
The only one I have tried from your list has been the Essence but I do like it. Good thing you don't live in Australia though if you think $30 is a lot for a Mascara- both Sky High and Lash Paradise are RRP AU$26 if they are not on sale! Our prices here are so much more expensive and we don't have a lot of the cheaper brands, nor do we have the range.
Oh my goodness! That's terrible!
Hi Melissa, what is a good mascara for the lower lashes?
Usually a Waterproof works best for me. The Maybelline Sky High Waterproof is great.
amzn.to/3ZCzmR8
But if you're not comfortable with a Waterproof, I would try the Essence Waterproof I showed. It's pretty easy to take off.
Lash Paradise is no joke!
😁🩷
