I usually stock up when I find it on sale (when Ulta has 20% off prestige deals, or HSN). There are some drugstore mascaras that I will always love, but with Roller Lash, I don't have to layer mascaras or use a primer (the Loreal Double Extend gives me the same effect), so it's easier when I'm running late (which is almost always :))Lindsey Cuddebackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08342006970521004867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-15469852560777178222016-10-31T06:11:27.736-07:002016-10-31T06:11:27.736-07:00I only buy drugstore mascara.

I maybe use a mascara a couple of times, and then it sits there until it's time to throw it out. I can't imagine spending $20+ on something I only use once or twice.KDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10280256666279850361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-3361317225518875852016-10-31T05:54:44.628-07:002016-10-31T05:54:44.628-07:00I think the most I've ever paid is about $10 f...I think the most I've ever paid is about $10 for some drugstore brand and I always look for a sale if I'm going to spend more than $5. Since mascara is ideally supposed to be tossed in three to six months, I don't want to shell out big bucks for it. But I've tried a few higher-end varieties through deluxe samples or it was included with a purchase. There was one high-end brand that gave me nice, long lashes, but it wasn't amazing enough to merit spending something like $27 on a tube of it.

I used it way longer than I should have. I felt I needed to as paid $33.00 at the Estée Lauder outlet. Will I buy it again? Only if I can get another coupon from them to bring it down to less than $33.00, regular price is $45.00. To be honest a lot of drugstore mascaras dont work well for me. And that is ok...not everything works for everyone. I am currently using an UD Perversion sample and I love it!!! Now that I am thinking I have so many mascara samples I don't need to buy any no time soon. Also I purchased the Dior primer during the last Sephora sale and it is the best primer I have ever used! I didn't really use it under mascara...it was way to dramatic for my taste. But as an overnight primer...two thumbs up. I have that on my list to purchase this Friday!!!

I too have tried expensive and cheap ones and I find the differences to be negligible between the two. That is to say, the good drug store stuff that works well for you is going to be practically as good as the expensive stuff. I personally prefer silicone over fiber wands and think Loreal Voluminous Butterfly and Covergirl Bloom are best currently sitting on drug store shelves (though I have not tried the Loreal Feline line yet, that's supposed to be good too).Cyanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07783288687551183267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-47541518251351116852016-10-30T21:04:00.324-07:002016-10-30T21:04:00.324-07:00try adding a few drops of visine in it,,,I almost ...try adding a few drops of visine in it,,,I almost tossed out a new tarte mascara because it was too clumpy,,, a few drops of visine and now it is perfect!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18245095206356530950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923437194678664102.post-35683172579627306542016-10-30T18:52:38.403-07:002016-10-30T18:52:38.403-07:00Definicils (Hi Definicils with the teeth comb inst...Definicils (Hi Definicils with the teeth comb instead of a brush) a few years ago when it was $24.

I was kind of shocked because, c'mon it's Dior, right? It's a shame though. I still use it but I'm just glad I didn't pay full price for it.
