A couple of years ago I did a little Maybelline vs Maybelline mascara face off to see which of the 3 grocery store mascaras in my makeup bag {at the time} was the best of the best.
Maybelline has of course come up with about eleventy billion different kinds of INTENSE EYELASH FIBER EXTENSION miracle mascaras by now, but these are some oldies and I thought it would be fun to pull this out again and see what some of the new readers think.
I’m a true blue through and through green and pink mascara lover, but my makeup bag runneth over these days; I’m currently dating about ten different brands and they’ve wooed me with their eyelash magic.
I’m just not the same gal I was two years ago.
It’s not you, it’s me.
{not really, it’s you}
Here’s a blind test for you: tell me which mascara goes to which numbered photo below. The contenders are: The Colossal Volume Express Mascara, XXL Pro Volume Washable Mascara , + Great Lash Mascara
I know it’s a little bit hard to tell from the photos. I think I need to do another mascara face off, this time with a bunch of different brands. For the time being though, which mascara goes with which spidery lashes?
Answers later today!

You totally win Dawn! My love and admiration are sent your way.
Dangit! I got here too late. Hand to g*d, I had the same answers as Dawn! (I am dating all three of those mascaras right now, so I know their fine points)
DGM, you win too! you win! It’s Monday, winners all around!
Haha, yay! Thank you!
Well, I currently have 4 mascaras in my makeup bag and it looks like I will be adding Colossal.
Why is it that I wear makeup maybe twice a month, yet I have a ridiculous amount of it? There is something about buying makeup that just makes my inner child squeee!
Random question, but I only see about every 3rd post you put up on my google reader. Is anyone else having this problem?
