Mavala also won the 2008 Best Beauty Essentials award for its 002 Double Base [coat]. It will protect your nails from pigmentation staining and "….It perfectly adheres to the nail plate and stays slightly sticky to allow nail polish to last almost twice as long…". May have to give it a whirl!

News to me but Mavala not only make nail varnish, they also produce mascara, eyeshadow, foundations, blushers, face treatment products, make-up remover, foot care products and hand creams as well as nail treatment products, tweezers, nail trimmers and cuticle nippers. . You can order on-line (P&P is £1.95 for 1st class post) AND their website shows you various exercises to do for your hands, face, feet, etc to keep them in tip-top shape. Sounds like a truly fabulous one...

Advantages: Look great and natural for the first few days, cheaper than other brands Disadvantages: Only last 2 weeks, look clump, false and weigh down your lashes after a few days
...of Hollywood Lashes, nearly double but when i-lash Designer eyelash extensions only last a maximum of 2 weeks and Hollywood Lashes last about 3 months, Hollywood Lashes definately work out better value.

How i-lash Designer Eyelash Extensions compare to other lash extensions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
i-lash Designer Eyelash Extensions are definately better than traditional eyelash extensions, the one day ones but they are no where near as good as other semi-permenant eyelash extensions.
They don't last like other semi-permenant eyelash extensions, they start to loosen, look obvious and clump out and only actually last for about 2 weeks. Other semi-permenant eyelash extensions don't do this at all, they last for 3 months and look perfect the whole way through...

Advantages: Boostls up your lashes!!! Disadvantages: None-at-all!!!
...a shelf and placed on it was this mascara and also L'Oreal Paris Volume Shocking Double Mascara, which are both quite similar mascaras. So I asked for her advice and she told me that the L'Oreal Paris Volume Shocking Double Mascara was shaped as a comb so it would make your lashes bulky and stuck together (which also looks drop-dead-gorgeous, I'm not saying that they won't look good that way because they will!!!) but whereas this mascara wasn't a comb it was shaped just like a normal brush which would make the lashes not attached together and apart from one another, so the choice was up to me- jammed together lashes or spaced out lashes. There were pictures showing as samples so I personally thought that this mascara was the one!!!! And that it would make my lashes look stunning. So I got it!!!
Time for the truth!!!
Now I was dying to see...

The Define-A-Lash mascara by Maybelline claims to give you long lashes, definition, and zero clumps but does it live up to expectations?

Anyone with a fondness for applying mascara will know that it doesn’t last very long and in any case should be regularly replaced in order to prevent horrible gooey eye infections. While I’m lecturing, may I remind you to stop pumping the wand?! You... more

I have been using this mascara for years and years now. I think I first tried it because many years ago I read in a magazine that it was a favourite of beauty editors and make up artists. I have tried many different types of mascara since but I always go more
I have naturally long near-black lashes so I often just curl them when applying makeup. However, it can be nice to have a bit of a different look and accentuate my lashes, sometimes instead of wearing colour. I’m no expert on mascara as I’ve only owned more
