But some wise person once said "finding a perfect foundation and mascara is a never ending journey for women" or something. Let's hope the other two (Lancome and Dior) are much better. :)Lena Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10485496107102256334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5943243351869685029.post-16405193492742613382014-08-17T10:26:48.458-04:002014-08-17T10:26:48.458-04:00I had a sample of the non-waterproof version and f...I had a sample of the non-waterproof version and felt it was just meh. But I have difficult lashes and most mascaras and I are not friends. Having said that, if I ever do find the perfect mascara, I'd buy it even if it costs $40 since I saved a lot of money not buying mascaras in my lifetime, lol.Liz (Beauty Reductionista)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12248806073054637457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5943243351869685029.post-50307739151255229622014-08-17T01:58:54.303-04:002014-08-17T01:58:54.303-04:00What is worse is that I find Voluminous a better m...What is worse is that I find Voluminous a better mascara.

Can't see myself spending $30 on a mascara that will expire in 6 months :( Sometimes I use my sephora points to try out a high end mascara once in a while. Luckily you got this on sale. I wish there was a Nordstrom rack in Canada!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.macaronsandmischief.com" rel="nofollow">Macarons and Mischief</a>wheetneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02772558007760687563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5943243351869685029.post-82671696975579149262014-08-15T13:22:37.748-04:002014-08-15T13:22:37.748-04:00Oh, in that case, I'd do the exact same thing ...Oh, in that case, I'd do the exact same thing as you!

In terms of drugstore mascaras, our drugstore mascaras and the exact same ones that you have in the US sell here for about $15-20US so I would much rather spend the same price for a japanese/korean brand mascara that works much better for me than one from l'oreal/maybelline. I love my mascara with fiber and the japanese make the most waterproof and I find the fiber so buildable without looking weird on the tips of the lashes!Sharlynn https://www.blogger.com/profile/16757611222415772717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5943243351869685029.post-45025899413860363692014-08-15T12:05:53.416-04:002014-08-15T12:05:53.416-04:00I agree!
