Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

I had a love/hate relationship with ZoomLash.

I hated how much product came out on the brush. sometimes it was hard to fix all the clumps.
but there were days that it made my lashes look "WOW"
I often got compliments.

Im currently using L'oreal Voluminous with the curved brush.

But i think i will try ZoomLash again with the 205 brush as recommended above...thanks frances!!!

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

i have zoom lash and i personally think that it works just excellent to me..it does not give me blah lashes..and since i use it with my prep and prime lash,it gives me very volume lashes and evenly spread lashes.no regrets

Amen. Just like foundations target different skin types, mascaras target different types of lashes. It is all very subjective as well.

That being said, Zoom isn't my fave. If I had to pick my fave MAC mascara, it would be Fibre Rich. It just does me right when I use it with the #205. Generally though I use Dior-Diorshow Unlimited mascara.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

Whoever said mascara was personal was so right.
I have tried all kinds of mascara including zoomlash (which I don't like ) and the only one that has been my fav is Lancome's definicils it is the best to me
Zoomlash is now in my draw for b2m

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

I like it better than Fibre Rich. Fibre Rich flaked under my eyes.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

Well, mascaras are like foundation, theres one for different kinds of eye lashes which is why you should ask questions before buying a certain product. Depending on the length of your eyelashes and personal choice, they'll make suggestions on which mascara will work better for you.

Zoomlash looks fantastic on me and it doesn't really clump.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

I *love* Zoomlash, it gives me a false eyelash look, my lashes look lovely and long and they hold the curl, but as everyone has said mascara is a very personal one, everyone is different.

The one mascara I truly hate from MAC is Loudlash though - it did NOTHING apart from make my lashes look a little darker. Not the look I want to achieve when I apply mascara. I tried it on one eye and then promptly forgot about it.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

I find that with a lot of mascaras, especially the ones that really volumize lashes, the first week or so they are a pain in the ... but then perform wonderfully. And it's not that it takes me some time to figure out how to wear it best (though sometimes it does), it happens even when I buy the same mascara several times in a row.

On the mascara note - did any of you, fabulous gals, tried Mascara X?

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

Zoomlash needs a.) time and b.) a practiced hand. There's definitely a certain movement needed to get the full effect of the mascara.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

i despise zoom lash, i have really long lashes and it doesnt work for me. i prefer Rimmel Volume Flash

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

Haven't tried Zoomlash, but Fibrelash was the worst mascara ever for me. If was a clumpy mess that dried out in weeks. Yucky.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

Whatever problems I've had with Zoom, I've always had worse ones with other mascaras. I always come back to this. I agree with other ladies about using a light hand- and scraping the extra off the brush is a must. A few clumps and a little extra time to make this mascara work are totally worth it in my opinion...the end result is always amazing! My lashes have never looked so long and beautiful. Zoomblack is my fav

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

I love Zoomlash - omg and with the 205!!! Who needs falsies?!

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

I bought it and thought it was crap to be honest. It definitely lengthened my lashes. It was the first time my bf commented on them and said woah they're long, but i thought it was... what's the word?... a bit spindely? Like not very volumizing at all. In fact i felt the need to put another mascara over the top. So far my all time favorite mascara (and it's cheap yay!

) is MAYBALLINE BLACKEsT BLACK MASCARA ! I've also tried Fiberlash and I love it. Nice and clumpy ( i like thick clumpy lashes!! )

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

I *love* Zoomlash (a few weeks after it's opened) but it's messy: I actually use a different mascara (a less messy one with a better brush) to coat all my lashes as a basecoat, then just slick a bit of ZL over the top to add ooomph.... it makes my lashes look blacker and fuller than other mascaras I've tried, and I find it also has a nice, light silky feel compared to other volumising mascaras I've bought in the past. And the price is pretty reasonable.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

Zoomlash is great, i love it. the formula is incredible but the brush is what makes it suck so much.

i took an old Clinique mascara wand, cleaned it off with alcohol really well, and used that with the Zoomlash (it fit in the tube and could even screw in) and it is amazing. If you have problems with Zoomlash, try using a different wand like i did.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

i usually put zoomlash on with some random avon mascara over it. zoomlash by itself just doesn't cut it.

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

For me, Zoomlash has gotten better with about six months' worth of age. I've got really really long lashes and most mascaras just clump my lashes together and piss me off; Zoomlash actually goes on and makes my lashes look curvy and delectable.

However, it doesn't cut it by itself. I usually put on one coat of Zoomlash, comb it out with my 205 brush (of which I need another because I'm so obsessive about combing my lashes out, all the bristles of my 205 are now curled and warped), and put on a coat of Pro Lash, then comb that out. I adore the look that gets: deep, dark, fluttery fluffy lashes that're long as hell. Granted it takes me about an hour before I get it the way I like it, but it's worth it.

Zoomlash works better as a base for me more than anything. Even better than Prep + Prime Lash (though I like wearing that just on it's own for these awesome white-tipped fibre-fluffy lashes).

Re: Zoom lash - worst mascara?

Whenever I wear Zoomlash I *always* get compliments on my lashes. You just have to make sure the brush doesnt have too much product in it and brush a few times to separate them. It really does hold a curl too! My only gripe with this is that it makes my eyes feel so heavy. I dont know why. Anyone else?
My 2nd favorite for everyday is Max Factor 2000 calorie for a softer yet lush lashes look.
Another good one is Chanel Inimitable but who wants to pay $25 for a mascara? NOT I.
Oh, Mascara X made my eyes feel like they were burning!!!
