Lauren says ‘Good-quality mascara with a nice soft brush. Really liked the sparkly effect – fantastic for a party look. ★ ★ ★ ★ Photograph: Sara Morris
Gorgeous packaging. Coats the lashes well but is, if anything, too waterproof – even with make-up remover I found it difficult to budge. ★ ★ Photograph: Sara Morris
Tricky to apply to top lashes but it is really good for coating underneath your eye, particularly for accentuating separate lashes. ★ ★ ★ Photograph: Sara Morris
This is my favourite. The brush itself is fantastic for coating every single lash so you don’t have to keep reapplying – and it doesn’t smudge. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Photograph: Sara Morris
I love the consistency of this – really glossy and black. I was less keen on the vibrating stick – a bit tricksy – but a good result overall. ★ ★ ★ Photograph: Sara Morris
Sleek-looking mascara, although not sure about the advantage of having brushes at each end – the larger one was good and applied well. ★ ★ ★ Photograph: Sara Morris
