Just for the sake of argument, here’s my naked lashes.

And so:

CLARINS Length & Curve Mascara, €26
They look pretty clumpy in the first photo, which they really weren’t. The second image shows them to better advantage. That is Intense Brown, which you may not have thought. They look nice and black to me!

***

RIMMEL LONDON Scandaleyes Retro Glam, €8.99
So fake looking, in the best possible sense!

***

BOURJOIS Volume Clubbing Blackjack Mascara, €10.49
I heart this a lot because it is so seriously thickening.

***

LANCÔME Hypnôse Doll Lashes Mascara, €28
We’ve seen this one before; in this case, I only had time to do one coat, and I think it looks pretty substantial.

***

Finally, here’s a reminder about the Electric Blue stuff via Maybelline Colossal Color Shock Mascara, €10.75; I wore it out into the world, and it was noticeable in ‘Ohh, like yer blue lashes’ way.

Finally, finally, a shot I like to call Daft Noir Selfie.

I am especially proud of the daft shadow of my phone, and my hands holding it.
