Is mascara for men not just...mascara?
(Don't wear it so I've no recommendations but sure there must already be a mascara thread.

'They' do 'do' mascara for men.
Amazon and Boots.com are your friends as is TikTok for How To's.

I've been reading in Men's Health that Superdrug do some at only £6,50. But given other places are from £17,50 to £65 I can't help but wonder if the cheap one is any good.
Is it the case that the expensive ones are better, or is it just profiteering?

Please don't put on mascara and wear your Spanish football top down the pub.

What's the difference between mascara for men and regular old mascara?

Just thinking that mascara from the pound shop is probably just as good.

Bear in mind that it'll depend on what you want to achieve. Like, some mascara is very dramatic, almost like wearing false eyelashes, and some is so subtle it does fuck all. I suspect specialist men's mascara is largely in the latter category. It's often not at all obvious from the packaging what you're getting.
You want to pick the colour accordingly too ie the darker the more dramatic, and to suit your own colouring.
Also most mascara has evil plastic microfibres in to lengthen and give body. If you want to avoid this go for Body Shop or something similar.

I reccomend clinique mascara for hypoallergenic.
My personal fave is bad gal by benefit.
No7 - Boots own brand is good.
Please don't get sucked into the marketing shit aiming it at men. It s bullshit. Just get mascara.

Don't use Collection Lash Surge. It's clumpy and sticky and my ceasing to use it has coincided with my eyes being less watery and itchy. I am usually about as reactive as a rhinoceros.
I thought I'd developed hay fever or been over-wearing my contact lenses, but chucking it away and using a Maybelline one has made my eyes seem much more comfortable.

Down here we use engine oil and coal dust, applied with a wire brush.

Does that serum really work? I have ridiculously shirt and stumpy lashes (confirmed by an eye specialist when I had to go to a and e once) but it's a bit spendy to take a punt on.

Yes it does, for most people. It contains a prostaglandin analog, which was designed as a glaucoma treatment, then discovered to have the side-effect of causing rapid eyelash growth during clinical trials. You do need to exercise some caution though - it can cause atrophy of the fat round the eyes, leading to droopy eyelids and eye bags, and also eye irritation, so stop using it if this is the case. I find it's turned my sparse, crap eyelashes into longer more glam versions with no side effects. Works in about 3 weeks!

worked it out now!
it’s very much depends on what you want it to do so the effect you are looking for. I prefer a thin brush.
What are you wanting from it? I ask as there is also eyelash dye if it’s more natural colour & definition you want.

Not far off it - Ancient Mascaras were made out of blood/soot, toxic heavy metals and sulphide minerals, mixed-up with lard.
Proper guy stuff..!
