I've tried so many brands that just don't work for me but have been pleasantly surprised by -https://www.sephora.com/product/rare-beauty-by-selena-gomez-perfect-strokes-universal-volumizing-mascara-P475599?skuId=2474138&icid2=products%20grid:p475599:product

I put off trying it cause I'm always skeptical about celebrity brands but so far, so good!

I've never tried it because its an MLM

That is just false. It’s not MLM.

Thrive does not flake if you are using an appropriately fresh tube. Older tubes will result in flakey mascara…agreed

There is or used to be a diet/supplement company called Thrive that’s an MLM so I get the confusion.

I picked it up on a whim in the sale and I can’t believe you like it! The bristles are so short and rubbery it’s almost like applying with a smooth stick. I can’t put it on without major clumping. Maybe I’m doing something wrong.

I haven't worn makeup regularly since 2020 but wear Lancome Definicils Mascara when I do. I think I've been wearing it for maybe 20 years? I'm happy with it and haven't found a reason to replace it.

Benefit BadGal Bang! is my all time favorite. Never flakes. Never clumps.

I buy the sets of minis when they're on sale at Sephora. Otherwise, I get whatever strikes my fancy at the drugstore. I have yet to find anything I love as much as Max Factor 2000 Calories, and they don't sell it in the U.S. anymore.

Love it!

Same. I'm kind of fussy about my lash length (I use latisse, etc to keep them long) and although I like mascaras like They're Real, I only use tubing to minimize damage wear and tear. Victoria Beckham makes a mascara called Future Lash that has similar properties but isnt tubing and creates length without much volume (I use for daytime).

I've held off on trying tubing mascara because I worry that I'll pull out my eyelashes when trying to remove it. Is it REALLY that easy to remove?

I hate Thrive because it flakes.

Same, it was a lot less than 10 hours for me.

I agree, I bought it because so many people recommended it and it was so awful that I returned it.

I returned my too, for a refund, after it made my lashes fall out.

I'm the OP. After about 10 hours of wear, it starts to flake off for me.
