These are my favorite. But it is the mini version, so it is kind of used up. I just cant bear to throw them away cause I love them so much. Anna Sui, long. It is for lengthening. Tiny brush, thin, really nice for lower lashes. Elizabeth Arden, double density, maximum volume mascara. This is magic. For such a not many talk about brand, well usually just for skin care, its makeup (mascara) is awesome. It really give the lashes thickness. I guess the other reason why I like them so much is cause of the small packaging. I used to have the Dior show mascara, but once it dried up, I just throw them away. Even though it is one of the mascara I actually like using. So I guess that is the different between products. Either you love them or you love them that you cant bear to throw it away.
