Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	I checked at Mac and they no longer have green mascara. Just wondering if anyone knows who else might carry it, or is it outdated? I remember it from high school. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Or Dotsie you could buy a green eye pencil and black mascara. Just draw a very thin line over the top of your eyelashes and one on the bottom lashes with the green pencil, then use black mascara on the lashes. It will make your eyes look greener. I do this with blues... _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

It reminds me of Nona from high school who always wore bright blue mascara and flirted with all the guys. She actually slept with one of my boyfriends (since I wouldn't, I guess he had to find someone!). So, blue mascara = bad memories. Plus I think it looks kind of tacky. But then I'm no fashion maven so who am I to say? Kathy

Princess Lenora Member Registered: 11/11/04 Posts: 3503 Loc: Colorado	Dotsie, what look are you trying to achieve? Whatever it is, I don't think green mascara is the answer. Eye liner or eye shadow maybe, but in a carefully chosen shade, best done at a counter. I read the entire previous thread on mascara and I must have missed the highest and best recommendation. They say that make up artists use Maybelline in the pink and green tube, but it makes my eyes itch now, just as it did over 30 years ago. I am currentlyof very frustrated with mascara. So, let's start again: what mascara(s) have you had success with, meaning no clumping, bumping, chipping, or flaking. P.S. Kathy, sorry to hear about little miss tacky. _________________________ "Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice." http://beyondthetears.blogspot.com http://www.facebook.com/lynn.tolson http://www.facebook.com/pages/Beyond-the-Tears-A-True-Survivors-Story/130880013605676

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Princess try one of the hypo alergic brands and that may help the itching. To prevent any clumping make sure your brush is not clumped with mascara, put it on in coats, one and then wait a minute and put on another. I have extremely long lashes but they are blonde and practically invisible so I use black mascara and never have clumps. I use the Maybelline pink ands green one. There are many brands that don't clump but if itchy eyes plague you I wouldn't bother with them... _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

Princess Lenora Member Registered: 11/11/04 Posts: 3503 Loc: Colorado	Thanks Chatty. Yes the green & pink. I used it in my 20's and I thought I'd try it again, 30 years later. But it's true I need hypo allergenic. I am wondering what the others are using? _________________________ "Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice." http://beyondthetears.blogspot.com http://www.facebook.com/lynn.tolson http://www.facebook.com/pages/Beyond-the-Tears-A-True-Survivors-Story/130880013605676

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	dancer suggested it in another thread so I thought I'd give it a whirl. It sounds tacky to me, but I have green eyes so I thought I'd try it. Trust me, this is a step on the wild side. I haven't used color on my eyes since the late 70s and very rarely back then. I think the only makeup I wore for my wedding was black mascara. Kathy, loved your comment about your boyfriend. I was a good girl too. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com
