A big thank-you from me Akimbo! I regularly use the CID mascara you posted the OTO details of and would recommend it. Over the years, like most people I have tried loads of different mascaras some good, some useless. My all time favourite was the Presciptives false lash mascara, sadly no longer around and this one is the nearest I have found to compare. It has a good smallish brush, builds well with a couple of quick coats with no clogging and doesn't flake off during the day. It gets my vote as you can tell, suggest you get yours out and try it Akimbo!!
