Nearly all of the beautiful and wonderful pictures are processed by software, which means the advertisements are only too good to be true. In my experience, some mascara from Japan is very good, water-proofing and not easy to smudge. If you want your lashes look longer and thicker, try to mix two or more different mascaras. My suggestion is you apply your thickening mascara first and before it goes dry, apply your lengthening mascara. Sometimes old mascara goes well with a new one, but that's not very frequent.
