| Hi, I am looking for a coloured mascara preferrably something that is subtle and not to bright. I would also prefer that it lenghthens and thickens the lashes. The colours i like are navy blue, plum and a violet. Any recommendations? Thanks |

For plum and violet, try Lancome Flextencils (they have a nice plum shade) and also Blinc Kiss Me mascara (for the violet). Both very nice  Also, Clarins curling mascara has a violet shade as well which is subtle. That mascara tends to flake on me a little bit though... |

I've tried the mascara in blue from Yves Rocher. The price is so reasonable.
My friend gave me an order form from Yves Rocher and I found lots of cheap but good stuff there. |

YSL Aquaresistant comes in a really gorgeous purpley-violet, and, as the name suggests, it's waterproof.
If you're not bothered about waterproof, but want a natural-looking mascara that stays put pretty well, but washes off easily when you want, I can also recommend Dr Hauschka's blue. It's a definite navy colour. |

| I'm absolutely with Mabsy (again!) : don't buy Clarins, the colour is nice though, it gets flakey pretty fast. I'm getting back to Lancome, again and again. |

For anyone in the UK looking for inexpensive coloured mascara Superdrug is a little haven...Barry M and there is another range which I can't recall the name of right now but excellent value for money  |

| I think a plum or aubergine colour would look beautiful on you. |

| Check out americanbeautyzonedotcom . There's a couple of mascara products which might be of interest to you. I do have a financial interest in that site, so I don't want to come across as the marketer, just so you know. |

| For a subtle and inexpensive option ... try the Cover Girl Exact Lash in "Blue" shade. It's a subtle denim blue shade ... I have naturally black lashes so it isn't very blue-ish on me, but on someone with lighter lashes, I can see it being very nice. Worth a try if it is available in your area. |

| Almay makes a nice colored mascara. I have the violet and topaz and I like them both. |
