My holy grail is Great Lash by Maybelline. Though I'm not really a big fan of the new curved brush... I don't think it does anything really. But it goes on smooth and doesn't clump and comes in non-waterproof (which doesn't seem to exist in Japan...) and it's not super expensive! I don't need any of that lengthening, thickening bullshit so this one is great.

I'm leaning more towards July too... but we'll see.
