Man, I can't even imagine NOT wearing mascara. It's one of the "non-negotiables" for me when it comes to my makeup. I feel naked without it. I always want dramatic mascara, too - to quote a favorite beauty blog, "Go drag or go home!" After years of trying many different mascaras and formulas, I'm finally happy with Tarte's Lights, camera, lashes.
Covergirl makes a couple of decent mascaras, but as indie makeup junkies I feel compelled to point out that the company gets a grade of "F" from the book "Better World Business." (An interesting little reference guide, that. Companies are graded based on human rights, the environment, animal protection, community involvement, and social justice.) It's named as a corporate villain for trade in Burma (Myanmar, mob etc), millions of dollars to lobbyists, and the continuation of lots of unnecessary animal testing. Just if you care to know about such things.
Revlon does good makeup, so does Rimmel, I believe. I was usually pretty happy with Maybelline mascaras, and they have probably ten to choose from, at least!
