No you don't! The "1"s come up first and the brands go down in ratings from there. (or maybe you will have to fix your search parameters so that it pops up that way for you like it does for me).
You can then look at the "1"s and safely ignore the rest.
I know. There are 8 pages of 1 and 2 rated mascaras.
So scroll down until you find a familiar, easy-to-find brand name and you're golden
The list has two common drugstore mascaras that are readily available: Almay and Physician's Formula.
ETA: you can also set your parameters to 50 items per page rather than 10, and *bingo* - no more 8 pages

Or we just tell Lena what to buy since she asked! :-)

I went to a 24-hour mascara Covergirl Lash Blast. The why is there is less racoon eyes after a shower. Sometimes I can use a toothbrush on my lashes and no more mascara. I don't remove it every night. I know if I sweat while exercising, it won't run off.
I usually don't have sweat running into my eyes but there are those occasions.
I quit foundation, eye brow color, etc. except for dress occasions.
I also wear 24 hour lipstick.

You can not lose with this stuff and it's cheap and has been around for as long as I have been it's so good. No fad product, no allergy issues, or hard to find products at a low cost for me. Maybelline Great Lash in Very Black. Best. Stuff. Ever!

I don't use Great Lash, but it's a classic for a reason. I'd say that would be the safest recommendation to use.
Psst! Speaking of classics, if you want to add some color to your lips get Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey. Universally flattering for petty much everyone. I always have a tube!

I buy Estee Lauder lip gloss and have been for years. I still have tons of various lipsticks from my pre-looking-like-crap days. Reading all the responses I hope I don't get the urge to go and buy all those mascaras. That would be very un-YM of me.....

I use Maybelline Colossal volume. 9 X the volume or so it says. I don't use waterproof because I swear it makes my lashes fall out.

I use Lancome mascara. All my make-up is Lancome. Yes, not very YM. Don't care. Lancôme used to make the very best mascara ever. It was called Immencils or something like that. I gave the best volume but they discontinued it 15-20 years ago & replaced it with an inferior product. I stopped buy Lancôme after that.

It seems to be happening with a lot of companies and products. I used to be OK paying more for things bc it was worth it. Now, it doesn't matter - it's crap everywhere.

I don't know about all their products, but I really like the Definicils. It's a nice, natural looking mascara. It doesn't clump and adds just enough pop to look polished.
