Beauty fans are raving about a budget Amazon mascara that has been hailed as "better than" most from premium beauty brands like Mac, Lancome and Benefit, which can cost upwards of £30. The 'no clump' mascara has more than 200,000 five-star reviews from Amazon customers, with many claiming it feels more like a luxury product, despite its bargain price tag.
