My Top Ten Mascaras

Are you a mascara addict?  I am!  Drugstore, high end, you name it!  I tend to become obsessed with a mascara, purchase three tubes of the same product, then get distracted by something newer, prettier, or just plain well advertised!  Here are my Top Ten Mascaras (of past and present, I don’t own them ALL right now) that I would purchase again in a heartbeat.

*butter LONDON mascara provided for review.  All other mascaras purchased by me.
  1. Kiss Me Heroine Make Long and Curl Mascara – This is an absolute staple in the summer.  It will not rub, flake or smudge, plus it holds a curl ALL DAY LONG!  I have to order it (and the adorable matching remover) from overseas but it’s worth the wait!
  2. It Cosmetics Hello Lashes ($24.00) – Like all IT Cosmetics, this mascara is simply amazing, plus you can use the brush two ways!
  3. blinc mascara ($26.00) – Just as I told my friend Christine for her recent Babble Beauty article, if you have itchy, watery, allergy eyes, you need this tubing mascara!  I also want to try the new Amplified (non-tubing) version!
  4. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara ($23.00) – Right now I only have a deluxe sample size tube that I received as part of the Plump, Gloss and Glow set I purchased during the Sephora VIB sale.  I definitely plan on purchasing a full tube when I run out!  It gives me all the impact I need in just one coat.  The set is still available, check it out here!
  5. Giorgio Armani Eyes To Kill Mascara ($30.00) – I am on my second tube of this mascara, and as much as it pains me to pay $30 for a mascara, this stuff is worth the splurge.
  6. Physician’s Formula Organic Wear Mascara – I love that is mascara works, but all of the ingredients are gentle.
  7. Maybelline Volume Express Big Eyes Mascara – If you like to layer your mascaras, then this is the mascara for you!  The smaller brush defines, while the bigger brush adds drama.
  8. CoverGirl Clump Crusher Mascara – This mascara does what it says, you can layer as much on as you want without it clumping!
  9. Maybelline Volume Express The Falsies Flared Mascara – If you want big, fluttery lashes that flare on the edges, this is the mascara you need!
  10. butter LONDON Wink Mascara – Do you NEED a colored mascara?  Maybe not, but when you WANT one, you want one that is pigmented!  See just how pigmented it is here.
