Hey there beauty!!
A few months ago I tested out a BUNCH of mascaras from Target and shared them via Instagram stories, but I wanted to share them again here so you can always refer back to this post! Of course, I’m not telling you that you need every single mascara I share (lol!), but I love trying new products and sharing my feedback on them in case you are curious about a brand or specific item. I know everyone’s lashes are different and we all don’t like the same “look” when it comes to mascara and makeup, so I made sure to include a variety that are good for more natural looking lashes and for the mascara junkies (like me) who want the most full and voluminous lashes ever haha!! ๐ Anywho, here are my faves!!
Ok, so I ALWAYS use a primer before my mascara, and I swear it makes a huge difference. Like actually life changing..I know a little dramatic, but it’s true!!! I’ve been using THIS one for a few years now, and it is so freaking good. If you haven’t tried using a primer, I highly recommend trying one – and this one is only $10! ๐
Now, let’s get into mascaras. THIS one has been my go-to one for years now! I grabbed it one day when I started using the primer and was like OKAYY. The primer and this mascara IS IT. When shopping for mascaras, I tend to pick the ones that say voluminous lashes or full lashes or lengthens. This mascara does all of those things for my lashes and dang do they look good! FYI – one thing to note with this mascara, it is a bit thicker compared to others, so you will need to replace it more frequently, or at least that’s been my experience with it. This one is also only $10! I would definitely try this one and the primer together for starters to see if you like the look of full voluminous lashes like muah ๐ PS it sometimes comes in a pack with the primer at Target!
Ok soooo I received THIS one in a PR package and WOW! The hype is real with this mascara. It definitely gives you full, voluminous lashes! And, I love this one because you don’t need to apply multiple layers to get full lashes. After a few swipes your lashes will be looking amazing!! Also, the applicator is perfect – not too much product comes off and it evenly disperses throughout your lashes…it’s the little things like mascara applicators that make me so happy haha!
THIS one was a recommendation from my best friend, Bridget. Anything she recommends I always end up loving!!! This one gives you MAJOR length. The applicator is more of a silicon style brush so more product comes off, but if you use it with one like the Air Volume, whewww your lashes will be long and full! I think it still looks gorgeous with just a few layers of this, but if you’ve known me for awhile, you know I love layering different mascaras, and I feel like that’s how I achieve the best look ๐
Most of my favorites are from L’Orรฉal, so I of course had to give THIS one a try ๐ And, I LOVE it! I’m currently using this one along with the Telescopic (below). The applicator on this one is amazing because it doesn’t give off too much product and it helps separate your lashes while giving them nice length and volume. If you like a more natural mascara look, this one would be perfect for you! It’s also really buildable, so you can definitely do multiple layers to achieve a more full and voluminous look, if preferred ๐
Ok, this one is SO good! I love to use THIS one as a base (after primer) and then layer with the Bambi Eye (above). The applicator on this one definitely gives off a lot of product which is why I prefer to layer it with another one, but the length and fullness it gives my lashes is unreal!! BUT, if you like a more natural look and don’t tend to layer mascara, this one is great for initial length and volume! You know me, I just love to layer it all on haha! I Highly, highly recommend trying this one out ๐
I hope this was helpful if you’re looking to try out a new affordable mascara. And like I said in the beginning of this post, definitely try the primer if you haven’t! It is a total “game changer” ๐
