When looking for your mascara match, don’t bother with the prettiest packaging or catchiest name – the secret to lust-worthy lashes is the wand. Here’s your cheat sheet.
If you want… a natural look
If your lashes are already long and you just want to add a natural-looking tint, you need a thin or sparse brush whose bristles will individually coat each of your lashes without clumping. TRY Estée Lauder Double Wear Mascara (R395).
If you want… volume
A thicker brush is great for adding plumpness and is ideal for short or skimpy lashes. Go for Essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara (R69.95). TIP! To create extra drama, apply multiple coats.
If you want… curl and length
Wave goodbye to your eyelash curler and hello to Rimmel Superculer Mascara (R103.95). Its curved bristles will add length and shape to dead-straight lashes.
