Mascara: Our Favorite Magic Wands

I've been on a mission the past few months to find a new mascara. My usual go-to Sephora brand wasn't living up to its past glory and the constant make up under my eyes was making me look tired.  I asked Megan what her go-to brands were and decided to try out several to decide for myself.

Finding The Perfect Mascara

After trying out different brands (both prestige and over-the-counter), here are my final results:

BLINK:
LOVE-The natural look and that no make up remover is required--wash the tubes away with water.
NO LOVE- If you wear contacts, this may not be the best for you. Several times I got a flake in my eye during application or wear that wouldn't budge.

TARTE:
LOVE- Natural formula and thick lashes
NO LOVE- Quickly dries out and flakes after long wear

LANCOME HYPNOSE DRAMA:
LOVE- Natural look and no flaking
NO LOVE- Requires a good make up remover

Our Top Mascara Picks

Results, I'm sticking with the BLINK for travel and on the go and Lancome for every day. Everyone has unique lashes and what they desire from a good mascara. I personally like a more natural look. We recommend trying a few out to start and going from there. Sephora Favorites Lashstash to Go is perfect for this. It's a cost effective experiment too, in that you get a coupon to purchase your winning mascara in a full size later. 

Stay Stylish,
K
