In a recent survey of over 3,300 women, Good Housekeeping found that about 73% of women use mascara every day. Relying on such a staple in your makeup routine means you’ll want to have a do-it-all mascara that volumizes, curls, lengthens and separates for high-impact lashes in one step.
BEST OVERALL MASCARA
- Top Lab scores for separating lashes without clumps
- Makes lashes look natural, long and feathered
- Buildable formula
Testers praised Maybelline’s Total Temptation for separating lashes, not clumping and creating a natural, subtle look that’s perfect for everyday wear. The large brush has a bit of a learning curve, but offers smooth application that remains clump-free throughout multiple coats.
One user said, “It made my eyelashes look thick and lush and it was super buildable.” You’ll just need one coat for long, separated lashes, but two to three coats delivers volumized lashes “with virtually no smearing … even as the day goes on (and during yoga class!).”
- Budget-friendly
- Top Lab scores for creating definition and curl without clumps
- Curved brush with plastic bristles is easy to use
This affordable pick beat out all the other products because of its great definition and curl without clumping. The wand is curved to mimic the shape of your eye and since the bristles are packed tightly together, clumps never have the chance to form between.
Even after 60 strokes, lashes didn’t clump (but did look lush, full and glam).
