Favourite Drugstore Mascaras – Marisa Chiorello

Hey there beautiful souls!

It’s no secret to the many people in my life, that I enjoy expressing myself through makeup. Your skin is an easel and your makeup is the paint. You can make beautiful creations with various makeup products! And, this is what I love the most!

Most of the time, I like to keep my makeup looks pretty simple, aside from using highlighters (Anastasia Beverly Hills is my go-to) and bold lipsticks or lip-gloss (Kylie Cosmetics, bareMinerals, Too Faced, MAC, and NYX are my go-tos).  My simple look really focuses on two main areas though. They are the lips and the eyes. Oh yes, it’s all about the eyes!

Unlike my highlighters, my lipsticks, and my lip-gloss, I do not necessarily splurge when it comes to my eye makeup. I typically only use mascara, because my eyes are very sensitive and eye shadow sometimes irritates them. So, the mascara I use can be found in your local drugstore! They are definitely priced reasonably! Over the past few months, I’ve tried a variety of different mascaras, and I’ve found some of my favourites! Here they are! Are you ready for ultimate length and volume? Your lashes will thank you!

My Favourite Drugstore Mascaras:

Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara, Waterproof Black, $5.47.  This mascara is perfect if you desire the fake lash look. The brush design really helps coat every single lash. The middle of the brush works to coat the middle of your lash line, and the bristles coat the inner and outer corners. People will question if you have eyelash extensions. This mascara made my eyelashes look incredible!

Rimmel Mascara

Maybelline Total Temptation Mascara, $8.99. This mascara is the one if you’re craving extreme volume! Each lash gets coated with Maybelline’s fomula that is infused with coconut extract, without getting clumpy. You’ll also be able to notice ideal separation between your lashes. If you’re craving length for your lashes, I noticed that this mascara added volume and length to my lashes! They felt so soft, too.

Total Temptation Mascara

Maybelline Lash Sensational Luscious Mascara Blackest Black, $6.49.  You’ll love this mascara if you’re into the fanning effect! I found that this mascara not only added volume to my lashes, but it layered my lashes! My lashes looked much fuller and healthier, and that could be because Maybelline’s formula is infused with oils!

Lash Sensational

Wet N Wild Max Volume Plus Mascara Amp’d Black, $3.49. Talk about extreme volume, this mascara really delivers! In fact, you’ll see 10X more volume of your lashes when you use it! I love this mascara because not only does it give you extreme volume, it also separates and extends your lashes. When I used it, my lashes did not clump, stick together, or smudge. This was my go-to mascara for a long time.

Wet N Wild Max Volume

Wet N Wild Mega Volume Mascara, $2.99. I’m currently using this mascara, and… wow! I definitely see a difference in my lashes from using this mascara. It gives my lashes just the right amount of volume (they almost look fake), my lashes are fuller, and it separates each lash. I see a massive difference in the length of my lashes as well. Not only that, but with this mascara, my lashes are protected. With each coat of this mascara, I am adding Vitamin E onto my lashes which softens them, moistures them, and protects them. I also love this mascara because it is waterproof, sweat-proof, humidity-resistant, and smudge-resistant- so I can wear it in any type of weather. Most importantly, it’s cruelty-free and gluten-free.

Mega Volume

If you’re on the hunt for voluminous, thicker, fuller, and longer lashes try one of my favourites! Let me know what you think!

Until next time,

Marisa
