My Favorite Drugstore Mascaras

June 27, 2017

Hi guys!  I’m glad to see you back on the blog!  A couple months ago, I shared with you that I wanted to start doing more beauty-related blog posts so here I am today to share my favorite mascaras!  I think mascara is an important staple to any makeup routine, whether you go all out or just throw a few products on so let’s get started!

My absolute favorite mascara I’ve ever used is Benefit’s They’re Real! Lengthening mascara.  I wanted to try this for a long, long time before I actually made the purchase because it’s a pretty pricey mascara.  Before this, I had always used inexpensive mascara from the drugstore but I got a free little trial size when I bought a different Benefit product and that’s when I knew I needed to buy the full size as soon as possible.  It’s amazing!  It lengthens and thickens and looks great even when you wear it without eyeshadow or eyeliner.  Totally worth the money!

The next mascara that I’m going to share is Maybelline’s “The Rocket” mascara.  This was the mascara I was using for YEARS before I switched to the Benefit one, and it’s still the one I use when I don’t necessarily have the money to be spending a ton on higher end brands.  The mascara itself is very natural looking and doesn’t smudge but what drew me to this mascara in particular was the wand.  The wand has a lot of little bristles that spread and define your lashes and that makes all the difference!  Before using this mascara, I’d never used a wand like that and it’s incredible!

The last of my favorite mascaras is one from Pixi and it’s called the Lower Lash mascara.  I just came across this product recently and I can’t see myself getting rid of it any time soon!  Putting mascara on your bottom lashes is hard sometimes because the wand is so big and your lashes down there are so small and this mascara is the perfect remedy for that issue.  The wand is tiny so the mascara doesn’t clump and it’s just so cute!  I’d definitely recommend getting this product if you have the same issue I do with applying mascara to your bottom lashes.

I hope these recommendations helped you out if you’re on the hunt for a new mascara.  They’re my absolute favorite and I know you’ll love them too!  Have a great holiday and I’ll see you next Tuesday!
