Mascara is one of the most important tools in a woman's beauty arsenal. It can make your eyes pop, add length and volume, and help you achieve the look you want. But not all mascaras are created equal. Some are better for thickening, others for lengthening, and still others for volumizing. Whatever you need, there is something for every need.

One thing - I still use the Clinique Undereye mascara for my lower lashes because I keep my under eyes really moisturized and my face physiology is such that when I smile, my bottom lashes touch my face, even though I powder after concealer, this mascara will create small grey marks after wearing for about 5 hours, so if I’m having a long day or else wise want to stay pristine, this stuff doesn’t go on my lower lashes. ...The Best of the Charlotte Tilbury Mascaras...This mascara is the exception.
