Beauty Essential: My Must-Have Mascara

Aug 3, 2011 at 12:00pm by Lauren Conrad

My favorite mascara is a bargain at just around $7. Maybelline Full "�N Soft Mascara is the best one I've found to date. I use both regular and waterproof depending on the occasion. It gives volume without clumping and it lasts until the tube is empty (unlike other brands that often dry up in just a few weeks). If you're on the hunt for the perfect product to gloss your lashes with, I highly recommend giving Full N' Soft a go!

What mascara do you use and why?

      They're Real by Benefit is hands down the best mascara I have ever used! You can also use Benefit's Bad Gal to layer it which makes them even more amazing!

      so true! i found full n' soft a year ago and no matter what mascara i try (no matter how nice the brand or hefty the price) I always return the full n'soft. It gives the perfect amount of definition, curl, length, and thickness so that my lashes look beautiful yet still natural!! I have already switched a number of my friends and family to this mascara they use it once and all they can say is "WOW!"....It's a genius mascara and I'll always use it!smiley-laughing.gif

      I just discovered Maybelline Strech&Define as my new favorite! It makes my lashes long and defined and the waterproof version lasts forever :)

      I use the Bad Gal mascara by benefit, I need a mascara that puts volume in it since mine are pretty thin and also very light because I'm a blonde, this one does exactly what I need :)

      I use Mac's Studio Fix b/c it lasts foreverrrrr!!! And the brush does a great job at separating my eyelashes. Although I do have to say that after reading this article, I went out this weekend and purchased the Full N Soft mascara and tried it this morning for the first time. I love how the brush gets every eyelash and it totally lives up to it's name... FULL and SOFT!! Thanks for sharing!
