16 conditioning mascaras that strengthen and protect your lashes
Marc Jacobs Beauty At Lash’d Lifting & Volumizing Mascara, $44
image

Best for: Sparse, short, and fine lashes

Lash care ingredient: Biotin Peptide, Provitamin B5 and vegan plant waxes

Our review: Want longer and fuller lashes? This product will do the job. The vegan mascara is enriched with lash conditioners Biotin Peptide and Provitamin B5 to create length and curl and nourish the lashes. The lightweight formula is also smudge-resistant and does not flake easily.

Jill Stuart Blooming Blossom Curl Lash Mascara, $43
image

Best for: Droopy lashes

Lash care ingredient: Pearl extract, rosemary extract, lavender oil and avocado oil

Our review: This mascara not only gives your lashes an instant lift, it is also formulated with pearl extract to repair your lashes and keep them healthy. Softening wax also helps to create an ultra-light texture that is gentle on the lashes, coating them smoothly and evenly.

Laura Mercier Caviar Volume Panoramic Mascara, $36
image

Best for: Sparse, thin lashes

Lash care ingredient: Caviar Care Complex

Our review: For a dramatic look, use Laura Mercier’s Caviar Volume Panoramic Mascara to get lashes with intense volume. The thickening mascara is formulated with the brand’s signature nourishing Caviar Care Complex, which protects and hydrates lashes for long lasting wear.

Givenchy Phenomen'Eyes Mascara, $54
image

Best for: Those who struggle with clumpy lashes

Lash care ingredient: Hydrating Polysaccharide

Our review: You’re probably wondering why this mascara wand looks different from the regular wands you use. Well, the brush is made specifically for those who struggle with lashes that clump together as it helps to catch the lashes from the root and separate them for a thicker and more voluminous look.

Bonus: this lengthening mascara is also smudge-proof and has a comfortable formula that lasts all day – no touch-ups required.

Hourglass Caution Extreme Lash Mascara, $46
image

Best for: Getting a dramatic curve without having to use an eyelash curler.

Lash care ingredient: Palmitic acid

Our review: What we really love about this mascara is the lift that it gives.

You don’t need too much curling before because the brush really grips the lashes at the roots and lifts them.

With just one coat, the ultra-black formula is able to lengthen thin, light lashes.

Bema Nature Up Voluminous Black Mascara, $44
image

Best for: Sensitive eyes

Lash care ingredient: Avocado oil

Our review: The thick, densely bristled brushes add amazing volume to your lashes.

Once it sets, it does not budge, leaving you with a defined finish. The formula is also free of nasties and feels comfortable on the lashes and doesn’t irritate the eye area.

YSL Beaute Mascara Vinyl Couture, $55
image

Best for: Voluminous lashes fast

Lash care ingredient: Lauroyl lysine

Our review: Want beautifully voluminous lashes in a rush? The YSL Beaute Mascara Vinyl Couture does just that with its ultra-concentrated black pigment and tapered bristled brush that creates instant length and volume without transferring to the under eye area.

Lancome Grandiôse Waterproof Mascara, $50
image

Best for: Short, stumpy lashes

Lash care ingredient: Rose-cell extract so that lashes remain soft and supple.

Our review: This has a liquidy formula that coats lashes easily and doesn’t feel clumpy. It has less wax so it doesn’t flake even with 3 coats. Available at Lancome counters and stores.

Urban Decay Trouble Maker Mascara, $38
image

Best for: Scant, short lashes

Lash care ingredients: Vitamin E and panthenol

Our review: Silica and ultra-light fibers boost volume weightlessly while vitamin E and panthenol nourish and condition every strand to boost growth. It glides onto lashes and gives them instant oomph that lasts all day without flaking or smudging too. Available at Urban Decay counters and stores.

Perricone MD No Mascara Mascara, $52
image

Best for: Droopy, sparse lashes

Lash care ingredients: Neuropeptides and biotin

Our review: Gives lashes natural-looking definition with one coat and the advanced formula is clinically proven to make lashes look fuller and more lifted with a curl that holds all day. Available from www.8apothecary.com.

Eyeko Black Magic Lash Boost, $40
image

Best for: Thin, stumpy lashes

Lash care ingredients: Pro-vitamin B5 and blackberry extract

Our review: The brush applicator coats lashes effortlessly and the formula even has tiny extensions made of plant fibres for instant lengthening. The lash care ingredients condition lashes to make them fuller in time. Available at Sephora.

It Cosmetics Hello Lashes 5-in-1 Mascara, $42
image

Best for: Weak lashes that break easily

Lash care ingredients: Beeswax and jojoba oil

Our review: Coats lashes with intense colour pigments but also leaves them feeling nourished and conditioned. After two weeks of use, it lessened breakage when we rubbed our eyes.

Tarte Gifted™ Amazonian Clay Smart Mascara (Limited Edition), $33
image

Best for: Sparse, short lashes

Lash care ingredients: Amazonian clay and vitamin C

Our review: Give lashes instant fullness thanks to the slightly thicker consistency of the formula. However lashes remain soft and fluttery all day. Available at Sephora.

The Balm What’s Your Type? Tall, Dark and Handsome mascara, $37.90
image

Best for: Dry, brittle lashes

Lash care ingredients: Panthenol, olive wax and rice extracts

Our review: Clump-free and fuller, this mascara transforms lashes instantly while its lash-loving formula nourishes and softens lashes making each strand stronger and thicker. Available at Sephora.

Peter Thomas Roth Lashes To Die For The Mascara, $51
image

Best for: Brittle, breakable lashes

Lash care ingredients: Macadamia nut oil, vitamin B5 and bamboo extract

Our review: The lash nourishing and softening ingredients made lashes feel soft and hydrated so they’re more resilient. The formula also makes lashes look naturally long and defined. Available at Sephora.

Nudestix Mascara Lash & Grow, $37
image

Best for: Scanty lashes

Lash care ingredient: Peptides

Our review: This smudge-free, flexible coat mascara is souped up with peptides, an ingredient mostly used in anti-ageing skincare to rebuild and regenerate skin. On lashes, it reportedly boosts growth so that it’s longer and more fluttery. Available at Sephora.
