Are you in need of a mascara that is going to lengthen your natural lashes, but with such a saturated market you’re not quite sure which to buy? Well, you’re in the right place – here is a round up of five of the best lengthening mascaras on the market right now!
First things first, when choosing the perfect mascara, it’s important to identify what you’re looking for is it lengthening, volumizing or both?
The best mascaras for that luscious long lash that isn’t so clumpy it resembled a spider’s leg. A long lash is fantastic for opening the eyes up and making your eyes pop. The ideal lash for a clean, everyday makeup looks or for those who are looking for a break from lash extensions but still long for the long lash look.
L’Oréal Paris Telescopic Mascara
The L’Oréal Telescopic Mascara claims to give up to a 60% lash lengthening look with enhanced volume. Its fibre formula makes it a buildable, non-clumpy application with a thin wand that allows for extra-precise application
The Telescopic mascara coats your lashes superbly giving them an ultra-black covering to really emphasise your lashes. I opted for the ‘Carbon Black’ addition of this mascara, but it does come in several shade options. Carbon Black is the darkest of the range and if your looking for rich black pigment on your lashes then this one is for you.
A great everyday mascara to give your lashes some extra lift and intense black colour.
My lashes before applying any product look pretty much non-existent. They aren’t particularly short however they are very straight with minimal lift this formula is making my lashes stand out with its dark black coat
As the image (to follow) shows this mascara leaves your lashes ultra-black and bold. If you’re wanting to draw attention to your eyes this is a great mascara option!
Benefit Roller Lash Mascara
If you’re looking for a mascara that will consistently leave your eyelashes looking their best then the Benefit’s Roller Lash Mascara will never let you down! It’s an absolute bona fide classic. Benefit have brought out multiple amazing lash products over time, but roller lash has to be our favourite mascaras for lengthening lashes. No need to use an eyelash curler, this mascara will give you eyelashes that lifting affect and create fluttery lashes that hold all day.
I also have to mention its beautiful packaging that always draws me to Benefit products. Its pink lid with sleek black body is iconic to the product and instantly recognisable. Of course, I’m not here to rate the mascara packaging but something that looks just as good as it performs is always a plus.
Benefit is a brand you can trust when it comes to mascaras. They roll out incredible products repeatedly and Roller Lash is no exception. I can almost guarantee you will buy this mascara once and never look back. It’s sure to be a staple in your makeup bag for years to come.
The before and after images (to follow) speak for themselves. My barely visible lashes are uplifted. The thin bristles and curved wand are magnificent for coating every lash and giving that curled lash affect this product promises.
Rimmel Wonder’Extension Mascara
If you’re looking for a super-affordable lash product that gives the same incredible lash lengthening as some of its higher end rivals, then the Wonder’Extension Mascara is one you must try. The length that this mascara gives opens the eyes and leaves them looking brighter and bolder.
An easily buildable formula that doesn’t end up clumpy. Applying two layers of this mascara will have your eyes looking wider and your lashes looking twice as lifted!
Its tapered wand makes for an easy application that can even reach the corner lashes for a full, defined lash look that draws the length of your lashes out.
A steal at only £9.99, this is a super option if you’re looking for a budget-friendly mascara that delivers good lash length. We 100% recommend giving this Rimmel mascara a go for a lengthening, smudge-proof and flake-proof formula that doesn’t break the bank.
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky-High Mascara
This Maybelline mascara does exactly as it states, lifts your lashes to sky-high lengths. You’ve probably seen this one doing the rounds on social media and after trying it out ourselves its evident why. It claims to deliver a limitless length and even volumizing powers. This bold statement had us itching to give it a go and we have to admit we weren’t disappointed.
This mascara claims to be both volumizing and lengthening but it definitely delivers more on its lengthening ability, mustering up length I didn’t even know my lashes could reach! It’s flexible wand bends to cover every lash, leaving them lusciously long and separated in a fan effect. The thin bristles make it super easy to reach every lash from the end to the inner of your lash line, really helping to open the eye.
It’s waterproof formula is just as incredible as its lash lengthening ability. I can wear this mascara all day in rain or shine and still have it looking as good as when it was first applied. No smudging, no flaking, just lusciously long lashes all day.
Urban Decay Perversion Mascara
Urban Decay is a brand with a vision and its manifesto of igniting individuality is always perfectly translated to the products they produce.
Here they give us a mascara that offers much more than the norm. This extremely intense, triple-black mascara coats the lashes in a deep coal-black pigment that elongates and volumizes your lashes. Not only does it work like magic, but this mascara gets lengthening lashes from just one application. Its formula is filled with a nourishing blend of ingredients designed to really help your lashes grow longer.
This mascara is the ultimate option for those who have previously relied on eyelash extensions and now want to repair their natural lashes to a healthy state. Its wand is packed with bristles to ensures no lash is missed when applying. Start from the tip of your lashes and brush upwards to create fanned out, lengthened lashes.
Urban Decay only manufactures 100% cruelty free and Vegan products so if you’re looking for an incredible product AND are conscious about the ethics of the production process then I would highly recommend giving this mascara a try!
