My lash philosophy (in LE GLOSSIER land such a silly sounding thing is definitely acceptable) is
basically the bigger, the bolder, the better. I like my lashes long, curled and
thick. When you have a big bad lash look it can negate the need for any extra
work with eye shadows and liners – a time poor girls best friend. Thick black
lashes frame the eyes just perfectly make for a simple fluttery eye
look. Below I share my three absolute
all time favorite mascaras for fattening and flattering your lashes. Start
waving that wand!
1. MAC Haute and Naughty Lash $48 *
This pink and purple powerhouse will thicken lashes up with its super black formula in only a few short swipes. Seriously - in less than six seconds you have pretty satisfactory lashes. Spend a bit longer swiping and you will be very impressed with the thickening and lengthening properties of this bad boy. Perfect for a party lash or loaded onto lashes before falsies you can’t go wrong with the intensity of this mascara. If you do want to tone it down for a lazy day then you have the option of pulling out the pink section only and having soft fluffy lashes. Like I said I like mine long and thick so I only ever bother pulling out the purple part - where the wand goes through a wider wiper system for more deposit on your lashes. The pink end takes off more mascara and makes the brush slightly softer. For $48 you're really getting two in one and the best of both worlds.
2. YSL Baby Doll Mascara $64
If you like a little more definition with your lash length and thickness then the micro-faceted (this means that the brush, which is quite stiff and rubbery, has all different lengths of bristle to catch, separate and define your lashes) brush on this mascara is perfect for you. I love this mascara when I am after a big thick lash that is almost architectural in its line defined perfection. Cara Delevingne is the current face of this mascara, and lets face it with her fantastic face and feline eyes, we’ll take whatever she is having!

3. Maybelline Volume Express Falsies Flared Mascara $23.99
The best $24 you’ll ever spend at the supermarket will be spent on this incredible little purple tube of mascara magnificence. My ultimate favorite of the bunch (and alas, at a price you can’t really bat an eye at) it excels at all of the above while holding an impressive curl all day long. I can not fault this mascara, it doesn't smudge or smear but wears perfectly all day long. You get long thick loveliness in a flash. Make sure you get the “Flared” version of this mascara as the curved brush really helps lift and curl your lashes for a full, flared fringe of lashes and a gorgeous wide eyed look.
