I obsess over finding the perfect mascara and wanted to share my picks for best mascaras of all time. Check out all 12 brands!If there’s one beauty product we rely on to keep our faces in check, it’s without a doubt mascara. That all-important flick frames your face, pulling together your entire look in a few strokes.  It can make you look more awake on a Monday than you actually are. I know besides myself, there are a few of you who have multiple tubes in your bathroom, purse, gym bag, car, kitchen counter, oh wait is that one just me? I’m just a girl looking for the best mascaras after all..

I obsess over finding the perfect mascara and then when I do, I still end up going back on that quest. It’s like finding that perfect pair of shoes or chai tea. Well for me maybe.

The search for the best mascara is a feat in itself, not to mention the search for the best cruelty-free mascara, which is why I get excited when I find those guilt-free formulas that claimed to lengthen, condition, darken, curl, and add volume to lashes just like our old standbys.

We all search high and low for the absolute best mascaras that lift and plump our lashes all while making us look like a Disney princess in real life. You know those big eyes and loonnnng lashes! When we choose a tube of mascara, we mean business. I want to know that this formula works and I’m not wasting my money. Am I right?

Check out all 12 best mascaras below and 15 of the Best Foundations.

My List of Best Mascaras of All Time

1. YSL The Shock Volumizing Mascara

I obsess over finding the perfect mascara and wanted to share my picks for best mascaras of all time. Check out all 12 brands!
Why we love it: 
If you want darker, thicker lashes—this will be your new holy grail of mascaras. The inky black formula can get a little clumpy on its pursuit to volume (in a good way), but be warned if you like your lashes on the straight and narrow instead.

YSL The Shock Volumizing Mascara, $29, sephora.com.

2. Urban Decay Perversion

Why we love it:
Though the name suggests something dramatic, the effect this mascara leaves is more soft and fluttery than all-out bombshell. But you can layer on more than one coat to reach perversion-level volume.

Urban Decay Perversion, $22, sephora.com.

3. Clinique Chubby Lash Fattening Mascara

I obsess over finding the perfect mascara and wanted to share my picks for best mascaras of all time. Check out all 12 brands!
Why we love it:
Once you get over the novelty of the funny name and extra-fat brush, you’ll find that the formula inside sharply defines and fans each lash. One coat leaves behind a tint of color, while two, three, or four coats creates lashes begging to be seen.

4. Lancôme DÉFINICILS High Definition Mascara

Classics are classics for a reason. Devotees to DÉFINICILS swear by it for its natural lash-lengthening effect and impressive long-wear. But at the end of the day, it washes off at the first sight of soap.

10. Giorgio Armani Eccentrico Mascara

I obsess over finding the perfect mascara and wanted to share my picks for best mascaras of all time. Check out all 12 brands!Why we love it: I was recently introduced to this mascara and immediately fell in love. It’s got a nice big Velcro brush (so genius) that grabs on to every single lash and administers a thick inky formula that isn’t clumpy or sticky. My lashes look insanely long after just a coat or two. Con is that it’s really pricey.
