I recently bought a brown mascara by mistake (too much pinot while late-night Amazon-ing, as one does). So I tried it, and you know what? Forget what you have heard: this stuff is *actually* great. It doesn’t look like you have mascara on—and honestly, that’s its sneaky appeal.
Think of brown vs black mascara like tinted moisturiser vs foundation.
The former is soft and fresh* like the ads you see with models sporting fresh, glowing skin, in the best woke-up-like-this way. It gives lashes just the right amount of oomph without being extra, and that’s especially clutch for days when I don’t want a full face of make-up (so basically every day in these times). And that’s the story. I am crowning brown mascara my beauty ‘discovery’—aka the thing, I knew existed but never knew was amazing.”
