Mascara is an essential eye makeup product designed to define, lengthen, and enhance the appearance of eyelashes. By adding depth and emphasis to the eyes, mascara helps frame the face and complete both everyday and more dramatic makeup looks.
Modern mascaras are formulated to deliver visible results while remaining comfortable to wear, offering options that lengthen, volumise, curl, or separate lashes without excessive clumping.

What is Mascara?
Mascara is applied to the eyelashes to darken, thicken, lengthen, or curl them. It enhances the natural lash line, making the eyes appear more open and defined.
Available in a range of brush styles and formulas, mascara can be adapted to suit different lash types, preferences, and occasions.
