Mascara is the number one item you ask any female and she will answer she cannot part with it. She can have a complete bare face even on her way for a swim or lay out at the beach and she will still reach for mascara to complete the look. Since mascara should be discarded and replaced every three months, that makes it easy for me to test a variety of brands from drugstore finds to department store staples. A lot of tubes come and go in my vanity table but there is only one that has a permanent fix in there and no it is not Maybelline’s Great Lash mascara. My choice is often overlooked as it doesn’t get heavy press but the die hard NARS fan knows its a classic. Nars cosmetics are at the top of the beauty industry food chain. Top makeup artists choose Nars makeup and it’s a favorite among fashion magazine beauty editors, in the makeup bags of many Hollywood starlets, and the fashion world’s top models. If that kind of status doesn’t carry a little weight, I don’t know what does. Nars cosmetics are not simply a short term “hot beauty product”. It has staying power as a favored product line beyond trend, because it has delivered fabulous results in the most scrutinizing beauty circles. This mascara doesn’t have a fancy name and doesn’t tell what it does. It’s simply called Mascara by Nars Cosmetics. Comes in Black Orchid which is the inkiest black you will come across and Bamboo Brown for fair skinned ladies. I have both regular and waterproof formula for rainy and beach activity days. One swipe and your lashes are transformed into long and lush versions of false eyelash extensions. Zero smudges, flakes, clumps, and washes away at the end of the day with no tugging. Enough said!

Available at department stores $23.00
