'I've Tried Basically Every Mascara On The Market. These Are The Best Ones'

Let me just be upfront with you: I am not a beauty editor. I can't be trusted with liquid eyeliner, and I feel like a clown-toddler hybrid when I try on lipstick (I can't even say "wear," because I usually immediately wipe it off).

But there is one makeup product that I can't live without: mascara.

I have long eyelashes, but without mascara, you can't tell. That's why I can't live without the stuff; my lifeblood is eyelash compliments.

I'm very invested in those tubes of black goo - and I've tried more than I care to admit. Most are eh...if it does the job, I'll use it up and never buy it again; others, I'll toss after the initial coat. But these? These are the ones that I've used up, and then actually bought again (and again).
