Looking for the “right”, perfect mascara? Elena Krygina, Yuri Stolyarov, Olga Romanova and other leading makeup artists share their findings - their choice will not let you down!
Choice of makeup artist Elena Krygina:
High Impact Mascara, Clinique
“This is a super mascara that was a discovery for me. Versatile, suitable for allergy sufferers, easy to rinse off, does not sting the eyes, does not leave dark circles, does not crumble, gives enough volume and color. Perfect for everyday make-up."
The choice of makeup artist Andrey Shilkov:
Volume Effet Faux Cils Shocking, Yves Saint Laurent
“When people ask me what kind of mascara I could recommend, this one comes to mind one of the first. I have been using it for a long time, because it is she who gives the fantastic effect of false eyelashes and luxurious volume."
Choice of makeup artist Alexandra Kirienko:
Cabaret, Vivienne Sabo
“In my case, this is one of the inexpensive and favorite products. I love mascara because it is very flexible. I buy 5-6 pieces at once. It lengthens the eyelashes and gives them volume."
Choice of makeup artist Yuri Stolyarov:
Great Lash Blackest Black, Maybelline New York
“Legendary mascara, loved by many makeup artists, you will definitely see it at fashion shows. What's the secret? It's just mascara and nothing else. Often we need just such an effect - natural eyelashes, well colored, without excess volume and lengthening. For such purposes, there is nothing better than this classic remedy. By the way, you can buy different brushes and experiment with this mascara."
Choice of makeup artist Olga Romanova:
Delight Circle Lens, Tony Moly
“I discovered this tool recently and completely by accident. Mascara with a light curling effect, comfortable brush, good balance between thick and lengthened. And what is most important for me - it does not crumble. Also, this mascara can be easily removed with a "straw" - in this matter, Asian products are more convenient than others. When you wash off the mascara, it does not rub over the eye, but simply rolls off under the influence of warm water."
Choice of makeup artist Anna Merkusheva:
Excessive Flash and Smoky Extravagant, Make Up For Ever
“I have two indispensable Make Up For Ever brushes: the hard and short Excessive Flash mascara brush for the roots (I paint over them in zigzag movements to preserve the maximum amount of mascara). I paint the ends with a brush of Smoky Extravagant mascara, "pulling movements" (creates a "panoramic" volumetric effect) ".
The choice of makeup artist Ekaterina Ponomareva:
Upward Lash, M. A. C
“I use this mascara for a beautiful curl and thick lash effect. A brush paints over every eyelash, and carnauba wax in the mascara envelops them with an elastic film - it is responsible for volume."
The choice of makeup artist Ernest Muntaniol
Le Volume, Chanel
“Perfectly layering - when you need to renew your makeup after 6 hours, you don't have to wash off the mascara. If I need to slightly emphasize the lashes, I apply in one layer. If you need to make them very expressive - in several.
Delicately works with each type of eyelash - if it is long and liquid, it will not make three sticks sticking together from them, but will gently separate and give volume.
When it was presented two years ago, we had a session for journalists - everyone was testing ink. Applied to only one eye to show the difference. My task was to distribute the mascara with the exact brush that Le Volume has, not with a brush. About 22 people passed the test, everyone has different eyelashes, but the product worked for everyone. I also like it when the mascara dries up a little - a week or two after the start of use."
Choice of makeup artist Alena Moiseeva:
Lash Sensational, Maybelline New York
“I love the plastic comb-shaped brushes - they stretch the product very thinly towards the edge of the lashes. It lays down in a thick layer at the base of the eyelashes, and only a little remains at the tips - without the effect of "spider legs".
