I have to take the time to think about what has happened to me because it’s so huge.”He continued: “I don’t know how this happened.
Bargain mascaras that fake the look of extensions and lash lifts from £4
30.04.2023 - 08:49 / ok.co.uk
If there's one make-up product we buy on repeat above everything else, it's mascara. Not only is it a "can't step out of the house without it" essential for so many of us, it's also something that very, very quickly gets past its best. You might be able to get away with having eyeshadow palettes older than your kids (no judgement), but you can guarantee that even the best mascaras wil be drying up within a few months of first unscrewing the tube.
With that in mind, nothing makes us happier than being able to hunt down the best bargain mascaras to add to your basket. We're talking less cash, more lash: the magic wands that cheat the look of everything from salon extensions to a lash lift, and still leave you with change from £15.

Maybelline The Falsies Surreal Mascara, £11.99 here If it’s got Maybelline on the tube, you know it’s destined to go viral.This time, the brand is following up its mega-selling Sky
