It's Summer time! Although the weather has been questionable, now is the time to add a little colour to your wardrobe. Stuck on wearing black? No probs! Why not add a little colour to your makeup routine?
This season, coloured mascaras have been trending throughout retailers everywhere. I have always enjoyed a good blue mascara, but now it seems that the possibilities are endless. I want to move away from the idea that coloured mascaras are only for 'young people'. Newsflash! Coloured mascaras can be very subtle; a great alternative to flashy coloured eyeshadows.
"Will it even show?" Is a question I get asked on the regular. The key to allowing your mascara to stand out is by first applying a primer. My personal favourite? Lancôme CILS BOOSTER XL Super-Enhancing Mascara Base. Check it out here.
Moving right along, I'm now going to share a few of my personal favourite coloured mascaras hot on the market today. Enjoy!

Lancôme GRANDIÔSE - Wide-Angle Fan Effect Mascara
What?
A first-of-its-kind mascara that provides access to all lashes for bigger, brighter eyes. *Available in five shades.
Why?
This revolutionary, Swan Neck Wand Mascara provides exceptional length, lift, and volume to all lashes. It features Lancôme's first patented wand, which works with the shape of your face for the easiest application, and the curve of the wand mixes the mascara with each twist open, allowing for formula that stays fresh longer. The specially designed, elastomer-molded brush perfectly deposits formula on each lash, while smaller bristles effortlessly coat even short lashes from root to tip for ultimate volume. The smudge-free formula features Lancôme’s rose cell extract, which nourishes and smooths lashes while providing infinite buildability. This high-gloss, clump-free mascara leaves lashes fanned out with maximum length, and it is designed with long-wearing, flexible polymers, which allow for easy removal.
