These are the 9 best mascaras

The secret behind long lashes? I know it. A serum that I have been faithfully using every evening for a year now. But with just a serum, you're not really anywhere, of course. A swipe of mascara never hurts. And after a long search, I have found a handful of favorites. Variety is the key. Looking for a mascara that gives your lashes sky-high volume? From budget-friendly to a slightly higher price; these are the best.

1. Hema – XL Lashes Mascara
Yes, really: Hema. This mascara does what it promises: it makes your lashes extra large and pitch black. Thanks to the handy brush, the mascara catches every little hair. The best part? It only costs six euros.

2. Rimmel – Scandaleyes Mascara Lycra Flex Black
You only need one swipe. Saves you a lot of time in the morning.
€13,99

3. Charlotte Tilbury – Legendary Lashes
Kim K swears by it, this mascara gives your lashes a whopping 500% more volume. Hollywood lashes in five minutes, why wouldn't you want that?
€32

4. Benefit – They’re Real
This wax mascara doesn't dry out, doesn't flake, and stays on just a bit too well. So it does take you a bit more time in the evening to get the black layer off.
€24
5. Essence – Lash Princess False Lash Effect Black Mascara
This budget mascara is often sold out, and I understand why. I always have one of these in my bag. After two coats, your lashes are long, thick, and very black. And that for less than four euros. You want to.
€3,39

6. L’Oréal Paris – Mega Volume Miss Baby Roll Waterproof Mascara
The perfect mascara if you have to go through a rain shower. And yes, we do live in the Netherlands. I love the packaging alone, but especially the content works wonders. Full black lashes, without clumps and stuck together hairs.
€9,45

7. Maybelline – Great Lash Mascara
My very first mascara ever and I still occasionally toss it in my shopping cart. It remains a favorite, also a little bit because of the cozy retro look and the sweet memories of that rather awkward first kiss on the schoolyard...
€9,95

8. Yves Saint Laurent – Baby Doll Mascara
I bought it because of the packaging. Yes really, sorry. This delight fans out your lashes after just one swipe. Quality as we expect from YSL. And yes, that name, I have a weakness for that too.
€32

9. Lancôme – Hypnôse
Yes, definitely one of the best mascaras ever. One coat is nice, two is better, and three is sublime. No spider legs, clumps, or other nonsense.
Just love.
