Let's face it: as we age, our lashes face their own set of challenges. They become thinner and more delicate, and let's not forget the dreaded smudging issue that can make us look more raccoon than ravishing. But fear not! After numerous trials, giggles, and a few eye winks, we've uncovered the top five
mascaras that stood out not just in our hearts but also on our lashes.
1. PrimeLash by Prime Prometics ($28)
This little gem from
Prime Prometics is
by far our top mascara recommendation! The standout feature has to be its wand. It's meticulously
designed to separate and coat each lash individually, ensuring a flawless application every single time.
No clumps, no mess, just beautifully defined lashes. It lasts all day and doesn't give you raccoon eyes, but it's still easy to wash off!
What we
really love is
PrimeLash is not just makeup; it's also a
nourishing treatment for your lashes. Packed with
conditioning agents and fortifying elements, it's
gentle on the most sensitive eyes. It’s formulated to strengthen lashes over time, and we noticed that our
lashes became thicker after a few months.
2. Extreme Length Mascara + Lash Primer by Honest ($19.99)
This
Honest Beauty mascara was an interesting surprise. One end is a lash primer, and the other is the mascara itself. It's like getting two products in one sleek package, but
we honestly didn't see much of a difference when we used the primer. The formula is tailored for sensitive eyes, so no irritation – a must-have as our eyes become more delicate with age. We love the formula, but the applicator is just ok... the bristles don't separate your lashes quite as well as
PrimeLash.
3. LiquidLash by Thrive Causemetics ($25)
This mascara is a standout product, especially for those with mature eyes who crave simplicity and gentleness in their beauty regimen. The formula provides incredible length and volume that withstands the challenges of the day –
no smudging or flaking. Yet, when it's time to say goodnight,
it can be really challenging to wash off.
4. Telescopic Original Mascara by L’Oreal ($11.99)

What really impressed us was how this mascara delivers
impressive length. Each application made our lashes look significantly longer, creating a youthful and captivating look. Plus, this is the cheapest option out of the bunch! It's a
great budget-friendly drugstore option for mature eyes.
The only downside is that some people find it difficult to put the applicator back in the tube, which can be frustrating. On the other hand,
PrimeLash has a super luxurious feel to its packaging, which is always a plus!
5. Pillow Talk Push-Up Lashes Mascara by Charlotte Tilbury ($29)
It’s impossible to write a list of mascaras without mentioning the cult favorite
Pillow Talk. The formula creates an eye-opening effect that instantly rejuvenates your entire look. The elegant packaging and the sumptuous formula make it a luxurious product for your makeup routine. We would say, though, this one is more for those days when you want to go for a
full-glam, more dramatic eye makeup look. Plus, we found that it dries out fairly quickly, so you might have to replace it after a month.
Why PrimeLash by Prime Prometics Takes the Crown
As our mascara journey comes to a close, it's clear that while each of the mascaras we tested has its unique charm, PrimeLash by Prime Prometics stands a lash above the rest.
The carefully crafted formula, brimming with ingredients that strengthen and condition, makes it more than just a cosmetic choice. So, if you’re looking for a mascara designed and formulated for mature, sensitive eyes, we recommend giving
PrimeLash a try. It's $28, but it's well worth the investment because we found that it can last up to 4-5 months!
