19 February marks National Lash Day and we are more than excited for it. This is a day for acknowledging all types of eyelashes, real or false, and to promote the importance of lash health. As the anatomical feature that keeps the eye safe while enhancing our look, it’s safe to say eyelashes can sometimes be swept under the rug.

There’s no better feeling than finding a go-to mascara that works perfectly with your lashes… other than seeing your lashes grow thicker and fuller over time. To celebrate the occasion, we’re helping you upgrade your lash routine and health with the best mascaras and treatments for the job. Ahead are the volumizing virtuosos, lengthening sensations, and nourishing saviors you need, plus bonus picks to complement your lash look and complete your makeup routine. Scroll to get started.
