40 Gifts For Almost Everyone — And I Mean Almost Everyone

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Jasmin Sandal (that’s her above!) says, “I don’t think I ever knew the true meaning of wide awake eyes until I armed myself with this mascara from Stila. Let’s just start with the look and feel of it: it comes in a weighty gold tube — so you already know you’re about to experience something special — and the applicator is curved in the center with just the right amount of product on it. Clearly from my experience, you can tell the obvious difference between the with and without — and, tbh, the ‘without’ has been my general M.O. during these recent times. But that has all changed thanks to this lash extension in a tube! Not only do my eyelashes appear thicker, but the length is just truly phenomenal. I feel like a brand-new, less-tired looking woman any time I apply a lick of this!

The product doesn’t clump my lashes together, either, and there are no flaky leftovers come the end of the day. Just a really great formula that coats each lash. So, if you’re anything like me and want to do the complete bare minimum with makeup, you’re going to want to have this in your beauty arsenal. It is the true definition of low effort, high *high* impact.”

Promising review: “Goes on smooth, gives a dramatic but still natural look. Love how it applies to all the lashes without clumping them all together. The black makes my blue eyes pop. Overall love this product. I have been trying a few different mascaras that aren’t drug store brands to see if there was a difference and if they work, they the extra price. So far, this one is. As far as I can tell, it’s relatively waterproof (been doing a lot of crying recently, and the mascara has held up.)” —Realitybug
