7 Of Our Favourite Affordable Mascaras

Plenty of high-street mascaras can stand up to their more expensive counterparts these days. From volumisers to those that lengthen, we’ve put together a list of seven that won’t set you back more than £15.

All products on this page have been selected by our editorial team, however we may make commission on some products.

BEST WATERPROOF OPTION

Lash Surge Mascara Waterproof, £5.99 | Collection

Prone to watery eyes or simply need a product that won’t budge? This waterproof mascara comes with a soft and luxurious dual brush to get right into the lash line and outermost hairs to emphasise that fanned-out and sultry look – often something only achieved with individual falsies.

Available at Superdrug.com


BEST CURLING MASCARA

Lash 'N Roll Mascara, £6 | E.l.f 

If you struggle with straight or short lashes, this will be game changing. With a curved wand and a richly pigmented formula, it uses a double-sided and silicone brush to separate, lift and curl even the smallest of lashes. Smudge and flake resistant, and with a vegan formula, it’s one that’ll work whatever the occasion.

BEST FOR VOLUMISING

Paris Volume Million Lashes Mascara, £11.99 | L’Oreal

For the ultimate feathered, dramatic lash, make this your go-to. Combatting clumps with its clever combination of long and short bristles, it deposits just the right amount of product to deliver a bold effect. Plus, the slightly more detailed tip is perfect for catching those outermost lashes for fanned, wide-eyed finish.

BEST EVERYDAY CHOICE

Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara, £11.99 | Maybelline

Maybelline is known for making great, affordable mascaras – and this one is a favourite among the SL team. Working to thicken and lengthen lashes in just one coat, the flexible wand picks up even the tiniest lashes at the inner and outer corners for a full, fluttery look. In addition, the formula contains bamboo extract to condition and hydrate lashes over time.

BEST FOR THICKER LASHES

Big Lash Volume Mascara, £4.99 | Revolution

This is one of the best mascaras you can get for less than £5. Equipped with an ultra large wand – perfect for those blessed with longer, thicker lashes – the formula is quick-drying, so there are no pesky smudges come 4pm.

BEST LONGWEAR FORMULA

Glameyes Day 2 Night Mascara, £7.99 | Rimmel London

Smaller, finer fibres help this mascara seamlessly coat the lashes in a natural but impactful way. Adding both volume and length, the ultra-black shade will quickly make it an evening favourite. Just use a lighter hand to make it work for the daytime, too.

BEST TWO-IN-ONE PRODUCT

Masterpiece Lash WOW Mascara, £8.90 | Max Factor

With an easy-twist function, this two-in-one mascara works to lengthen and add volume at the same time. Flake-proof and with a vegan formula, it glides on with ease, coating lashes right down to the lash line for the most flawless finish. Plus, it’s ophthalmologically tested – making it great for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.
