This Brilliant Makeup Product Is Basically Eyelash Extensions In A Tube

by Rebecca Norris

If you're looking to achieve longer, fuller lashes without the hassle of wearing false eyelashes, then you've come to the right place. Unlike traditional mascaras, the best 3-D fiber lash mascaras can boost the length and volume of your lashes to give you the seriously-amplified look of eyelash extensions.

However, even though fiber lash mascara is a low-maintenance alternative to wearing false eyelashes, it can be slightly more labor intensive than your average mascara. That being said, the results are certainly worth the extra effort. The most common fiber mascaras feature two products: a gel that primes your lashes and fibers that adhere to your lashes to add volume and length. The application process varies depending on the individual fiber lash mascara, but it often involves multiple steps that, once finished, will give you longer, fuller-looking lashes.

Don't be fooled by the branding, though — not all fiber mascaras are created equal, and when searching for one to add to your eye makeup regimen, you want to be sure that you choose a non-irritating formula that won't smudge or flake mid-day.

From a one-step mascara for the fastest application to an ophthalmologist-tested duo safe for sensitive eyes, this roundup of the best 3-D fiber mascaras is sure to have the right one for you.

01A Fiber Lash Duo That Nourishes Your Lashes

This two-part 3-D fiber lash mascara system features a three-step application process that not only lengthens your lashes but nourishes them, too. Designed with collagen transplanting gel and all natural green tea fibers, these lash products, when used together, not only add to the appearance of your length and volume but nourish lashes deep down. And its water-resistant formula won't smudge or run, even if you wear it for the entire day. You can pair this system with your favorite black or colored mascara for an extra pop of color to accentuate your new length.

02The Hypoallergenic Fiber Lash Mascara For Sensitive Eyes

If your eyes get teary when you put on makeup, or act out when you apply products on your lashes, this fiber lash duo from Physicians Formula is perfect for you. Hypoallergenic and free of parabens, this formula was designed to be safe on even the most sensitive eyes. In fact, it's even been tested by ophthalmologists and approved by dermatologists for safe use on your eyelashes. And at just $11, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better deal on longer and more luscious lashes.

03The One-Step Fiber Mascara For Those Who Are A Little Impatient

While most 3-D fiber lash mascaras feature a duo to create the magnified appearance, this single product from Lash Factory switches things up and does the same thing all on its own. Designed to instantly define and lengthen lashes, this one-step product can enhance lashes up to 300 percent in a single stroke. The long-wear formula makes for an enhanced lash look that won't smudge or fade as the day goes on, ensuring you are selfie ready no matter what the day has in store for you.

04An Organic 3-D Lash Mascara That Comes With A Growth-Enhancing Mascara, Too

Comprised of three lash-enhancing products, this 3-D lash mascara features a black mascara gel base, natural green tea fibers, and a tube of nourishing black lash growth serum mascara that, in and of itself, will enhance the appearance of your lashes. Certified organic, this trio is made with only the best ingredients to offer a natural, hypoallergenic approach to longer lashes. All three tubes fit nicely into a sleek carrying-case, making on-the-go touch-ups easier than ever — though, with a long-lasting formula that promises smudge-proof wear, it likely won't be necessary.
