Try: Julep Length Matters Buildable Lengthening Mascara, $20

P.S.A.: Julep (yes, the brand behind our favorite nail polishes and manis) has introduced a lengthening mascara that promises equally dreamy and durable results. The creamy formula coats fringe with beautiful and exaggerated length, mimicking even the most quality of lash extensions. The brush, constructed with tapered and tight bristles, promises even and precise application with every swipe. Perfect for layering, this mascara will easily take you from early-morning coffee runs to late-night drinks with the girls.

Try: L'Oreal Voluminous Butterfly Sculpt Mascara , $9

L'Oreal's iconic Voluminous mascara line has always had a cult following amongst celebrities, makeup artists and beauty junkies alike. However, the newest kid on the block -- its Butterfly Sculpt mascara -- might just be in a league of its own. No longer an industry top-secret, the formula embraces the idea of "tight-lining" -- lining and filling in lashes between (versus above) the roots. The effect is a makeup artist favorite, and immediately gives the appearance of a denser and darker lash line. The wand's compact and precise bristles do the work for you -- darkening and lengthening lashes at the base while creating a gorgeously long and fan-like appearance at the tips. Voila!

Try: CoverGirl The Super Sizer Fibers Mascara, $7

Another drugstore all-star, the latest and greatest fan-favorite by CoverGirl may just beat out its previously favored cousin, LashBlast. Specifically formulated to simulate the luxe look of extensions or falsies, the formula boasts a dramatic 400 percent increase in volume, while natural-looking fibers create enviable depth and length. Expert tip: Twist the wand while working through your lashes -- the technique pushes lashes sky-high creating an even longer and fan-like effect.

Try: Elizabeth Arden Grand Entrance Dramatic Volume Length and Lift Mascara, $24

Mega-cute packaging isn't all this formula has to offer (although we're always a sucker for aesthetically pleasing products). With as much as an 80 percent increase in curl, volume and, yes, superlong length, just one stroke of the ultra-precise wand delivers the latest and greatest technology to lashes that may be lacking in more than one department. Short and sparse? Fear not -- this one has you covered.

Try: Smashbox Indecent Exposure Mascara, $22

Is it just us or is it more fun to wear product that bears a suggestive, even downright scandalous name? With a hint of risky business, this lengthening mascara by Smashbox amps up the oomph with innovative fibers that naturally cling to lashes, delivering extreme length, density and sex appeal. (i.e., it's your best bet if you've been craving X-rated, never-before-seen length). Viewer discretion advised.
