Think of it like applying baby powder between coats of mascara — they add extra bulk and definition and really amp up the drama.
If you're interested in trying a fiber mascara, there are a couple of options. Many formulas come with fibers already mixed in — in fact, you may be surprised to see that quite a few of your favorite mascaras include fibers. Then, there are primers with fibers (or even just loose fibers) that you can pair with a regular mascara for fluttery results. Keep reading to check out a few of our favorite options.
