We all want thick, lush lashes but not all of us have success finding the right mascara, especially those with sensitive eyes. It could be contact lenses or allergies or even the quality of the product itself, but if you are constantly having to wipe your eyes, or they burn and turn red with irritation, then you’re using the wrong mascara. Luckily there are many brands that are hypoallergenic and use organic or “natural” ingredients that may also be easier on the eyes.
