This is a sponsored feature. All opinions are 100% from Her Campus. Of all the players in your beauty roster, mascara is the team captain. She’s the one who shows up to every game day, 8 a.m. class, and early-morning practice, and somehow makes it look effortless. No team is complete without its captain, and no beauty look — whether it’s full glam with a bold lip or clean and simple with glowy skin — is complete without statement-making lashes to pull it all together.
