All eyes on coloured mascara

Seen on the runways from New York to Paris and at festivals like Coachella, coloured mascara is a makeup must-try.

We are seeing an array of hues grow in the market as consumers desire a more striking, yet easy to achieve, eye look. 

"Green mascara (+39% to LY), red mascara (+29% to LY) and pink mascara (+7% to LY) are emerging trends most saturated in the mass market," reported Trendalytics.

"A luxury market favourite, blue mascara is growing at accelerated rates with products in the market up +100% to last year."

So, without further ado, here are our top six picks for giving your lashes that little extra pop.
