What color mascara do you usually use? Maybe brown, violet? pink? It sounds weird, but colored mascara is the easiest way to add a little fun to your everyday look. If you want a more refined look, use a formula from brands like Maybelline or Eyeko on your upper lashes with a quick swipe. For a little more drama, brush your top and bottom lashes with Benefit or L'Oreal Paris' mascara brush. Or, if you want your lashes to look like they've gone to Euphoria High, use Pat McGrath Labs' tinted mascara for dramatic results. In this article, we pick 9 of the best colored mascaras of all time for you.

Customer Review:

"Okay so first off the color is stunning. I have blue eyes and it is seriously the most beautiful mascara I’ve owned, I don’t ever want to go back to standard black mascara. I will say the first few applications were a little frustrating. I found it to be heavy and didn’t hold a curl at all, I wasn’t impressed. However, I tinkered with it and found that if I start at the tips of my eyelashes and kind of work my way backwards to the base of my lashes, almost combing as I go, it applied beautifully. And holds a curl, separated, and doesn’t smudge. I love it now that I know how to apply it the right way for me." -Kat Swan

Customer Review:

"This is the most perfect mascara and primer. I only wear mascara on my top lashes but I use the primer alone on the bottom for just a little soft color. The mascara goes on bright blue and then turns to a dark blue. With this duo I can get away with only wearing the primer/mascara, no eyeshadow or eyeliner needed. I’ve even been getting compliments on my eyes."
