Colored mascara is a huge trend right now, and lucky for us it looks amazing with red hair and should be in your redhead makeup kit. Most redheads have light blonde lashes, which means the pigment of colored mascara shows up bold and bright. Here are some of our favorite colored mascaras that work for redheads:
Finally Have Lashes
The mascara is designed for those with sensitivities and these are the specific redhead shades custom-made by H2BAR. Made without alcohol, gluten, GMO’s, oil, paragons, phthalates, silicones or talc. All H2BAR products are clean, cruelty-free, Leaping Bunny-approved, paraben-free, and vegan.
