Colored mascaras are a cyclical trend we've seen wax and wane over the past few years (ahem, decades). And while we love us a crazy-hued fringe, what we're into right now are metallic mascaras like this one from Yves Saint Laurent. Like the sophisticated cousin of that glitter mascara you bought at Claire's in middle school, this stuff is packed with so much microfine sparkle that it looks practically pearlized. Your lashes catch the light and suddenly no one can look away from all of that shine and dimension.
Bonus: The textured topcoat has an almost fiber-like effect that makes lashes look insanely fuller. Wear it alone or on top of a solid black, or try flitting it along the tips of your lashes for an ombré effect that's sure to make 'em stare.
