Best for... when you’re on a budget

Essence Volume Stylist 18h Lash Extension Mascara, £2.99, justmylook.com

We love using this cheap and cheerful mascara, it really does feel like you are wearing a pair of falsies. The smaller wand suits short lashes perfectly, which is especially handy for ensuring the inner lashes are covered. It’s easy to wiggle back and forth and capture every lash without leaving pesky splodges on eyelids.
