The Best Brown Mascaras For Natural-Looking Lashes
Lash Clash Extreme Volume Mascara
£30 | YSL Beauty
This comes up as a favourite time and again on the SheerLuxe Community – and for good reason. With a nourishing formula full of conditioning agents, it treats lashes kindly, while the chunky brush layers up nicely for a super-volumising effect. Now available in brown, you get all the same definition and impact, but with a subtler, more flattering tone that’s perfect for everyday wear.

The Full 360 Mascara
£14.95 | No7
Reach for this one when you’re short on time – just a quick flick or two gives you that false-lash effect. Available in both black and brown, it has a nicely curved brush that gets right to the root to lift the lashes, holding them in a curl all day – or night. Ophthalmologically tested, it’s safe for sensitive eyes.

MyMascara
£18 | Sculpted By Aimee
Sculpted By Aimee’s MyMascara is great for lift, making you look instantly awake. Echoing the curvature of the lash line, the shape of the wand allows you to create a fanned-out effect, but it’s still buildable if you want extra volume. We love the brown version for a softer alternative to classic jet black.

Kitten Lash Mascara
£29 | Lisa Eldridge
Our beauty director’s favourite mascara now comes in a burnt, reddish umber tone that will complement all eye colours. It delivers fluttery definition with a curved wand that hugs every little lash for perfect root-to-tip definition. The slightly pointed tip is a bonus – use it to edge out the lashes at the corner for that elongated, feline effect.

Lash Lifting Volumizing Mascara
£28 | Lancôme
Lancôme’s beloved Lash Idôle goes on like a dream, allowing for even application every time. The finish is wide eyed and flirty – plus, the ophthalmologist-approved formula really sticks around, with no flaking or clumping. We love that the soft brown tone delivers just enough impact – like a soft lash tint would.

Volume Million Lashes Panorama Mascara
£12.99 | L'Oréal Paris
L'Oréal’s much-hyped Panorama is one of this year’s biggest mascara launches, and it’s already found its way into the kit bags of many top make-up artists. The brush features both short and long bristles, designed to catch each individual lash to give you that fluttery, dramatic effect. Crucially, the wand comes out of the tube with just the right amount of product – after the first coat, you can even use it to gently comb through the lashes for extra separation.

Limitless Lash Mascara
£27 | Ilia
We love this new launch. Let’s start with the double-sided brush: one edge is full of short bristles that lift like a brush, while the other has longer combs that define, separate and lengthen, so you never get any clumps or unwanted build-up. It’s one to try if you want a fluttery, natural effect, but it’s easy to layer up if you want more volume.

Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara
£35 | Dior
Poker-straight lashes are a common curse, but Dior’s Iconic Overcurl is a godsend. Eliminating the need for the traditional curler step, it does all the hard work for you, fanning out lashes into a sexy, kittenish curl. The curved wand hugs short, stubborn lashes to ensure maximum drama. Build it up with a couple of coats.

The Perfect Waterproof Mascara
£28 | Beauty Pie
If you’re after a waterproof brown mascara, give Beauty Pie a try. Its clever formula locks around lashes and stays put, with a glossy, long-lasting finish that only comes off when you use warm water – it’s similar to a tubing formula – or a dedicated remover. Added vitamin B5 keeps lashes strong and prevents fallout, while shea butter nourishes. Gently curved, the brush adds just enough volume, while depositing a rich brown shade that’s chocolatey and full of pigment.
