Finally, a sport we can all get behind... MAKEUP MADNESS! In the spirit of March, we’ve put together the ultimate battle of the beauty favorites – bracket style! – and it’s YOUR turn to vote! Each week, we’ll have a new showdown, pitting tried-and-true makeup categories against each other until we narrow it down and crown the Community Champion makeup product category… and hopefully get some all-star recs along the way! 😊

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@TeamBIC  Definitely mascara for me! Eye makeup is really the only makeup I wear these days 😷 I go back and forth with mascara but usually use Covergirl Lashblast. 😉

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

definitely mascara all the way!! although i do love lipstick mascara just makes my eyes look so good even without a full glam look Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Full Frontal Volume, Lift & Curl Mascara Cuz I'm Black 

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@TeamBIC   Lipstick wins everytime over mascara.  I love a clean looking face in with a powerful lip!  MAC Cosmetics Matte Lipstick Russian Red   You can’t argue with a classic.

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

Oh @heartsmyface  love the lipstick and the hair

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@heartsmyface @Gorgeous lippie

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

Gorgeous @heartsmyface! 😍

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@itsfi   Thank you!  lipstick HAS to be the winner!  It’s instant glam!  

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@TeamBIC --

 

 Didn't even have to think about this one. Put me on Team Mascara every time. Mascara alone does so much for me, and I love having a mascara wardrobe of many colors and textures. Blue, teal, burgundy, brown, blackest black...

 

Faves: Eyeko, L'oreal's Bambi Eye, MAKE UP FOR EVER Excessive Lash Arresting Volume Mascara Black 

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

I had to think about this for a long while. On the one hand, I do wear mascara everyday when I go out because it makes me look and feel more alert, but if I had to choose between living without mascara or lipstick, I'd have to keep lipstick! Without mascara, I could go for eyelash extensions, but lipstick is irreplaceable! 😁❤️

 

Since I shared a fav lipstick in a previous round, I'll share different favs this time (yaaay!) PAT McGRATH LABS MatteTrance™ Lipstick Guinevere previous gratis from @TeamBIC and Ofra Cosmetics liquid lipstick in Ipsy Unzipped

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

I’m not lipstick hoarder I’m not lipstick lover... yet I have 100+ lipglosses, lipsticks and lip balm combined. I only have about 3 unused mascaras so as much as I try to deny it....Lipsticks 💄💄💄💄all the way

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@blackkitty2014, no hoarding with you! You're a lippie afficianado! 💖 You have to have a certain variety of lippies in order to compare them and share your thoughts. It's all very necessary. 😉🤗

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

Yes it’s all for science purposes @itsfi 😘😂🤣

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

Indeed @blackkitty2014! The sample pool matters in science, so it seems you need to expand that pool of lippies!!! 🛍💄😆

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@itsfi @blackkitty2014   I wholeheartedly agree and use this argument myself.  plus you need to get your lipstick right to go with an outfit.  Mascara no matter what goes with everything so you don’t need as many. 

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

Oh my goodness, yes @heartsmyface @blackkitty2014! 👊🏼 The lippie 💄 can make or break an entire ensemble!! 😉 I mean, sure, maybe it only matters to me, but, is that not enough?!! 😆 

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

I have to go with mascara on this one. While lipstick may be more fun, I can leave the house without it- not the case for mascara! I need something to make my lashes show up! 

 

I tagged the Lancôme Monsieur Big Extreme 0.33 oz/ 10 mL before and it's still a favorite but I'll also add on my favorite for summer since that is fast approaching-- Wander Beauty Mile High Club Mascara Jet Black 

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

Oooh, even though I'm team lip, I do love that mile high club mascara @quspork , it's so good

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

Absolutely, @danielledanielle- it's not clumpy, adds nice length, and stays put! 

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@TeamBIC - I'm on Team LIPSTICK!  Red of course!  💋💄

Re: Makeup Madness Challenge Week 5: Mascara vs. Lipstick

@Titian06 amen to that!
