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! 😊

TO VOTE, hit the reply button below and TAG a product you love that represents the category you’re voting for. For example, @AlexBT can’t live without her signature cat eye, so in the battle between Mascara vs. Eyeliner, she might reply with “EYELINER! Anastasia Beverly Hills Waterproof Matte Liquid Eyeliner 0.08 oz/ 2.4 mL” 😼

Each new round of voting starts Fridays at 2pm PT, and ends the following Thursday at 2pm PT:

Mascara alllll the way! I wouldn't be surprised if this comes out as the winning product 😉
Currently using and loving Urban Decay Perversion Volumizing Mascara Standard Size Black - 0.4 oz/ 12 mL but still open and on the hunt for other holy grail options. Next on my list to try is Benefit Cosmetics They're Real! Lengthening Mascara Black which I've received as a recommendation from manyyyyy friends and coworkers.

Am I allowed to vote?? 😉  I'm going all in for MASCARA!  And my long time fave has been Benefit Cosmetics Roller Lash Curling & Lifting Mascara Black 

[fatimamummy]

Ooo this is fun!

I’ll pick Mascara, I can always wiggle brush a bit more on the base of lashes to get a slight feel of liner. 
Two favourites 

ILIA Limitless Lash Lengthening Clean Mascara After Midnight  and 

PAT McGRATH LABS FetishEyes™ Lengthening Mascara 0.27 oz/ 8 mL

Mascara is more vital to me than eyeliner, but I love them both.  Mascara is very necessary, eyeliner is added color and fun.  Doesn't everyone NEED Mascara?

I'm still searching for my own holy grail in mascara, trying everything.  I do love to find Brown or Charcoal Grey shades in Mascara. 😊

Mascara

This is a toughie, but I'm going with mascara! 

Wander Beauty Mile High Club Mascara Jet Black for most of the year, but with spring and allergies around the corner, it’ll be ILIA Limitless Lash Lengthening Clean Mascara After Midnight for when my eyes are extra sensitive.

Should work now! 😊

[haleyvvvv]

I'm team, MASCARA!! My picks are the Lancôme Lash Idôle Lash-Lifting & Volumizing Mascara and MILK MAKEUP KUSH High Volumizing Mascara 0.27 oz / 8 ml (this was hard!).

[TheFrew]

Definitely mascara!!! Even when not wearing a full face of makeup, mascara will always be there to save the day! Mascara all the way!

I’m an eyeliner person, I can’t feel my makeup is perfect without it. 👇🏻 This is one of the best 

“Eyeliner” MAC Cosmetics Pro Longwear Fluidline eyeliner Blacktrack 

[jdorevsty]

Eyeliner definitely accentuates a eye look!

[Ispend2much6]

This is a tough one!  I love my eyeliner, but I'm going to vote for mascara.  No matter how hooded my eyes become, I can apply this more easily than liner, and sometimes liner makes my eyes look smaller, while mascara has the opposite effect. Hourglass Unlocked Instant Extensions Lengthening Mascara 

[ssafiaa]

Ok, best mascara hands down, Bobbi Brown Smokey Eye Mascara. Stunning!!

[umadam]

Yes yes Bobbi Brown Smokey Eye Mascara Black  is the best ever 

[Debs00]

Love Mascara!! Benefit Cosmetics They're Real! Lengthening Mascara Black 

[TheOtherSarah]

Eyeliner all the way! Why use mascara when I can wear falsies?

I used to say eyeliner, but mascara is the one thing I can’t breathe without! For me I love MILK MAKEUP KUSH High Volumizing Mascara 0.27 oz / 8 ml the most
