Sofia Richie Grainge Is Loyal to This Drugstore Mascara
Sofia Richie Grainge likes to experiment when it comes to beauty. (Ask her how many products TikTok—or Billie Eilish—has made her try.) But when the beauty muse who brought back the bridal bun finds something that works, she's loyal. And that's why there's one drugstore gem she's so prone to gush over, she has to give a disclaimer: 'This is not an ad,' Richie tells Vogue while spilling her latest Beauty Secrets. Instead, the 26-year-old's ode to Maybelline Lash Sensational Full Fan Effect is something that comes from the heart, after lots of trial and error. 'I've tried every mascara,' she says. 'I don't know what is wrong with me, but this is the only mascara that works for me. Otherwise, I look insane, and my mascara's running down my face constantly. This stays on all day, all night, doesn't run.' And there's more: As the new mom swipes on her beloved mascara, she praises the way it fans out the lashes, lifts them, and gives them a dark but still natural-looking tint. Richie is also loyal to Anastasia Clear Brow Gel, which she's used for a decade, and she's still tight with the concealer that carried her through pregnancy-related hormonal acne. 'This is my girl,' she says, holding up a tube of Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Wear All Over Concealer. 'It's silky and gives me good coverage, but it's not replacing my skin. It's just enhancing it.'

Why can't I put on mascara without opening my mouth? Rita, London Send new questions to nq@ You don't need to when you do your upper lashes but if you open your mouth it stretches your cheeks downwards so you can apply the mascara to your lower lashes without getting it on your face. Goldgreen I can't put on Newsnight without opening mine. StuartDarmon Because that's how your mom/aunt/big sister did it, and you just followed suit. They in turn learned from their mom/aunt/big sister, and so on. It's why I do it anyway! bigflatfeet Same reason you stick your tongue out when concentrating? reggiepurrin My partner tells me it's in case she needs to shout at me. I don't know what that has to do with mascara, but I've learned that when her mouth is open I should keep mine shut. Dorkalicious At least you can put on mascara without needing to open someone else's mouth. That would be awkward. Porthos Otherwise, your lips stick. sparklesthewonderhen I assume it's because you open your eyes in a shocked expression that makes you open your mouth. LadyxxMacbeth

I'm a beauty editor, and this is the one big mascara swap I recommend making for summer
Mascara is the ultimate staple in your make-up bag. A desert island product for many, and a daily must for most. And for those of us without luscious dark lashes, swiping through some black mascara before running out of the house is second nature. However, if you've been addicted to black mascara for as long as you can remember, then I have news for you. Because the most up-to-date way to wear it this summer is to swap black for a the chicer shade of brown - and it could make you look even better. Yes, it looks more subtle, but it can also make certain eye colours - particularly blue and green - pop more. It's mascara's version of quiet luxury; polished but understated. Which explains why more brands than ever are adding the shade to their bestselling mascaras. Read on to discover our tried-and-tested favourites. FOR HIGH OCTANE LENGTH: Hourglass Instant Extensions Espresso Mascara, £32, Space NK This is their cult tubing mascara – so cult one sells every 60 seconds. Tubing mascaras basically work by using polymers that set into flexible tubes that wrap round the diameter of each lash, like a tube coating. These rings extend the length by building beyond the tip of your natural lash, don't crumble like traditional mascaras, and can be removed without using make-up remover. Due to those clever polymer tubes, you can simply slide the mascara off using warm water. Deeply satisfying. £32 Shop FOR GREAT VALUE: L'Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes Panorama Mascara in Brown, £12.99, Boots The increased length and volume this powerful tube can give is gob-smacking. The wand combs clumps out really well and it layers so you can turn the volume up to 11 with two coats. L'Oreal Paris Volume Million Lashes Panorama Mascara £12.99 Shop FOR A NATURAL EFFECT: Glossier Lash Slick Lift and Lengthening Mascara, £20, Space NK This is as subtle as it sounds – more weightless than your typical mascara thanks to tiny one- and two-millimetre long fibres that it sticks to your lashes. You apply it just like a normal mascara and brush through, plus it can also be removed with warm water. £20 Shop FOR DRAMATIC LIFT: Westman Atelier Eye Want You Mascara in Clean Le Brun, £42, Cult Beauty From the mind of Gucci Westman, a high profile celebrity make-up artist and previous Artistic Director at both Lancome and Revlon, this mascara is a real overachiever -which it should be for the price. It has a tapered tip to allow reaching tiny lashes in the corners of your eyes, a creamy formula filled with carnauba and she butter to avoid flaking and help condition, and is highly pigmented for a rich payoff. Plus it has no nasties like silicones, parabens, phthalates, fragrance or talc. Westman Atelier Eye Want You Mascara £42 Shop FOR EXTREME DEFINITION: Sculpted by Aimee My Mascara in Brown, £18, The wand on this is ever so slightly curved for the perfect amount of curl without having to use eyelash curlers. The back of the wand has a really effective comb on it to help define and seek out any lumps – no wonder one sells every second. Sculpted by Aimee My Mascara £18 Shop To get more of what you love from your favourite Sunday supplement, follow us on Instagram (@youmagazine), Facebook (YOU Magazine) and X (@YOUMagSocial).
