Forget Ashley Graham’s awkward Oscars interview — we’re obsessed with the $8 mascara she wore
Ashley Graham may have made headlines last night for her awkward red-carpet interview with Hugh Grant at the 95th Academy Awards, but our eyes were fully on her showstopping look. The supermodel wore a sultry crystal-embroidered number from Alberta Ferretti that featured billowing sleeves and sexy cutouts. The outfit was complemented by her cool, slicked-back, braided hairdo, flawless complexion and gorgeous smoky eye. The best part? Her entire makeup look was created using affordable Revlon products, including a volumizing mascara that's just $8.
Graham’s beauty look was created by celebrity makeup artist Ivan Nú?ez, who said, “We wanted to go for a classic Hollywood glamour look with a twist. I was heavily inspired by the sharp graphic lines of the gown! So I gave her a beautiful, sharp, smoked out liner moment.” To create her dramatic cat eye, the L.A.-based artist chose Revlon's ultra-popular ColorStay Day to Night Eyeshadow Quad to add color to her lids (her Moonlit palette is sold out but other stunners are available) and two eyeliners: ColorStay Eyeliner and ColorStay Liquid Liner. Nú?ez completed the smoky eye with one of our favorite mascaras, Revlon's So Fierce Big Bad Lash Mascara.
It makes sense that Graham went all-out Revlon — she's such a big fan of the brand, she's one of its global ambassadors. And she’s not the only one; nearly 5,000 Amazon shoppers have given this mascara their seal of approval. Not only does it boost volume and lengthen lashes, but it lasts up to 24 hours. Even better, it's smudge-proof, flake-proof and has lash tint technology that gradually darkens lashes in as little as a week thanks to the natural dyes infused in the product.
“OK. Hands down, this is THE BEST mascara I have ever used,” raved one shopper. “NO clumping and no smearing. It makes your lashes look so long and beautiful after only ONE coat. I usually use two coats and it legit looks like I’m wearing lashes. Honestly, you don’t even really need lashes if you use this mascara. And, it’s super easy to remove. For the price and quality, it’s a must-have. This mascara works better than most of the higher-end ones I have used in the past!”
“This SO FIERCE! Mascara did not clump. It applied very smoothly. My lashes were lifted up and extended. They even appeared to have more volume and seems like they are thicker. I like that. I love mascara; I wear it every single day and always will,” said another.
The popular mascara is normally an already affordable $12, but right now can be yours for a mere $8. Snag a bottle of the Ashley Graham–approved mascara while it’s still on super sale!
