The mascara with a budget-friendly price and a high-end finish
Here’s what our SUPERcrew had to say about this impressive drugstore mascara
The product
Just because you’re on a budget doesn’t mean you need to look like you are.
Designer Brands Centre Stage Curl & Volume Mascara pairs a drugstore-friendly price with a high-end finish, resulting in seriously luxe looking lashes that won’t break the bank.
The innovative tubing formula utilises hyaluronic acid to keep lashes healthy and soft, while the curved brush adheres to each lash for separated, volumised and curled lashes. You can apply one coat for a defined look or layer the buildable formula for a false lash effect.

The lowdown
Here’s what the SUPERcrew loved about Designer Brands Centre Stage Curl & Volume Mascara.
The smudge-proof formula: Our SUPERcrew members loved the way the mascara wore throughout the day, with many saying they didn’t experience any smudging or panda eyes.
How soft and buildable the mascara is: Reviewers liked that they were able to build up the mascara with multiple layers to create a more volumised look, while also retaining the softness of their natural lashes. They found the mascara didn’t clump or make their lashes look stiff.
The false lash effect it delivered: Members were very impressed by the amount of volume they were able to add to their natural lashes with just one swipe, but they also liked that they could layer the formula for a dramatic false lash look if they wanted more oomph.

Briar Clark got her start in the media industry in 2017, as an intern for Marie Claire and InStyle. Since then, her keen interest in fashion and beauty has landed her gigs as a Digital Content Producer and Beauty Editor with titles like Girlfriend, Refinery29, BEAUTYcrew and beautyheaven. She loves the way seemingly innocuous topics like skin care and style have the ability to put a smile on people’s faces or make them think about themselves a little differently. A big believer in self love and experimentation, Briar has made a point of becoming the Australian beauty industry’s unofficial guinea pig for unusual treatments and daring hair trends. When she’s not testing out the latest beauty launches, Briar is big on broadening her horizons, mostly in the form of food but she’s also partial to travelling to new destinations both near and far (and of course, allocating an extra bag to bring their best beauty offerings home with her).
