mascaras

Wand-applied eye cosmetics

Mascaras is the plural of mascara, the cosmetic applied to eyelashes to darken, lengthen, or thicken them.

The plural appears when discussing multiple products or formulations: She tested several mascaras before finding one that didn't smudge.

Mascara comes in various types—waterproof, volumizing, lengthening—hence the need for a plural when comparing options.
