10 Best Hypoallergenic Mascaras For Sensitive Eyes, According To Doctors

If you want to add a bit of drama without the price tag of a luxury pick, e.l.f. Cosmetics has you covered with this formula. The hourglass-shaped wand separates and defines, so a single swipe or two yields big, bold lashes. It's also infused with jojoba wax to help hold the curl and nourish lashes all at the same time.

TikTok propelled this hardworking mascara into the limelight a few years ago, and there's no sign of the hype slowing. It's one of the most affordable drugstore formulas out there, still it makes lashes look just as long and thick as other options nearly quadruple the price.

Tubing mascara relies on polymers (rather than waxes) to coat each individual lash with a little tube for fantastic separation and length—and this one by DHC is no exception. The fine-bristled, flexible wand grabs even the tiniest hairs for a dramatic but natural effect. It's water-resistant for all-day wear, too.

Though nice and lightweight, this tubing mascara has a small and precise applicator that deposits the rich pigment in a single swipe—no layering required. Just be sure to wipe off any excess on the side of the tube, then slowly press and wiggle back-and-forth from root to tip for the best, most natural-looking results.

For dark, dramatic lashes, turn to Charlotte Tilbury's Full Fat Lashes Mascara. The magic is in the five-groove brush, which deposits just the right amount of smooth, creamy mascara along your lash line where each one of the super fine bristles then work hard to pull lashes up and out, creating the perfect flutter.

It may be hypoallergenic, cruelty-free, and water-resistant, but this drugstore formula is also super affordable—and one of Green's all-around favorites. "This mascara will provide smooth and natural-looking length and volume for those with sensitive skin and allergies," she says. According to the manufacturer, the patent-pending spin-shaped brush is designed to create ten times the volume without any clumping or flaking.

Infused with natural ingredients like hemp oil, this mascara is designed to do more than make your lashes look stunningly long and voluminous in the moment—it also nourishes them from root to tip for naturally healthier lashes in the long-run. Still, this richly-pigmented mascara is entirely vegan and cruelty-free.

It may not look like anything fancy, but this mascara wins a lot of praise from medical professionals and users alike. It's hypoallergenic, ophthalmologist-tested, and fragrance-free, but has no trouble defining, separating, and lengthening lashes. Wearers love how easy the brush is to use, plus stays put and is a breeze to remove at the end of the day.

Get the doe eyes you've always wanted with this aptly-named mascara. The waterproof formula has a wide, defined brush that grabs individual lashes to lift and separate, making eyes look bigger and brighter.

Available in both standard and travel sizes, this mascara is a worthy option for those with sensitive eyes. The vegan formula curls, volumizes, and lengthens to deliver bold, dramatic lashes without any irritation. Perhaps it's biggest claim to fame though? Wearers can't believe how long their long, lush lashes stay put.
