I have long black eyelashes and do not wear mascara. My younger daughter has very long black eyelashes and does not wear mascara. My older daughter has sparse short light eyelashes (+ blondish sparse eyebrows, too, despite having long dark brown hair) and does wear mascara. Facial features are different and therefore objective needs are different - how can you answer this question with respect to "all women" - as it was asked?

Idk if you're asking me this question or everyone? I just responded to another poster who wanted an example of minimal makeup and nude tones look the most natural. Women have been enhancing their faces since the Cleopatra days and before that. Its up to the woman really and hopefully her /her partner can find a common ground. Whether a woman wears it or not isn't important to me. My oldest daughter has spectacular dark lashes but she still likes a bit of mascara but still her lashes look better than women who wear mascara. What bugs me in todays society is the mass lip enhancing - I can understand a little if a woman has super thin or barely any lips.....but these huge lips looks ridiculous on a face that's not structured for duck lips.
