That's a common misconception! Mascara is usually made from a combination of ingredients like:
* Pigments: These give mascara its color.
* Waxes: These help to thicken and hold the mascara's shape.
* Oils: These help to condition the lashes and make the mascara smooth.
* Resins: These help to bind the ingredients together and make the mascara waterproof.
There are also some natural mascaras made with ingredients like beeswax, carnauba wax, and vegetable oils.
So, rest assured, your mascara is not made from horse tails!
