I’m a shopping editor, and this on-sale mascara is the only one I keep repurchasing

YSL's Lash Clash Mascara has serious staying power. Nordstrom; Hannah Southwick See more of our coverage in your search results.

Add Page Six on Google As Page Six’s Associate Shopping Editor, I’ve tried plenty of mascaras over the years — but only one has become my absolute must-have.

While I used to be skeptical of an over-$20 mascara, since testing out YSL Lash Clash, I haven’t turned back. And since the one thing I don’t like about it is the price tag, year after year I stock up by buying a discounted duo during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.

Since YSL products hardly ever get marked down, it’s truly the golden opportunity to try them for less. (The sale ends on August 9, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this set sells out before then.)

While a lot of volume-promising formulas can cause clumping, in my experience, this one grabs every lash without getting goopy.

Plus, unlike other mascaras I’ve tried, it really stays true to its 24-hour smudge-proof promise. Even in an NYC heat wave, I can put it on at 8 a.m. and trust that it’ll still be looking just as good by the time I get to an evening event.

It provides both a volume boost and a little lift — so much so, a friend once even asked if I was wearing falsies.

While I use the black version, the mascara also comes in dark brown and waterproof variations, should you prefer.

Searching for the best sales is quite literally part of my job, and Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale is truly one not to miss. For more of the best products our team is adding to cart, be sure to check out our full editor-approved guide before prices crawl back up on August 10.

Everyone from Sydney Sweeney to Anne Hathaway has been linked to these luxe face masks.

Over $100 off La Mer? That’s practically unheard of.

Osea’s body care products are a hit with Brittany Mahomes, who said the oil has “done wonders” for her skin.

This year’s sale goes live online and in-person beginning with early access to cardmembers on Tuesday, July 14, and will be available to the general public Saturday, July 18 through Sunday, August 9.
