Lovely organic brand Dr Hauschka has brought out a new lash-building mascara that works a treat and contains only natural and biodynamically cultivated ingredients, making it especially suited for contact-lens wearers.

It comes in black, golden green, but more enticingly, aubergine, a subtle but flattering shade if you want to experiment with your lash colour.

It costs 23.45 and is available from good health stores and pharmacies.
