There’s no other beauty product that can have you in a chokehold quite like a good mascara. With so many options available you’d think it would be a piece of cake finding one that does its job – lengthens lashes, gives good volume without clumps or smudging. But a good mascara is hard to find so when one goes viral on the internet for being really really good, the race is on to get your hands on it before it’s sold out.
The latest mascara to captivate the beauty community is the M.A.CStack Mascara, a completely customisable product promising gravity-defying volume from natural to bold lashes to match your mood. The hashtag #MACStackmascara is currently sitting at 127.5 million views on TikTok, and it’s showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

Whether you want to know if the mascara is right for you or you’ve already taken the plunge and got your hands on the product already, we spoke to M.A.C Education Manager, Ocea McKenzie, to find out why the M.A.CStack Mascara is worth the splurge – plus, how to get the most out of it.
Why has the M.A.CStack Mascara gone viral?
“The M.A.CStack Mascara is all the things you could possibly want in one mascara. It has volume, length and curl with the customisation of a brush that suits your lashes and preference. This mascara is designed to be stacked in layers which means it allows for continuous building of the application. I also love that there are two brush options which means you can tailor your preference to your wants and needs.”
There’s the M.A.CStack Micro Brush and the M.A.CStack Mega Brush, how do you know which size is right for you?
“It all comes down to personal preference but a good place to start is for long lashes, start with the Mega Brush and for shorter lashes, start with the Micro Brush. The Micro Brush is smaller and allows for a controlled precise application – this brush is ideal for shorter lashes and lower lash applications. The Mega Brush on the other hand will super stack your lashes with gravity-defying volume – this brush is great for longer lashes and upper lashes.
How can we make sure our mascara stays clump-free?
“You can make your mascara clump-free simply by the application. The best way to avoid clumps with any formula is to wipe away the excess mascara on the opening, and with the application, I wiggle and push the product into the root of the lash and then lightly zig-zag as you pull through to the ends. This mascara is designed to be stacked as little or as much as you like. It wears for 24 hours and delivers weightless volume in a clump resistant formula.”
How many layers would you suggest for voluminous, long lashes?
“This again comes down to preference but 2-3 layers will deliver full volumizing lashes. This is a good place to start and go wild from there.”
Fast delivery – free over $50 – and free returns.
