Word origin

The word 'mascara' originated from the Italian word 'maschera', meaning mask or stain. It was first used in the modern cosmetic sense in the 19th century, when a substance similar to today's mascara was created using coal dust and Vaseline. Over the years, mascara has evolved into a popular beauty product used by people around the world.
