Etymology
The word 'mascara' originates from the Spanish word 'máscara', which means 'mask' or 'to mask' and dates back to the late 19th century. It was adopted into English in the 1930s when cosmetics became more readily available for use in mainstream society. Mascara was initially used to darken the eyelashes using a blend of ingredients that could be applied with a brush or wand. Over the decades, mascara formulations have evolved, with advancements in technology leading to various textures, colors, and finishing effects. The term 'mascaraing' likely came to prominence as makeup application became a widely practiced art, with various styles and techniques emerging.
