Graylane Beauty launched a mascara-only subscription service that's designed to do more than just help consumers discover new products. As founder Layne Gray describes: "Our goal is to raise awareness about the importance of changing our mascara out more often."

Ordering the Discovery Set shares formulas that are curling, [volumizing and lengthening](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kush-big-hit-volumizing-mascara) and once a subscriber has found a favorite, it's easy to get a fresh tube auto-shipped monthly, or on a two- or three-month basis depending on one's mascara usage. While the curling formula is paired with a two-in-one brush, the lengthening formula is full of natural ingredients like sunflower oil and citrus fruit extracts.

With ophthalmologist Dr. Nicky Shah, Graylane Beauty developed a patented complex that's helpful for enhancing the mascara, as well as tending to the care of the delicate eye area by reducing inflammation.
