Eyelashes

Post by Ellie »

Hello, Ellie here, .What brand of mascara is best for those long lashes? I've just bought a curling tool and it's like they hardly curl. I've got false one's but would like them to be less trouble and less glamoures(sp). Thank you, Ellie

First, if you curl your lashes, do it gently!!!!! There are two types of mascara, water based is the easier to remove, but I have found, for me it does not stay on as well and tends to run! As for the particular types, it is the old saying, "you get what you pay for," so spend the extra couple of bucks and get the better brand name. I use this method - curl your lashes, GENTLY, then eye liner if you use that, (again, the pencil seems to work best for me - not the liquid) then mascara, then eye shadow, then come back with a second application of mascara to add additional length and to cover any shadow that my have gotten on the lashes.
Trial and error works too,
