Ahh.. that deep seducing eye look that steals hearts. Who doesn’t want it? God bless mascara, right? Probably the best eye makeup tool that can transform your eyes into sparkles. Easy to apply and with a long-lasting effect, the mascara can create a very casual look of your eyes or a dramatic and bold look for a proper night out.
As every makeup ritual has their own tricks, here are the most interesting ones when mascara is in question, according to makeup artists and professionals who aren’t afraid to experiment.
So, use the lash comb, the lash curler, some lash primer and cotton swabs. The lash comb will put the hairs in place whereas the lash curler will bring them in shape. Use some primer first so that your mascara won’t smudge onto the upper or lower eyelids and use the cotton swab to quickly clean a mistake.
If you don’t have a primer, you can use some of your translucent powder by applying it on the lashes. It will make them look full and thick.
If you want long lashes, rotate and wiggle the brush from the tip as you apply the mascara. It this way you will go over the lashes several times that doing it with just one stroke. Or, you can buy the best lengthening mascara on the market and rest assured that your lashes will be long and thick.
If you want a bold and dramatic look for your lashes then you need to apply more than one layer of mascara. But how to do it without it looking too clumpy or spidery? Change the mascara each layer. You can use a thinner formula first for defining the lashes, then a thicker formula with a fuller brush to add some volume and then apply a layer from your best lengthening mascara.
You can use a bit of liquid eyeliner to create a fuller look on the lower lashes along with your mascara. Draw small dots between the hairs along the lash line and then wiggle the brush through the bottom lashes. The results will be an instant fuller effect.
Before you start applying the mascara take a look at the brush and if there is too much mascara discard it by pressing the brush from both ends of the bristles against the end of the inner tube. Also, slide in the wand in circular movements not in a straight line downwards as you can pump air into it and the mascara will dry faster.
If your lashes are not strong or have become very thin because of using fake lashes, then use treatment mascara that nourishes the lashes and rebuilds their strength from the root.
So, what do you think? Have you tried any of these genius mascara hacks before? You can always step up your lash game by doing these tricks wherever you are.
