Five Mascara Tips & Tricks


I thought I would swing something a bit different your way in the form of a list of nifty tips that you should put to use when whacking on your mascara. Here are five different mascara tips and tricks that you ought to know… 



1. This happens to me every once in a while. I blink before the mascara has fully dried and it smudges. Badly. A little tip here is to have a stash of cotton buds ready and with a mixture of soap and water use the cotton bud to gently wipe away the mess. It clears the smudge and keeps the mascara on my lashes. Its also the easiest way to correct your mistakes.


2. If your on the go and all you have is a small mirror to help you out with your mascara application - do not panic. This trick will ensure it does not end up all over your face. If you look down into the mirror when applying mascara to your top lashes, it won't go everywhere. 


3. If your itching to thicken up your lashes, then this may help. Get the false lash effect with a tiny sprinkle of powder. If you coat your lashes in powder before you pop on the mascara - It will make your lashes look even more voluminous. This is an amazing way to pack on the volume. 


4. Mascaras can be quite drying on your poor little lashes. Some formulas can really suck the moisture right out of them. It leaves them dry, brittle and very prone to breakage. To stop breakage, coat your lashes every night in a little bit of castor oil. You can buy this very cheap on line. And in the long run it gives you amazing benefits: Thicker, darker and healthier looking lashes. This is not a joke. Get your wagon onto this treatment!


5. You should usually chuck your mascara after 6 months, but its your face and your rules. So if you want to make your mascara last longer, pop 4-5 eye drops into the mascara that you want to save and give it a good shake. This should loosen up the formula and get it back to normal. Dry is a thing of the past.
