* To prevent smudging, wipe off any excess mascara from the wand before use.
* Don’t match your mascara colour with your eye colour.
* For full lashes that don’t stick together, use an eye lash comb, or a damp toothbrush to comb through your eye lashes.
* To make mascara stay on your lashes for longer, brush some foundation powder over your lashes before applying mascara to them.
Mascara is great for emphasising your eye lashes. As well as adding colour to your lashes it can thicken and lengthen them too.
Firstly you need to choose what colour and what type of mascara to apply. Black mascara is the most commonly used. It looks great for all hair types, although it can look a little intense on blondes during day time. It can look spectacular on blondes at night though. Deep burgandy shades go well with red hair, and shades of brown work well on some shades of blonde hair.
When applying mascara, make sure you don’t have an excess on your mascara wand. Start by applying mascara to your upper lashes. This is done by using full strokes from their base to their tips. Wiggle the wand to get mascara onto the roots of the lashes, then stroke it forward and roll it at the tip to curl them upwards for a fantastic look. For your lower lashes take care not to smudge under the eye. You will need less mascara to coat your lower eye lashes. Apply mascara to the lower lashes by applying from side to side rather than up and down.
Now admire you beautiful eye lashes in the mirror!
