Mascara is one beauty product that can rapidly change how your eyes look, but are you getting the most out of it?
What some of you did not know is that there’s more to applying and using mascara than just swiping it on your eyelashes.
Here’s a list of hacks to get a lot more out of your lash loader:
1. For Serious Volume, use Baby Powder
First, apply one coat of your mascara, then dust a little baby powder onto your lashes using a cotton bud (make sure each lash is coated in powder). Then apply another couple coats of mascara to cover any white specks.
The powder will give lashes an instant thickness and length boost.
2. De-Clump Lashes
When your eyelashes are overloaded with mascara, use a toothbrush to brush away any excess.
3. The Credit Card Trick
To avoid mascara smudges all over your lids, hold a credit cash above your lash line and push the mascara wand into your lashes moving it back and forth.
You'll be able to increase the volume, without the messy eyelids.
4. Hot Water To Rescue a Dry Mascara
If your favorite mascara has started to dry up simply pop the tube in a glass of hot water. The heat will soften the formula so it's go on just like new.
5. Run Out Of Liner?
Dip an old eyeliner brush into your mascara and use it as a liner.
6. Instant Smoky Eyes
Use your shadow brush to take the excess mascara off the wand, then blend it over your lids to give them smoky look. Do not forget to smudge a little along your lower lash line.
7. Bend Your Brush
Bend your mascara brush so it is on an angle, this makes it much easier to push your lashes up from the roots.
8. Make Any Mascara Waterproof
If your favorite overpriced mascara cannot hold up against a bit of drizzle, simply grab a super-cheap waterproof mascara and layer it over the top of your favorite lash loader to make it waterproof.
9. Recycle Your Mascara Wand
If there's no life left in your mascara simply wash the wand and keep it to use as an eyebrow brush!
