Want beautiful eyes
but can’t deal with those dramatic false lashes?
Long, voluminous, dark and fluttery,
today we’ve got all your mascara needs covered
with these simple tips and tricks!
If early mornings are your enemy too
we both know how difficult it is to look presentable
minutes before you head out the door!
I always reach for my mascara
as this can be the difference between
looking and feeling awake.
I've been using The Colossal Waterproof Mascara
from Maybelline New York,
for as long as I can remember.
I love how richly pigmented it is,
because just a few coats
can really make my lashes pop.
I don't know if you can see this,
but my lashes are pretty thin.
So another thing I really like about this product,
is that it has collagen.
Now if you follow our videos,
you'll know that the big benefit of collagen
is that it holds the body together.
That's why it's so popular in beauty products.
Now, the collagen in this mascara, makes lashes thick
and plump which is fantastic for someone like me!
Now it's important to use your mascara the right way
if you want to achieve that doe-eyed effect.
You maybe in a hurry
but make sure that you never pump your mascara.
As this can let in air, which produces
unwanted bacteria
and will dry out your product in no time.
Going in with thick layers of mascara
can make your lashes look very unflattering
and clumpy.
So make sure you wipe off the excess
on the rim of the tube first
and then go in with one light layer at a time.
Grabbing my vanity or compact mirror
and holding my mascara parallel to the ground
I run it through my lashes in a wiggle-roll motion.
I think the method that works best for me
is to start from the root and move towards the end
so each of my lashes is evenly coated.
I never forget my lower lash line
as I think they play an equally important role
in making your eyes look bigger and more beautiful.
Heat and pollution play a big role
in how your makeup sits on your face throughout the day,
no matter what time of the year it is.
So a weatherproof mascara like this one
is your best bet to prevent your makeup
from becoming a runny mess.
Long-lasting and volumizing mascaras
definitely hold a special place in my heart
because they work wonders for my lash type.
But if you’re looking for a product
that's going to give you that beautiful curled effect,
I recommend checking out
Maybelline New York’s Hyper Curl Mascara.
This budget-friendly mascara is equally pigmented
and it's perfect for those of you
that have straighter lashes
as it thickens and curls without any flaking.
Remember not to be flustered by your makeup mistakes!
If you get some product onto your eyelid
while applying your mascara,
just wait for it to dry completely
and then gently wipe it off with a q-tip.
Bold lips and fluttery lashes
are my staples for an evening makeup look
but I don’t like to fuss with false lashes
because they can be very expensive and difficult to use.
I prefer going in with a volumizing and long-lasting mascara
like Maybelline New York’s Lash Sensational Mascara.
Holding my mascara wand at an angle,
I concentrate the product in the outer half of my lashes
for that dramatic flair.
I’ve noticed that this technique enhances
and elongates the natural shape of my eyes
giving me that full fan effect
without the hassle of false lashes!
I know taking your makeup off at the end of the day
can be an absolute hassle
especially if you’re really tired.
But this simple 3-minute routine
can really help you in the long run
by preventing dryness, irritation
and also wrinkles around the eyes.
I douse a cotton pad with makeup remover
and hold it flat against my eye for about 15 seconds
or until the makeup begins to melt off.
Rubbing and scrubbing is an absolute no-no!
Instead, be gentle and patient with your lashes!
If you’re a mascara junkie like me,
then you’re probably going to run through a few pads per eye,
but that's totally fine!
Run your fingers through your lashes
one last time to make sure they’re clean
and you’re ready to jump into bed!
So come what may,
your lashes will stay - LONG, THICK & BEAUTIFUL!
Until next time, stay tuned and stay Glamrs!
