Fun Fact's About Your Basic Mascara!



Mascara is a product used to coat and define eye lashes. If you use only
two makeup products everyday it has been recommended that it be
mascara and lipstick. Both easy to use and reapply if need be.

Mascara comes in a multiple of colors , dark colors like black, brown, and
navy blue. It also comes in colors not commonly used for everyday,
fushica, light blue, green, purple, gold and more.
Don't forget we also have our glitters, some brands better than others.
*Glitter Mascara can be wore in your hair as well! If there is a color that
you feel is just too wild to be wearing but would look really cool in your
hair then that try instead?

Mascara comes in many formulations, waterproof, water-soluble, with
added moisturizers, lengthen and thickeners and now mascara that helps
your lashes curl and even grow!
There are drugstore brands and expensive brands all comes down to your
choice and your pocketbook. A lot of the more expensive brands
offer more types and do more for your lashes but for everyday use, often
a inexpensive store brand will do. While reading your beauty
magazines and makeup forums online you will find that everyone
has that "one" mascara they will not stop using. Everyone is loyal to a
brand and tell you all about it!

When it comes to applying mascara please only use the applicator it
comes with. A lot of the companies prided themselves on the type of
brush they offer, saying that its the brush that makes the mascara better
than the rest, not what is in the tube.

A common problem we all have with mascara, is sometimes it smudges or
even flakes. If it has started flaking on you, that is a very good tip that
its old and needs to be replaced fast!

One of the best ways not to have your mascara start smudging is to not
put your eye cream that you should be using everyday, do not put it
right under your eye. The reason is as the day goes on, the eye
cream moves closer to your eye causing your mascara to become a
little wet. Just enough for it to start smudging specially if you are
wearing it on your lower lashes.
There is one very popular older model who's idea for not having your
mascara smudge, is after you have removed your cleanser is to go
around the eye with a Q-tip with a toner as a well to make sure there
is nothing left under the eye to get onto your mascara. But that also means
going without using any eye cream, and that is a sure way to have those
little fine lines to show!

Do not go without eye cream just because it might cause your
mascara to smudge. No matter what keep using your eye cream! Because
it’s the eye creams that keeps you’re the skin around your eye moist and
not show off your wrinkles if you are old enough to have them.

Did you can even “seal” your mascara by adding a single coat of clear
mascara over your regular mascara? That is good if you are
wearing glitter mascara and making sure that the glitter doesn't start flake
off.
Before applying mascara use the eyelash curler not after! It will pull and
can break off your lashes if you try to curl your lashes after applying
mascara. If you have clumps there is a lash comb made just to help take
out the clumps.Use it gently and before the mascara dries.

Need tips on how to apply your mascara?
You apply mascara with smooth upward strokes. Many makeup artists feel
you don't need to apply mascara to your lower lashes but most
women do. Mascara looks best usually with just one to two coats
on the top lashes and only one coat on the bottom lashes.

To get truly thick lashes use Magic Lash eyelash enhancer.* Its natural
fibers give length and true thickest to your lashes. Apply one coat of
mascara apply a coat of Magic Lash but blow lightly on the wand before applying as a coat.
Than add a second coat of mascara and see what it does for your eyes!

Because the mascara applicator comes into contact with the eye, bacteria
is then transferred back into the tube. Not sharing your
mascara is the only was to stop anything transferring into your eyes and its best
to replace your mascara every six months to keep it fresh.
And there you have it, just a few common facts about your basic
mascaras.
