Tips for perfect lashes
How do we achieve perfect lashes?
No matter how beautiful you apply your makeup, if you don’t put the finishing touch- hence the perfect lashes, the whole makeup look will just look unfinished. Once you top off the makeup with perfect looking lashes, you will achieve the total perfect look.
Ok, once we got this point down let’s get to work.
So how do we achieve the perfect lashes?
Step 1: Lash curler
In order to give the eye a wide-open look and an instant lift, the first step is to curl the lashes.
Here are some of my favorites curlers for the job:
MAC Full Eye Lash Curler with Extra Refill
Beauty Care Kevyn Aucoin The Eyelash Curler
Step 2: Lash primer
Definitely one of the best-kept secrets in the biz. I just don’t think people are sufficiently aware of this product. Being a makeup artist, whenever I pull this product out of my case, I always get the same reaction: “why are you going to apply white mascara on my lashes???”. Well, guys, this white looking mascara is actually a lash primer. It coats the lashes while elongating and thickening the lashes before the actual mascara.
These will do the trick:
Smashbox Photo Finish Lash Primer Base
L’Oreal Paris Makeup Voluminous Lash Boosting Conditioning Primer Mascara
Lancome Cils Booster XL Mascara Enhancing Base
Step 3: Mascara
Applying a good mascara is crucial.
Choosing a mascara is based on your individual needs. There’s such a wide range for all kinds of lashes out there: lengthening, thickening, curling, and all-in-ones.
Here are some of my go-to’s:
lengthening:
L’Oreal Paris Telescopic Mascara
Rimmel Lash Accelerator Mascara
Thickening:
Maybelline New York Snapscara Washable Mascara
Curling:
theBalm Mad Lash Full Size Duo Voluminous Mascara Set
MAC Extended Play Lash – Endlessly Black
All in one:
Christian Dior Diorshow Iconic Waterproof Mascara
Revlon Volume + Length Magnified Mascara
Just remember to apply carefully without clumping. You can remove excess product gently with your fingers.
Apply the wand first from the inner part of the lashes pulling out, and then wiggle the wand vertically.
By now your lashes should be looking pretty amazing.
However, if you’re looking for the extra oomph! and your natural lashes just aren’t enough, even after all these tips, you could always apply fake lashes.
