Pumping Up The Volume

So today at work the subject of mascara came up and someone asked me what brand I like to use.  Ever since Sephora came to my neck of the woods I have been obsessed with finding the mascara that isn’t too wet or the brush isn’t the weird plastic kind. I have tried all the high end, high priced mascara but I always come right back to the l’Oreal Paris Voluminous in black. Only $10 bucks! Then  i decided to poll the girls at work to see what they use and you know what, they all use drug store brands. Who said beauty comes at a cost.
Tips of getting the a fuller look with your favourite mascara
1.       Mascara is like a toothbrush: you should replace it every three months. This ensures optimal performance and cuts the risk of infection caused by bacteria build up.
2.       A thick, dense brush is ideal for both light and thicker application. Make sure the brush has no clumps on the end or in the bristles.
3.       To create the look of extra long lashes, try using an eyelash curler.  Align the tool with your lashes and hold for five to ten seconds. Then apply one or two light coats of mascara to extend lashes to their maximum length
 And if you looking for a great false lash brand try Shu Uemura.
