How to Bring Focus to your Eyes |
Eyes are the windows to your soul. Enlightening your eyes with mascara helps to maximize your lashes and bring focus to your eyes. Here are a few secrets to help you sport great lashes. - Clean your mascara wand at least once a month to get rid of clumps and prevent build up of bacteria on bristles. Coat the wand with a little Vaseline and gently wipe mascara from the bristles but don't damage the wand. Vaseline works best. Water won't remove the entire mascara residue and soap can irritate your eyes. Shelf life of mascara is 3 - 4 months.
- Always have a dampened Q-tip handy when applying your mascara to clean up any smudges before they dry!
- Use a lash conditioner to improve brittle, dry lashes, extend the life of the lash and to help mascara adhere better and longer. Look after your eyelashes just like your do your hair and skin. If necessary curl lashes using mascara curler before applying mascara.
- For best results, draw the mascara wand out of the tube and gently scrape off any clumps on the side or wipe with a tissue before applying.
- Start at the lash roots and gently sweep mascara to the ends.
- Allow lashes to dry between coats. Use lash comb or spiral brush to remove any clumps.
- Applying mascara to bottom lashes is not necessary and only draws attention to dark circles and wrinkles below the eye area. Try brown on bottom lashes for subtle definition.
- Always remove the mascara before bedtime with a gentle eye make up remover before going to bed.
