Smoky Eye Essentials : Mascara

| September 5th, 2007 | Makeup

After the flawless, precise eyeshadow application, and smudging smudging via the eyeliner, let’s focus our attention to the lashes!

Well, first things first, mascara and eyeliner are practically bestfriends. Yeah, like Romy and Michelle! ( High School Reunion? ). Why? It’s because they think alike, and work alike! The eyeliner works to define and prettify the eyes, make them look bigger, and mascara further boosts what the eyeliner does, like a multiplying effect! They both have the same job of making your eyes look bigger, defined, and beautiful!

For those who have thin, hardly noticeable lashes, or some with short ones, mascara is there to the rescue to lengthen, volumize, and make your lashes stand out ! What I want in a mascara is the false lash effect – I really want lush eyelashes that would help me make people stop. and I mean stop, as I start to flutter my lashes! Hahahaha!

The Lancome Fatale Mascara ( shown above ) is one of the most popular mascaras out there. I kept on going back to the Lancome counter last year to inquire about it but what they launched was the L’Extreme Mascara. I don’t know if they have this already. Expensive, but definitely gives off the false lash effect.

One of the more popular brands of mascaras are the Maybelline Unstoppable Mascara and Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara, something that I have tried a year ago. Right now, I am using Blinc Kiss Me Mascara which does not smudge, clump, and stays even if I cry all day long ( not that I do! )

So, what’s your favorite mascara?
