Do you use lash primer? I really like them to amp up sparse or lackluster brows. Actually, I use anytime I want to give eyes a little extra oomph. For my line, VANITYMARK, I actually added a fab primer ('the PRIME') so I'll always have that 'faux lash look' on hand.
At a shoot recently I reached in my kit and to my surprise my tube of 'the PRIME' was nowhere to be found. Keep in mind I have thousands of them in the warehouse...but that does me little good at this photo studio! I tapped deep into my 'Beauty McGyver' and came up with a fab idea to bulk up lashes with something we all have on hand.
Loose face powder. Yes. It really works. Here's how:
Curl and apply a thin layer of mascara just to darken and lengthen a tad. Probably just a touch less than you would usually apply in your first go around with mascara.
Next, dip a mid sized eyeshadow brush into your favorite translucent loose face powder. Fluff over your now dry first layer of mascara'd lashes.
It will look funny...like someone tossed pancake mix at your eyes! Trust me. Allow to set for about 30 seconds to a minute.
Apply your next coat of mascara over the powder until all the white is concealed.
POOF! Instant lash girth and length!
Try it...very fun...and how much do we love getting double use out of a beauty staple!
Enjoy Pretty,
