The role of these eyelashes.
Before investing in cosmetics intended to enhance the quality of your eyelashes, it is crucial to understand their needs and to avoid as much as possible the use of promising products that could potentially be harmful in the long term. Before applying any treatment to the lash line, remember to test a small amount beforehand on the inside of your wrist to react in time in case of irritation or allergic reaction.
The risk is necessarily reduced by favoring skincare products that contain the fewest possible ingredients, with a near 100% natural origin. To start a gentle treatment, begin by applying Vaseline, castor oil, or a serum specifically designed to boost growth to your eyelashes daily. However, you will need to arm yourself with patience, as the results will not be visible for several weeks.
Mascara or Masquerade: How to Choose Correctly?
If you find the application of mascara essential to thicken and lengthen your lashes, pay close attention to the shape of the brush and favor the more curved ones to maximize the opening of your gaze. As much as possible, turn to organic products and be wary of coating agents. If your lashes are stiff and straight, choose a mascara equipped with small cylinder brushes, which are more manageable and likely to reach hard-to-reach areas. Finally, sparse lashes will need a bushy brush and a creamier texture to simultaneously provide them with length and volume.
Gaze, my beautiful gaze, some basic advice.
If the secret to voluminous lashes lies in the range of chosen products, a few application tips can also help to amplify the desired effect:
Apply your mascara to the upper part of your eyelashes, focusing on the outer tips to enlarge your gaze.
Proceed slowly during application, allowing the brush to sit for a few seconds on the roots before stretching upwards.
Perform slight zigzags to prevent the formation of "clumps" on your eyelashes and to allow for an even distribution.
Avoid "pumping" the mascara in the tube, as this could allow air to enter. This air could potentially dry out the product prematurely.
To intensify the gaze, draw a thin line of eyeliner on the eyelid, close to the lash line. They will instantly appear more voluminous.
