Five Steps for Perfect Eyelashes
Wear Mascara
This makeup has a lot of influence on your look. Always choose a high-quality product, with natural ingredients, to hydrate and care for your eyelashes, that is also easy to remove but does not come off right away.
Keep it in a cool and relatively dry area so that it lasts longer.
- Before applying mascara, remember to clean your lashes well with makeup remover or moisturizing cream, and then rinse with warm water.
- Dry them well and apply a thin layer of mascara.
- Let dry, and then apply a second layer. If you concentrate on the far end of your upper eyelashes, you will give more deepness to your eyes.
Use an Eyelash Curler
There’s no doubt that curved eyelashes are more sensual. Eyelash curlers do this job and are not expensive. Also, what’s nice is that the process does not hurt.
- Just hold it for a couple seconds and that’s it!
Separate Your Eyelashes
When you’re applying mascara, your eyelashes tend to stick together and form groups.If the makeup is not good quality, it will also leave clumps.
- To prevent these inconveniences, put the back part of a spoon face up on your eyelashes and repeat, curving upwards.
- Let the mascara dry and use an old, unused toothbrush or special brush to get them how you like.
Use an Eyelash Brush
When you apply the mascara and before it dries, use a brush to style them how you like. Another good idea is to do this before putting on makeup, but only if you have high-quality mascara.
The good news is that this also increases blood flow and gets rid of the lashes that have fallen out.

More Tips for Perfect Eyelashes
- Avoid curling them with mascara on, because they will get damaged easier.

- Always curl your eyelashes in three parts, gently and being careful not to break them. As a result, the effect you get will be more natural and you will also be protecting them from direct problems.
- You should apply the natural oils that help the beauty and health of the eyelashes (olive, almonds, castor) up to twice a week in order to keep them hydrated.
- Heated eyelash curlers should be used with great caution, just like hair irons. The results are not 100% satisfactory, but they can be good for a special occasion.
- Before applying mascara, you can put on a multiple-effect base, in other words, something to separate the eyelashes, give them volume, define the curl, and not leave clumps when you put on the two layers of color.
- Eat more oranges, carrots, and honey to help in the growth of eyelashes from the inside of your body.
