Mascara refers to a cosmetic product that is applied to the eyelashes to alter their appearance. There are many different types of mascara available from drugstore brands and expensive designer ones.
Factors to consider when buying a mascara
1. Purpose of use
Most makeup products have a purpose and mascara is no different. The most common reason for using mascara is to make the eyelashes more visible, although there are other reasons such as lengthening the lashes and getting rid of mascara clumps.
Mascara can be used for more than one purpose; therefore, it is important to consider the product that you are going to buy.
2. Product type
There are several different mascara types, each with a different function. Most women will go for the waterproof ones to last all day, some will choose waterproof ones while others prefer the classic ones. It all comes down to personal preference and what you need from the mascara.
It would not make sense to buy heavy-duty mascara if your eyelashes are short and thin as you may end up looking like you are wearing false lashes and this is not what every woman wants.
3. Volume
Most women would want their lashes to look full and thick. While some would want their lashes to look long and luscious. For some people, a mascara that gives volume is what they need, so having it in their cosmetic kit is vital.
Tips for using mascara
You may have previously used a mascara that brought you good results in terms of lengthening your eyelashes but when you decide to use another product, you realize that it is barely making any difference. This is why it is very essential to stick to using the same mascara, this way you can tell if it is working or not.
You should also avoid applying too much mascara as this may end up clumping your lashes together. It would be advisable if you apply a coat of mascara and then after you have achieved the desired results; you could go ahead and apply more coats to achieve the look that you want.
