Here are my favorite mascaras that will complete your look and satisfy your senses:
5) DiorShow Mascara - Retail Price $24.50
DiorShow comes highly recommended by makeup artists around the globe and rightfully so. It curls the lashes while coating them with color. If you want to enhance your curves (on your lashes, of course) and complete your runway catwalk, check out DiorShow Mascara.
4) MAC Splashproof Lash - Retail Price $15.00
This is my #1 recommendation to brides, their mothers, sisters and anyone else that may shed some tears while wearing mascara. Using this product is like coating your lashes with little mini umbrellas, it works great and does not clump. To keep mascara on your lashes and not trickling down the side of your cheeks, try Mac's splashproof lash.
3) BADGal Lash by Benefit - Retail Price $19.00
The wand of this mascara says it all! The ultra-thick long brush will coat your lashes top to bottom, giving you big beautiful sexy lashes. Wiggle the wand back and forth as you apply to really saturate the lashes with product. If you are looking for full, fierce lashes with attitude, BADGal's magic wand will make it happen.
2) Makeup Forever Smoky Lash Mascara - Retail Price $22.00
What don't I love about the Makeup Forever line? All their products are fabulous and this mascara is no exception. I especially recommend this to clients with lighter lashes because it is ultra-pigmented and coats the lashes with full, rich color. For the perfect mascara to complement your smoky eye, use Makeup Forever's Smoky Lash.
1) Supernova Mascara by Fresh - Retail Price $25.00
This may come as a surprise to some of you, but keep in mind that this is a list of 'favorites.' Why do I love this product over all the others? It is alcohol-free so it does not dry your lashes, but conditions them with natural oils. Supernova is also free of sulfates, synthetic dyes, and fragrances for those of you that may have sensitive eyes. AND this formula has fortifying ingredients that actually help strengthen your lashes while defining, thickening, and lengthening them... all in one rich coat!
As if all that is not enough to make me love this product, every time I use it, I get numerous compliments on my eyes and lashes. Apply 2-3 coats for a look that will have you say Bye Bye to false lashes and Hello Supernova!
Bonus Mascara Tip: Just like frosting on cupcakes, mascara should be the last step of your makeup routine, unless of course you are adding sprinkles ;)
Whether you put on your lipstick, gloss or mascara last, use the following tip for your lashes:
By applying mascara after your makeup is done, any shadow or powder that falls onto your lashes can be cleaned up with the wand. To make the lashes appear fuller, dust a layer of translucent loose powder on them before applying mascara.
