How to Choose a Perfect Mascara

Most manufacturers offer several types of mascara. However, not many people know that the formula of those products is pretty much the same. What is different is the brush design and this is the very thing you want to consider while choosing a mascara. For example, if you want to curl your lashes a little bit, you will most likely enjoy using a curled brush. In case your lashes are already curled, a straight brush will work for you. In addition to that, you want to choose a brush according to your lashes type. In particular, it’s better to use a bigger brush for long and thick lashes. At the same time, smaller brushes will perfectly work for short eyelashes. So consider your lashes type and choose the right brush for them.

Speaking about brushes, you also want to choose the one that will give you the volume and length you need. For instance, big and fluffy twisted wire brushes are simply perfect for those of you who want to create volume. At the same time, small rubber or plastic brushes will help you create flutter and defined long lashes. So keep that in mind.

Yes, makeup is quite expensive and sometimes you want to save on it but, obviously, it’s not a good idea. The thing is cheap makeup, if it is a fake brand, is uncertified, which means that before the production and retailing nobody checks whether these products are safe to use. So it goes without saying that using these products is actually dangerous, especially around your eyes.

After all, buying a mascara that costs just 10 bucks more is going to be cheaper than paying hospital bills you might end up with after a severe allergic reaction. Therefore, choose a reputable brand and buy mascara as well as any other makeup only in pharmacies or certified stores.

When it’s 90 degrees and you are sweating, even the most expensive mascara will let you down, unless it’s waterproof. This is exactly why you want to consider the season before purchasing a mascara. As we have already mentioned above, it’s better to use waterproof mascara in summer and a regular one in colder seasons.

At the same time, you should know that waterproof mascara is very hard to wash away even if you use makeup remover. Therefore, not to rub your eyes too much as well as avoid mechanically damaging your lashes while removing your makeup, it’s better not to use waterproof mascara too often.
