Shrewsbury spa blog - lovely lashes!

Ladies - what is your ultimate makeup essential? It might be a dash of bright lipstick, a mattifying powder or pop of blush… These are all important, of course, but many of us would say our No.1 is mascara.

Over the years, our beauty therapists at Imagine Spa Shrewsbury have been collecting top tips for mascara application. These are all "tricks" that they use personally, and that any beauty professional should know. From their lips to your eyes – now you too can be a mascara expert!

 

• Avoid clumps by wiping off excess mascara on the wand before applying. If you see any blobby bits, wipe them off first.

 

• Get the most defined lashes possible by using lengthening mascara first and then add a coat of thickening mascara. This will take twice as long, but will look twice as good! Don't let the first layer dry before you add the second layer or your lashes will clump and the product will crumble.

 

• Always use a lash curler, as curling up the lashes will help to make your eyes look larger. Some of us say they should be used before applying mascara, some say after, and this really is a personal choice. Either way, the main consensus is that you should use curlers for the best, lifted lashes.

 

• Don’t ‘pump’ the mascara wand in and out of the container. We’ve seen a lot of people doing this in our time, and it’s not a good habit. This will pump air into the tube and ultimately will dry out the contents, meaning you have to buy replacements more often. Save money and don’t pump!

 

• Don’t throw away your old wand! Wash it in soap to remove any residual product and you are left with a handy, free lash comb. This is an essential tool to separate and de-clump lashes after applying mascara.
