To choose the best mascara, we recommend that you first keep in mind what effect you want to achieve and then inform yourself about existing products, read the reviews carefully and keep in mind some factors:
1. The type of lashes you have: everyone has lashes of different shape, thickness and length.Remember that a mascara with a lengthening effect is suitable for those with short and thin lashes, volumizing is perfect for those who want to thicken them to increase the depth of the look and, finally, curling is suitable for those with undefined lashes who need to be given a form.
2. The formula: usually all mascaras are based on particular waxy resins, with the addition of nourishing oils and coloring pigments. Our advice is to prefer products that have as many natural ingredients as possible or that, at least, contain oils that can nourish and strengthen your lashes.
3. The shape of the applicator: each brush has been created with a different design based on the effect that the mascara must give. The tubular applicator is used to lengthen the lashes, the curved one to shape them and the hourglass one to lengthen and volumize them.
Considering that mascara is a product that is applied in contact with the eyes, it is necessary to pay particular attention to its use, especially if you have delicate eyes or if you wear contact lenses. If you are a make-up addicted you will certainly not have problems related to the expiry of the product, but if you do not use it so often, remember to throw it away after it has been open for more than three months.
And when, on the other hand, the brush is no longer able to take the residues of the mascara left at the bottom of the container? In that case you can dilute what's left of the product with a few drops of almond oil.
We assume that the black mascara goes well with all the colors of the iris: it is to be preferred a "normal" black for those with light eyes and instead in the "intense" variant for those with a naturally dark iris, so to give further depth to the look.
However, if you want to be daring and, with the arrival of summer, you want to experiment with make-up with colored mascara, here are some tips to follow.
- Brown eyes: blue mascara. A combination of colors that brightens the eye.
- Green eyes: burgundy or purple mascara. These contrasting colors emphasize the green of the iris.
- Blue eyes: brown mascara. Emphasize the look without weighing it down. Do you want a more modern and pop touch? Try the fluo. Orange, for example, would look great, especially in summer.
