Why Do Eye Mascara Matter?

Your eyes have the power to convey millions of emotions and your lashes add a whole new dimension to the beautiful expressions. While not everyone is blessed with those long and curly lashes, adding waterproof mascara to your routine can make a huge difference. Here are the reasons why eye mascara matters a lot in completing your entire makeup look

Create Dramatic Definition

The best mascara with safe formulations can go beyond just darkening your lashes. It creates striking definitions that can transform the appearance of your eyes. By adding depth and intensity to your lashes, eye mascara can help your lashes appear larger, brighter, and more expressive.

Enhance Your Eye Shape

The versatility of mascara lies in its ability to cater to different eye shapes and desired effects. Whether you're aiming for elongated, curled, or voluminous lashes, there's a mascara formula and wand shape to help you achieve your desired look. By selecting the right mascara, you can elevate the look and shape of your eyes, adding a natural beauty and symmetry to your look. 

Boost Your Confidence

With just a few swipes of long-lasting mascara, you can get that bold confidence to create a statement look wherever you go. The boost in confidence that comes from knowing you look your best can have a rippling effect on your mood and interactions, empowering you to tackle daily challenges with greater assurance.

Frame Your Face

Voluminous and luscious lashes act as a natural frame for your face, enhancing your features and drawing attention to your eyes. While eyeliner, eyeshadow, and eyebrow products help accentuate the eyes, mascara helps your lashes hold and complete the entire look. It frames your eyes and balances facial proportions by highlighting other features, such as your cheekbones and lips.

How to Choose the Right Lash Mascara

Color of Eye Mascara

While black is the most common color of eye mascara and a must-have, you are free to play with colors when it comes to makeup. When you buy mascara online, check for color options available and ensure the color pigments are safe to use and tested for human use.

Formulation

A smooth, clump-free formulation is considered the best when choosing a waterproof mascara. Look for your purpose and skin condition. Different formulations offer defined, curled, volumizing, and strengthening formulas, which you can opt from. Some eye mascaras are waterproof so that they do not mess in humid weather.

Mascara Wand

The wand your eye mascara comes with makes a huge difference in how your eyelashes appear after application. Some brushes can have fine and short or thick and round bristles. You can have a straight or curved wand as per the look you desire. Look for a detailed guide on choosing your weapon and using eye mascara.

How to Use Eye Mascara

1. Prep is Key

Before you grab your high-volume mascara, ensure your lashes are clean and free of oils or makeup residue. Use a cotton swab soaked in makeup cleanser or micellar water to gently wipe away any traces. 

2. Prime Time (Optional)

Consider using an eyelash primer specifically formulated for Indian lashes. These primers often contain ingredients like castor oil or amla extract, which can help nourish and strengthen your lashes while promoting better and smoother mascara application. It even enhances the natural quality of your lashes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. How Do You Store Mascara For a Long Time?

To store mascara for an extended period, it's crucial to keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Exposure to heat and moisture can hamper the formulation of your eye mascara and make it thick, clumpy, and exposed to bacteria. After each use, ensure the mascara is closed tightly to ensure that excess air is not incorporated, which can lead to drying. Avoid pumping the stick wand in and out of the tube excessively, as this introduces more air that can cause clumping. Also, note that you do not share your mascara to ensure the hygiene and safety of your lashes.

2. Do Mascara Wand Shapes Matter?

Yes, the shape of mascara wands does matter as it can affect the application and effect of the mascara. Different wand shapes are designed to achieve specific results, such as lengthening, volumizing, curling, or separating lashes. While a curved wand is effective for lifting and curling lashes, a thick, fluffy wand adds volume. Similarly, the different shape of the wand affects the final look of your lashes. Choosing the right wand shape depends on individual preferences, desired lash look, and eye shape. Experimenting with different wand shapes can help determine which works best for you.

3. How Often Should I Replace My Mascara? 

Replacing your waterproof mascara every 3 to 6 months is recommended, regardless of whether it has dried out or run out. Mascara has a short shelf life due to its liquid formula, which can risk the formation of bacteria over time. Using mascara beyond its expiration date increases the risk of eye infections and irritation. Signs that mascara should be replaced include a strange smell, changes in texture, or any discomfort experienced upon application. By strictly following the recommended replacement timeline, you can maintain eye health.

4. How Can I Prevent My Mascara from Smudging or Flaking?

Proper steps and tricks are all you need to prevent your eye mascara from smudging or flaking. To start with, ensure your lashes are clean and free from oil or makeup. Then, choose a long-lasting and waterproof mascara with a wand that helps you get the desired look. Choose vegan and safe formulations that ophthalmologists trust. To avoid smudging, let the mascara dry and do not layer unnecessarily, as it can cause flaking. Additionally, using a lash primer before applying mascara can provide a smooth base and enhance lash mascara longevity.

5. Is Lengthening Mascara Suitable for all Lash Types?

Lengthening mascara can be suitable for various lash types, but its effectiveness may depend on factors such as lash length, thickness, and curl. Lengthening mascara contains ingredients that coat and extend the eyelashes, creating the illusion of longer lashes. While this helps those with shorter lashes, it may not provide significant results for already long lashes. If you are someone with sparse or straight lashes, you may find lengthening eye mascara beneficial for giving an elongated look that defines each lash, giving the appearance of fuller, more dramatic eyes.

6. How Many Coats of Mascara Should I Use?

The number of coats of long-lasting mascara depends on your desired lash look and the formula of the mascara you use. Generally, 1 to 2 coats of lash mascara are enough for a natural, everyday look. However, if you want a more dramatic effect with added volume and length, you can apply additional coats, building up the high-volume mascara gradually. You must allow each mascara coat to dry before applying the next to prevent clumping and achieve a smooth, even finish. Experiment with different numbers of coats to find the balance that works best for you.
