How to max your lashes
We all want long gorgeous lashes, but few of use are blessed with Bambi lashes. Luckily for us there are a host of ways with which we can give them a boost.
- Primer. The most obvious option is to use a seriously Volumizing mascara. But to get even more bang from your fave mascara, try using a lash primer first. Revitalash Volumizing Primer, R195 is the new kid on the block that you can buy here. Estee Lauder also has one; Lash Primer Plus, R215.
- Mascara. Chances are you already have volumizing mascara in your make-up kit already. Apply it in a zigzag motion from the root toward the tip. Clarins Wonder Volume Mascara, R235 and Rimmel Scandal’Eyes Mascara, R89.95 are my all-time favourites.
- If you are really lacking in the lash department, you could use a lash renewal serum. These contain clever proteins and vitamins that help your hairs grow in 4-8 weeks (they also work on eye brows). Ilove RapidLash, R750. It’s tried and trusted by the beauty industry, and you can get it here.
- Of you could opt to ignore the mascara, serum and primer, and just fake it with a set of extensions. Search for a salon near you here or I swear by Eye Candy. You’ll find them in Woolies at Eastgate, Cavendish, VnA and at 99c Kloof Street in Cape Town.
