My Mascara Routine

Here I'll record my routine for applying mascara, so you'll know how the results are obtained and you can compare for yourself.

I've tried using waterproof mascaras before. However, as I have oily skin, and the fact that waterproof mascaras are removed with oil-based cleansers, they are not a good match for me. By the afternoon I'll have raccoon eyes.

I have found that wash-off mascaras work best for me. They seems to smudge less and flake less. I find that curls last longer too for me.



This is my lashes clean and curled. I use Shiseido's Eyelash Curler.

I always apply to clean lashes. I curl before I apply, using the common method of pumping the roots, the middle, and the tips.

After I apply my mascara, I wait for it to COMPLETELY dry. Then I curl my lashes again.

Now I know some people don't recommend that, saying it'll break your lashes somehow. However, that's never happened to me. But it's important that you let the mascara dry completely before you curl again.

And that's it~ I usually use just one coat of mascara.

XOXO,
