Five hacks for our basic make up tool, mascara

by

From smoky eye to cat eye, the way you use mascara can completely transform make up. Below you will find the professional tips and secrets discovered by Global Beauty Director, Newby Hands for Porter to make the most of the mascara you have in your kit.

For intense smoky eye

The solution is to apply the mascara with lateral movements, exactly at the root of the lashes and in the middle of the length. Do not reach the ends of the lashes with the brush, this will not lengthen the lashes but will make them more intense. You need density right at the base of the lash. This technique also gives a great frame, especially on blue or green eyes, if you use black mascara.

For the perfect cat’s eye

This is the classic make up in Lauren Bacall’s eyes. Pass the mascara with outward movements, almost horizontally – sideways, not upwards – through the lashes. Use a mascara that gives volume, as they tend to be wetter, so when they dry, they hold the lashes in place better. Volume mascaras are not ideal for giving length, but they are great for volume and shape.

To make the eyes look bigger

You need to emphasize the center of the eye. Apply the mascara on the upper lashes and then, right in the center of the lashes (above the iris), use a mascara that gives volume – and apply it keeping it upright. This thickens and emphasizes the lashes in the middle.

Layer with your mascara

Use your daily mascara first, along the entire length of the lashes, and then apply one that gives volume – but use it only at the base of the lashes, at the roots.

How to take care of your eyelashes

Vincent Ford, Nars global makeup artist in our article reminds us of an old trick, the castor oil for eyelashes and eyebrows. Just apply it with a cotton ball and leave it overnight. Eyelash serums will help the lashes grow longer, but will not necessarily make them thicker – which is what is required. In addition, an oil-based make-up remover cleanses and softens the lashes.
