Eyelashes

Sorry QBs, I was away in China and didn't realize I do not have access on gmail blogger because it is blocked in China...... yeah.... wtf.. i know. Anyways, I am back~~ Now let's continue :)

While I was away, I got messages inbox from a friend asking about how to create long and curly eyelashes. Looking at how the cartoon distinguish male and female are always by adding the long and curly lashes... So, I suppose, lashes symbolize femininity.



Therefore creating beautiful lashes becomes an important thing to learn in make-up application. And there are tricks on using products like eyelash curler and mascara to create natural and curly lashes. Following points and tricks are key to create full and beautiful lashes:

1. Pick a good curler - the first thing is to have a good tool. :) Go figure.... LOL ...

I recommend 2 brand: Shu Uemura and Shiseido. Why? It's because they are design to have good shape to fit the shape of eyelid. Plus the rubber(filler) last a long time. it can give your lashes a good squeeze into a pretty curly shape. I highly recommend them~~

2. Heat the lash curler up before using it - My secret weapon is blow dryer! Yes! Blow dryer! You heard me right. What does it have to do with curling your lashes? Use blow dryer heat up the lash curler before curling the lashes can make the curl last longer. Also, blow dryer can heat up the curler quickly. It usually takes 4-5 second. Don't heat it up too much. You don't want to burn your eye lids either. :) Squeeze it a few times to make the curl last a whole day.



3. Pick the right Mascara for your lashes - There are way too many mascara out on the market. In general, there are a few different types of mascara: for length, volume or shape holding.
For QBs who have natural curly lashes but like more volume, use Dior Iconic Mascara or L'Oreal Extra Volume Collagen Mascara





For QBs who have shorter lashes, use Almay pure blend volumizing mascara or Clinique high definition Lashes Brush then comb to extend the length of the lashes to get longer and sexier look.

For QBs with less curly lashes, use mascara that holds the shape of the curled lashes after using lash curler is important, try Majolica Majorca Masacara , Makeup Forever Waterproof Mascara. They can hold the curly shape, so the curls can last longer and lashes are more dramatic.



4. One more trick: After the mascara dry, use the lash curler to re-enforce the shape again. It will give you a even more dramatic and longer lasting look I promise. :)


Next time, I will show you how to wear false lashes and lash grower products. Stay tune my lovely QBs!!
