Apply a layer from the roots to the very tips; then, holding the brush vertically, work through each eyelash. Make sure you let the mascara dry before applying the next layer... |
Listen, I’m all about the most cutting edge beauty procedures and love to dabble in the latest makeup trends, skin care topicals, and even a cellulite treatment or two. I’m a lover (or, at the very least, an appreciator) of all things beauty (from over-the-counter products to medi-spa regimens). But there’s something about permanently changing one’s eye color…it just seems like such a beauty….waste (did I mention that I’m partial to brown eyes?)...
