What we used:
- Full Fat Lashes mascara
- Cotton swabs
- Unscented and talc-free baby powder*
- lash curler
First, curl clean lashes and apply one coat of mascara to hold their shape.
Drop a small amount of baby powder into the palm of your hand and pick up a bit of it by swirling a cotton swab through.
Dab the swab over the wet lashes to coat them in powder. The powder will stick to the mascara leaving a dusty look. Make sure all the lashes are coated.
Swipe on a final layer of mascara over the powdered lashes for an extra full effect.
The results? As far as fullness goes, an extra coat of mascara instead of a layer of powder would have probably done just as much. However we did notice a change in length as the buildup of powder on our lash ends gave us a bit of extra lash to bat about.
The verdict? Overall the difference was negligible and the process was a bit messy. However if your daily mascara isn’t cutting it in the thickening department, swabbing on a bit of powder in the morning might be just the boost your eyes needed.
