Tip of the Day: Mixing Mascaras

When applying mascara, most people tend to stick to one tube at a time. Instead of being mascara-monogamous, try using more than when coating your lashes.

Use one slick of a lengthening formula, for Twiggy-esq lashes, like Rimmel London's LYCRA Lash Extender ($7.29 CVS). For your second coat go for high voltage volume that separates and curls your eye framers. Try Rimmel London Glam' Eyes Mascara ($3.74, Walgreens) or ModelCo's FATLASH ($32, thebeautymark.com).

Mixing mascaras will give you full dramatically long lashes that scream sexy without looking like your trying. It's a false eyelashes feel without the glue or work.  

Fun fact: Rimmel knows a thing or two about mascara. The company was started by French perfumer, Eugene Rimmel in the late 1800's. The cosmetics maven invented the first packaged mascara-which at the time was a mixture of Vaseline and coal dust. In fact the product was so popular, that the word rimmel still means mascara in several languages such as Portuguese, Dutch and Italian . Ahh the joys of applying coal dust to your eyes! Mascara has come a long way since then!
