Quicky Tip- Mascara on a budget

People ask me all the time what mascara I use.  I have nice lashes but the mascara makes all the difference in the world.  The good news is you don’t have to use the expensive stuff to get great results.  Here are my 3 favorites.

1.  Maybelline “The Colossal Volume Express”- the brush is somewhat standard but very thick and gives great coverage on the lashes.  This one is good in both waterproof and regular but the waterproof tents to be stronger and heavier. ($7.49 at CVS)

2.  Maybelline “The Flasies Volume Express”- the brush is curved slightly and it’s very flexible.  I find that this one make the lashes look really long!  It’s great in the regular but I don’t like the consistency of the waterproof version.  It’s too clumpy and dry. ($7.49 at CVS)

3.   Maybelline “Lash Stylist” this is my all time favorite mascara, mostly because of the wand.  It’s like a comb for your lashes.  It makes them look big and thick and it’s very easy to use.  This one is great in waterproof and regular.  http://www.thefind.com/beauty/browse-maybelline-lash-stylist-comb-mascara this link has several locations where you can purchase this mascara.  Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find it in stores lately.   

Note:  You should always have a waterproof and a regular because you don’t want to be the gal with mascara running down her cheeks at a wedding.  However you should wear regular mascara the majority of the time.  Waterproof is bad for the health and integrity of your lashes and should only be used when you have to.
