An eye-opening look at mascara, eye makeup, liners, curlers and application tips for highlighting your beautiful eyes

Mascara opens up your eyes and lets the world see in. The eyes have it and mascara is the perfect solution after adding eye makeup, to bringing out the inner sparkle of your eyes. There are two basic types of mascara, waterproof and regular and unless you cry a lot or are in the water constantly try to stick with the normal mascara because water proof mascaras can be difficult to remove.

Most women wear black mascara because it looks sophisticated and works well on almost anyone. For a more natural eye makeup look the best shade is brown. If any mascara is too dark for your lashes, try clear mascara for a subtly enhanced look. Bringing out the best features in your eyes requires the application of eye liners, mascaras & lash curlers.

For the best mascara application always apply mascara in a stationary position. Never apply make up on a bus or in a car because if you poke yourself you can scratch your cornea. Mascara is easily contaminated by bacteria which you definately don't want in your eyes. Discard mascara after four months use or when it begins to get dried out or clumpy.

If you want to give your eyes a more open, wide-awake look, you may want to curl your eyelashes with a eyelash curler. Curl your lashes before you apply your mascara and avoid curling your lower lashes because they are more vulnerable. Mascara is a key step in a perfect makeover and allows your eyes to make a bigger impact on your overall look. It is smart to stick to your favourite mascara but you might be missing out on a wonderful new product if you don't try experimenting from time to time
