amazing tips for mascara application, these stars have generously divulged
their unique and personal top tips.
1. AnnaSophia Robb
AnnaSophia
explained her trick for applying mascara: "So naturally, I just have
really long eyelashes. It's a problem because they make it look like I have
bags where my lower lashes hit. But the type of mascara doesn’t really matter
as much as how you put it on. Take a fan brush, and brush your mascara wand with
it, then coat your lashes from the base to the tip, so you're painting your
eyelashes. Then paint your lower ones. They don't clump, and they're all
individually coated."
2. Carrie Underwood
Carrie
believes using different mascaras can build lashes: “I noticed that every
makeup artist I worked with always used more than one mascara, so slowly I
developed this formula. I layer [Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash Mascara for
length, Too Faced Lash Injection Mascara for volume and Maybelline New York
Great Lash Mascara for definition] one on top of the other. I love how it
looks.”
3. Emma Roberts
Emma thinks
applying a brown mascara can create a softer overall look: “I’ve been using
brown mascara and eyeliner lately. I never considered it until just recently,
but it’s so much softer.”
4. Holly Willoughby
Holly heats
up her mascara wand: "I actually tend to curl my eyelashes by heating up
my mascara wand for a couple of seconds with a hairdryer. It really works –
just make sure you don’t heat it up too much and singe your eyelids!"
5. Kate Winslet
Kate uses an
eyeliner brush to get the roots of her lashes: "Put mascara on the roots
of your lashes with a flat-ended eyeliner brush. It makes the whites of the
eyes seem whiter and keeps the lids from appearing too heavy. That's a good
one. I can't get enough of that one, actually!"
