We all love mascara. It's always fun to find one that works well. Some will leave your lashes stuck together. While others won't give any volume. The best lashes are ones that look long and natural. While expensive mascara's can do wonders you may want to check out some cheaper brands. Wet N Wild $3 as well as Rimmel London $9, Prestige $7 and Maybelline $5-$8 offer some of the best mascara's. The top rated mascara is Bare Escentuals bareMinerals Flawless Definition Mascara at $18.
You can also try the Rapidlash serums as well as Latisse. The main ingredient in Latisse is Bimatoprost which is a chemical used to grow lashes. Travoprost is an ingredient in Travatan similar to Bimatoprost. Travoprost has been known to work better than Bimatoprost. The L'Oreal version has neither of these, but it does have some proteins as well as vitamin b which helps in eyelash growth. Elle, Glamour and Vogue rated Marvelash Eyelash Growth Serum as the #1 eyelash treatment. It contains biotin, panthenol, pumpkin seed extract, pomegranate extract, cucumber extract, and white tea leaf extract. This combination is proven to grow your lashes. Not only is it safe, but all natural as well.
Eyelash extensions can also be used to get the fullness and thickness without using anything but surgical glue and synthetic lashes. You can also use mink lashes, but are very pricey. There are several colors you can use depending on how wild you want to go. A full set takes about an hour or two and they apply 30-80 lashes per eye. In order to receive this treatment you need to go to a licensed esthetician. If you do it yourself you want to make sure to take an eyelash extension course to be able to know how to apply the lashes safely and effectively. Most beauty salons offer this type of procedure. Your local esthetician can provide proper care as well as the best eyelash treatment available.
When using any lash enhancers you want to speak with your doctor or esthetician before doing any treatments.
Mineral Make-up:
Mineral make-up is free of preservatives, talc, oil, fragrance and other chemicals. This make-up is made up of zinc oxide, titanium dioxide, and 100% micronized minerals. They are free of the chemical found in most make-up. These chemicals are known to cause inflammation and irritation. One of the great minerals in this make-up is iron. It absorbs heat which cause pores to sweat. Most mineral powders have an SPF of 15 or higher. The advantage to this make-up is it actually improves the look and feel of skin. It gives a youthful glow and a natural finish. No cake face over here. It also helps in covering wrinkles, broken capillaries, fine lines, and red spots. It also helps to reflect the sunlight due the minerals which reflect the light like a mirror.
Mineral eye shadows also has great qualities. They have more pigmentation therefore reflects the light. It has all the same great effects that mineral foundation has. The fine lines and wrinkles on your eyes are likely to disappear with the use of this eye shadow. It reflects the sun as well and we all know UV rays are what causes wrinkles in the first place. The colors are intense and long lasting. You may want to use a primer to set the powdered minerals in place. You can even mix the shadow with water to create a deeper more vibrant look.
Minerals are a part of the earth. They breathe life into our skin. Treat your skin to some mineral make-up. The benefits are wonderful and will help your skin look and feel radiant as ever.
