Tips For Finding The Right Mascara

Shopping for mascara can be a difficult process because there are many types available. What makes this even more difficult is that a brand that looks good on your friend may not look good on you. This is due to several factors including hair color, skin tone, and the color of your eyes. It mostly comes down to personal preference and finding something that you like to wear. There are several tips for figuring out which type of mascara is best for you.

 Determining which mascara is right for you depends on several factors. Consider the natural state of your lashes. Are they long and sparse or think and short? This state of your lashes has an effect on the type of mascara that you should choose. You may also want to think about how your lashes react to mascara and how they exist without it.

Once you have thought about how your lashes exist naturally, think about your experience with mascara. What kinds have you tried and what did you like best? Obviously when you use mascara you can achieve longer lashes, but do you like your lashes to feel natural?

 Mascara is the final addition to any makeup application, and it can be very beneficial to your look. The best way to find the right mascara is to think about all the different issues brought up and to try them all out. In order to help make the process of choosing mascara easier, the following list should help you find the best choice.

 Price

 Mascara, like any other cosmetic product, comes in a wide variety of prices. You may be on a budget and this can help narrow down the brands that you can consider. Price is a very important factor when choosing the right mascara for you. It is important to remember that the best mascara may not necessarily be the one that costs a lot of money. Talk to your friends, read reviews online and see what they use or go to the local drugstore and try some of the affordable mascaras there. You may find that many of the least expensive formulas work the best.

 Color

 The color of your mascara is also important. Think about your personal style and the color of your eyes when selecting mascara. Choosing the color depends highly on the color of your hair. Brunettes usually look best with black mascara while blondes and redheads tend to look best with brown mascaras.

 Conservative colors are suggested for the workplace. However, if you want to have a fun night out on the town, go for a color that complements your eyes. You can try a purple for green eyes and if you want something with a little extra kick, try mascara with a little glitter.

 Formulation

 The type of lashes that you have may determine the formulation of the mascara that is ideal for you. Some lashes are brittle and shed more than others. Many types of mascara contain vitamins and conditioners. If you have sensitive or dry lashes, you may opt for mascara that conditions your lashes as it lengthens and darkens them. These formulas can prevent lash loss as you use the mascara day in and day out. Hypoallergenic, fiber free and unscented mascaras are also a good idea if you have sensitive eyes.

 Type

 In general, there are five types of mascaras, which include lengthening, thickening, waterproof, water-soluble, and non-clumping. Choosing the right mascara for you depends on what your specific needs are. If your lashes are thick but short, try for the lengthening type. If you have sparse lashes, go for the thickening. Waterproof mascara is a great choice if you are attending an event such as a wedding where you may have a chance of crying. It is also good to wear if it is raining. Water-soluble and non-clumping are both for your convenience. If you do not wish to use makeup remover, use water-soluble.

 The Brush

 The brush within the mascara tube is just as important as all the other factors such as the type, formula, and color. The type of brush determines how the mascara is applied to the lashes. Curved brushes usually coat more lashes at the same time, for better coverage.

Straight brushes are ideal for applying mascara to the corners of your eyes, which are typically difficult to reach. If you find one style brush works better for you but the formula you love best does not use it, you can always buy replacement brushes at your local beauty supply shop.

 Choosing the right mascara can be a difficult process but it does not have to be like this. You need to remember that everybody is different and what works for one person may not work for you. Consider
the factors such as your hair color, skin tone and the color of your eyes because these can help you decide which color range to try out.

Consider these tips next time you go shopping for mascara and it should be much easier to find something that looks great on you.
