There are some questions that appear constantly and there is no clear answer to them. So, the question, “what is the best mascara?”, Too, often remains unanswered or answers so much that the eyes run wide. I'll try to orient you in the world of mascara.
Where to start when choosing a mascara? From what we have. Rate your eyelashes. Just do not slander - try to evaluate objectively. How long and thick they are - these are two characteristics of eyelashes, from which we will build on the choice of mascara. In addition to these, there are, of course, others: how much curling is necessary for eyelashes, for example, or the color of eyelashes. But the main, in my opinion, are the first two.
If your eyelashes are thick enough, but shortish, the best mascara in your case is lengthening. It works with length. Its composition contains special ingredients, thanks to which the eyelashes are separated and lengthened - most often these are nylon or silk fibers. The lengthening mascara has a special form of brush, due to which, when stained at the tips of the eyelashes, mascara remains in an amount sufficient to lengthen. This is usually a spiral shape. In the shops you can see double mascara - first we apply a white or transparent mass on the eyelashes - we model the eyelashes, and then we cover them with dark pigment.
If your eyelashes have no problems with the length, but want to add volume, you should pay your attention to volume mascara. She will make eyelashes fluffy. This is the best mascara that constantly turns into “spider legs”, that is, they are glued together several times into one big one. If there are few eyelashes, then it just looks disastrous. The carcass contains special wax, which when applied envelops the eyelashes, and it seems that there are more of them. They are fixed at a certain distance from each other, and so the visible volume is obtained. Such mascara can be recognized by a barrel-shaped brush or by a brush with bristles of various lengths - for the best effect.
The effect of eyelashes “like after tongs” can be achieved with a special twisting brush. As a rule, the composition of the carcass does not differ from the composition of the lengthening or bulk, but the brush is curved. Eyelashes are lifted, and a brush fixes them. The look is expressive and open.
Mascaras with the effect of false eyelashes are very popular today, largely due to the popularity of extensions. These are the same universal carcasses, but with a more pronounced effect. You can often find good reviews on mascara with the effect of false eyelashes from Yves Saint Laurent.
Colored carcasses look great in the summer, play in the sun in blue, purple, pink and many more shades. There are calmer browns and grays for every taste.
And, of course, we will not forget that the best mascara for any event is waterproof. If you are going to a wedding, paint your eyelashes with such mascara and you won’t have to check your make-up at every touching moment (there are many of them at weddings).
There are carcasses combining both volume and length - universal. If you could not see any obvious problems on your eyelashes - most likely you need such mascara. She, as the name implies, and lengthens and adds volume to the eyelashes.
Now the choice of mascara is huge, there is an affordable mass class and an elite suite. And constantly there are more and more new brands that declare themselves. For example, relatively recently, the market for decorative cosmetics blew up the brand Vivienne Szabo. It has very affordable prices, and the quality, judging by the reviews, is excellent.
I’ll try to summarize and give some statistics. According to customer reviews, the best mascara with the effect of lengthening is Telescopic from L`OREAL from the mass market and Iconic from Dior from luxury.
The best mascara with volume effect - MAYBELLINE Volume Express - is not the first year, by the way, among the leaders, has a lot of variations, and Lancome - Hypnose drama from luxury.
