I LOVE a dramatic look, without too much fuss, so I always apply mascara on both my upper and lower lashes. Sometimes it can get a little messy, depending on the size of the mascara wand. If it’s too big, chances are, the mascara will usually end up under my eye. Some beauty experts suggest using a business card or credit card, when applying mascara to avoid that problem, but I’ve found a better solution using dental picks.
Check out the video below to see how it works:
Dentek Dental Picks have a bristled end that help with applying mascara, separating lashes and getting ride of clumps. You can find these at your local drugstore, but I purchased a pack of 100 at the Dollar Store.
So what do you think? Do you apply mascara on your lower lashes? Would you use dental picks?
Feature Friday :: Braxton Family Values
Last season, I was really disappointed in the Braxton sisters hair and makeup choices (read Braxton Family Makeup Faux Pas). From the bad wigs, to the excessive amounts of blush, it all just seemed too over the top, and with divas like Toni and Tamar, I expected so much more.
Well, I finally peeped an episode of this season’s Braxton Family Values . I was happy to see some improvement with the sisters. It seems as though they learned a lot from last season — better wigs/weave, and they even toned down the heavy makeup, just a little. The award for most improved has to go to both with Towanda and Traci. Those two have come a LONG way.
Remember in the first season, Towanda was always rocking the two ponytails and/or micro minis and frosty eye shadow. Well, with season 2, Towanda has stepped it up with curly locs and opted for more warm and neutral tones.
Traci was all over the place during the first season. She was another fan of frosty eye shadow and her wigs just weren’t up-to-par as a professional cosmetologist. During this season, almost like an inconsistent boyfriend, sometimes she gets it right and the other times, well, she doesn’t.
What do you think?
