I have Loreal Double end mascara and i was wondering, is step one clear mascara?
if not, how do i make it not flake and give me a fake black eye???
I use my eyelashes curlers on clean lashes and then apply the primer to one set of lashes and within seconds apply the black mascara from the other end. This is fiddly and at first I got my hands covered in mascara as I forgot to turn the wand around. White mascara is difficult to see so beware of coating the lashes with too much as then the primer will go clumpy and consequently so will the applied black mascara. I stand by the window in a natural light for the first stage and found it disconcerting to see a set of white lashes-as if I was heading for frostbite. Don't do as I did and apply the white primer to upper and lower lashes all in one go. Of course it is simpler to do it that way because of having to keep changing ends which is a nuisance but I soon got used to applying mascara using a completely different process. I believe the secret is to apply the black mascara on top of the primer when it is still moist ensuring clump free coverage.
With just one coat of the black mascara, applied easily from the root to the tip, the effect was very impressive. My lashes seemed to double in length and thickness without looking spidery and there was no evidence of clumping-my lashes remained silky looking and individual. One coat was enough for day-wear and a double application is great for night time. Reluctantly confessing that I don't always remove my make-up when I go to bed (Sluttish I know) I woke up in the morning with this mascara completely intact and not a smudge to be seen. The L'Oreal Double Extension Mascara passed the brittle test too as my lashes also felt and looked soft even after sleeping. Using my usual face cleansing wipes every trace of mascara was removed without rubbing, although not all face cleansing wipes removed it, just the ones that claim to remove make-up and certainly not the exfoliating wipes-steer clear of those.
