You will need

• - serum for eyelash growth;
• - dried chamomile and cornflower petals;
• - almond or castor oil;
• - vitamin A or carrot juice.

Instructions

To make your eyelashes fluffy, you need to pay special attention to nutrition and health and only then proceed with local effects. According to experts, it is difficult to deceive nature, so it is impossible to make eyelashes thicker than genetically determined. But if you regularly care for your eyelashes and strengthen them, you can prevent the process of their loss.

In specialized stores you can purchase a special serum that stimulates the natural growth of eyelashes, thickens the hairs and gives them elasticity. It is better to choose a serum that does not contain hormones; it is absolutely safe for health. This preparation contains vitamins, natural oils and keratins. It is better to use the serum at night; in the morning, rinse off with water at room temperature. You can achieve an excellent effect after eight weeks of regular use of the non-hormonal serum; your eyelashes will become thick, fluffy and long.

Antioxidants, immunostimulants, and anti-inflammatory substances contained in chamomile and cornflower strengthen eyelashes, make them thicker, prevent them from fading in the sun, and relieve bruises and swelling under the eyes. Therefore, you need to regularly use infusions of these herbs for lotions. Mix two teaspoons of dried cornflower and chamomile petals, pour a glass of boiling water. Leave in a thermos for 24 hours. Then strain the infusion and soak cosmetic discs in it, apply to your closed eyes for twenty minutes. Don't wash it off. Perform this procedure daily, and soon you will be able to see the first result.

Almond and castor oil enhances eyelash growth and makes them thick. To do this, you need to make oil compresses twice a week. Soak a cotton wool tourniquet in heated almond or castor oil and apply it to the eyelash line. Close your eyes and hold the compress for fifteen minutes. To enhance the effect, you can add a couple of drops of vitamin A to the oil (or mix the oil in equal proportions with carrot juice).

All women dream of being beauties, so that others will give them compliments and look with admiration. And for this, the ladies are ready to do, if not everything, then almost everything. Particular attention is now paid to eyelashes. After all, with the development of the beauty industry, new ways of caring for them have appeared. For example, . But there are old, proven ways to make eyelashes fluffy and expressive without chemicals.

Keep your eyes clean

Makeup is beautiful. However, try to remove all makeup at night, as mascara weighs down your eyelashes and puts additional stress on them. Don't use soap. There are a sufficient number of cosmetics for removing makeup. Mild warm tea nourishes eyelashes. You can wash your face with it in the morning and then apply moisturizer to your eyelids. Nowadays, many women complain about fragility and loss of eyelashes. And there are many reasons for this:

• — lack of care and ecology;
• — building up artificial ones;
• - the products used are of low quality.

Systematic home eyelash care

To keep your eyelashes long, thick and black, try lubricating them with any oil at night. Or you can mix several at once + add vitamins “A” and “E” in oil. For 1 tsp. 10-15 drops of oil. The result will only get better.

Take old mascara, thoroughly rinse the container and brush, and pour balm oil into it. This will make it more convenient for you to wear this mixture on your eyelashes. You can use only the brush, as you wish. Nourishing oils + vitamins incredibly quickly stimulate hair growth, thicken eyelashes, and heal the skin of the eyelids. As a result, eyelashes can become fuller in just a couple of weeks. The main thing is to constantly carry out the necessary procedures:

• - smear your eyelashes with a mascara brush;
• - remove excess oil from hairs;
• - apply the composition from the middle of the eyelash;
• — make it a habit to always do this procedure at night.

The best oils

In the fight for fluffy eyelashes, you will first need oils, as they contain antioxidants, vitamins, amino acids and micro-macroelements. They seem to fill the hair from the inside, and the eyelashes become visually thicker. In addition, the oil penetrates the hair follicle, nourishes the skin of the eye, and has a positive effect on blood circulation. Therefore, after using the oil, the eyelashes become fluffy. You will get maximum benefit from these oils:

• - castor;
• - burdock;
• - almond;
• - olive;
• - argan.

You can easily purchase all these products at the pharmacy and use them to care for your eyelashes. Your eyelashes will become long and elastic in a completely harmless way.

Home eyelash tinting (coloring)

We recommend using natural henna (or Brow Henna) as a homemade eyelash dye - this ideal dye will not harm your eyelashes, but will only strengthen them, make them fluffier and darker. The procedure takes 20 minutes, the color will last on the hairs for more than a month, and the cost is low. Be sure to try it to save time in the morning and always be beautiful!

Large volume definitely won’t hurt your eyelashes. But what can you do to have the same long, luxurious and fluffy eyelashes as Malvina or at least like Hollywood actresses? Modern cosmetics manufacturers offer mascaras with various effects. How not to get confused in such diversity and make the right choice?

Eyelashes are the most important touch in makeup

Eyelash type

Before choosing mascara, you need to determine your eyelash type:

• straight or curly
• thin or voluminous

Each type of eyelash has its own solution to the problem. If you have thin and straight eyelashes, choose a mascara that adds either volume or length. It should be noted here that we should not believe advertising that promises us both length and volume at the same time. There are no such funds.

When mascara adds length and volume, you can end up with extra particles that look like debris on your eyelashes. We don't need this. Especially if you have thin eyelashes, they can stick together, resembling spider legs that stick out in different directions. Agree that this cannot be called a good result.

Fluffy eyelashes are a gift from nature

To be fair, it should be said that voluminous or long eyelashes are appropriate for both daytime and evening makeup. The main thing is that they are made up correctly, without lumps, unnecessary layering and marks on the upper or lower eyelids. How to achieve this?

Choosing the type of brush for fluffy eyelashes

Experts say that mascara for fluffy eyelashes should be chosen based on the brush. It is she who determines up to 80% of the final result. Sometimes manufacturers write information on the packaging that may differ from the effect that the mascara actually has. The main advice is not to believe advertising, but trust only your eyes and your own experience.

• First type of brush: with soft fibers, randomly located

It adds volume. This brush slightly blinds the eyelashes at the roots, forming a small “plate” and creating a volume effect. This mascara is perfect for eyeliner or smokey eye makeup.

• Second type of brush: clearly structured

Individual bristles-teeth are clearly visible on it. This brush combines 2-3 hairs into one whole and gives length to our eyelashes. Length is also added by special particles contained in such mascara. They seem to stick to the ends of the hairs, making them longer. Thanks to this product, you can make your eyelashes longer by 1.5-2 mm. As you may have guessed, “3 times longer eyelashes” is just a publicity stunt.

• Third type of brush: has medium density and randomly located short bristles

Suitable if you have short and straight eyelashes. This brush will give your eyelashes a rich color and completely color them to the very ends. Due to this, your eyes will become more expressive, and your gaze will become more droopy.

The effect of applying a particular mascara depends on its brush.

Professional makeup artists advise drawing the growth line of fluffy eyelashes. But be careful here: if your appearance type is not contrasting, such “arrows” are inappropriate in daytime makeup. To do this, take an eyebrow brush and draw a line with brown or gray shadows.

Which mascara to choose?

• If you have dark hair and dark, well-pigmented eyelashes, you are unlikely to need mascara for volume - it is better to take a lengthening one.
• For thin, soft and slightly curled eyelashes, choose a mascara that will simply color them. You shouldn't take mascara for volume - it can blind your eyelashes, and long-lasting mascara will make them heavy and they will droop down. And if your eyelashes “look” down, curl them a little before painting with special curlers. You can use any mascara.
• If your eyelashes are very short and thin, you can try using two mascaras separately: first for volume, and then for length. By no means in reverse order.
• As for the consistency of the mascara itself, voluminous mascaras are a little thicker, while lengthening mascaras, on the contrary, are more liquid.

If, when squeezing the brush, you see a small tail at its tip, this mascara has a liquid consistency, and if you don’t notice such a tail, you have voluminous mascara.

How often should you change mascara?

Experts advise using mascara for no more than one month for two reasons:

1. Harmful bacteria begin to develop in it, and the product itself begins to dry out.
2. The black sand that forms on the rim gets into the mascara and creates lumps on the eyelashes.

How to apply mascara?

Mascara looks very beautiful when the eyelashes in the outer corners of the eyes are longer than others. To create this effect, start applying mascara from the outer corners, then color the middle part, and then the inner corners of the eyes. After that, we go back: paint the middle part again, paint the outer corners well.

If you want to add visual volume to sparse eyelashes, use a brow brush to draw a light line along the lower lash line. It should resemble a shadow reflected by your fluffy eyelashes. By the way, if you have them, then due to the contrast you will make them less noticeable.

After applying tone, powder, shadows and other bulk products, small particles may remain on the eyelashes, which form lumps when stained with mascara. Therefore, they need to be removed before applying mascara. This can be done simply with your fingers.

As for the actual technique of applying mascara, it is worth mentioning the most common mistakes.

• Firstly, you shouldn’t “pull” your eyelashes to the side with a brush.
• Secondly, you cannot paint your eyelashes horizontally - such actions will immediately blind them. Bring the brush to the roots of the eyelashes, twist it a little and lift it sharply, painting the entire length. You need to paint quickly so that lumps do not form.

If several eyelashes do merge, you can carefully separate them with a needle. Do not apply mascara too thickly or in several layers. Because of this, our eyelashes become overloaded, dry out and, as a result, deteriorate. To strengthen fluffy eyelashes and make them healthy, wash off the mascara as usual.

Eyelash extensions are not a procedure for everyone. It thins your own hair and is expensive, and the result does not always look natural. Instead of wasting money and time visiting beauty salons, it is better to figure out how to make fluffy eyelashes at home.

A curler is a device that curls eyelashes and makes them more voluminous. To obtain the desired effect, use it as follows:

1. The curler is slightly heated with a hairdryer and the eyelashes are clamped with it. Act carefully (if you accidentally touch your eyelid, you can get burned).
2. Apply 1 layer of mascara and again clamp the hairs with tongs. The peeking ends are painted over with mascara.

Dyed eyelashes are very vulnerable and easily damaged, so you need to work with them carefully.

Powdering

Few people know that powder can greatly enhance the effect of any mascara. First, the hairs are powdered with a brush or a regular sponge, then colored and curled with a curler (if necessary). As a result, eyelashes look longer and fluffier. No lumps appear.

Natural oils

Vegetable oils accelerate hair growth, making them more voluminous and fluffy. Women have been using some of them for several centuries, and a good example of this is inexpensive and effective castor oil. To make eyelashes thicker, apply the product daily before bed for 2-3 months. To do this, use an eyelash brush or a regular cotton swab.

If desired, castor oil can be replaced with other oils - burdock, olive, peach, sea buckthorn. A good effect is achieved by combining several products or adding liquid vitamins E and A to them (a couple of drops is enough).

Proper care

To keep eyelashes lush, you need to remove makeup daily. Particular attention should be paid to the roots of the hairs and the space between them, as this is where most of the cosmetics remain. Failure to follow these recommendations will cause the eyelashes to become weak and begin to fall out.

Dietary supplements will help strengthen eyelashes from the inside. Taking vitamins E and B promotes active hair growth and an increase in their thickness.

Thus, you can make your eyelashes lush without resorting to expensive salon procedures.

Long and fluffy eyelashes adorn a woman and make her look more open and expressive. Find out the most effective ways to care for them at home.

To get beautiful eyelashes, you don’t have to visit beauty salons every day. There are many effective remedies that can make hair thicker and longer at home.

Use castor oil

Ordinary castor oil, which is sold in every pharmacy, is an effective and budget-friendly product for eyelash care. Apply the oil every evening - and after 10-14 days you will notice that your eyelashes have acquired a darker color, become thicker and longer.

Don't forget about serums

Serums and other cosmetics for eyelash growth can be applied under mascara, then they will act throughout the day. The effect is simply amazing: your eyelashes will become fluffy, long and healthy.

By the way, you shouldn’t buy the most expensive products. Budget cosmetic brands also have decent products in their arsenal.

Buy two-phase mascara

If you urgently need to give your eyelashes volume and extra length, use two-phase mascara. First, apply a white base to your eyelashes: it will separate them, make them thicker and longer. Then cover the hairs with black or colored mascara.

Take your vitamins

Vitamins A and E are essential for the health and beauty of eyelashes. They are sold at the pharmacy in the form of capsules that need to be taken daily for 2 months. After another 2 months the course can be repeated.

By the way, vitamins have a beneficial effect not only on eyelashes, but also on the condition of skin, hair and nails.

Use your eyelash curler correctly

If you curl your eyelashes with an eyelash curler, do so before applying mascara. Otherwise, fragile hairs can be damaged or broken. To create a more pronounced bend, slightly heat the pads of the curling iron with a hairdryer.

Powder your eyelashes

If you want to create the effect of false eyelashes, apply a little loose powder to the hairs. Brush off any excess with a makeup brush and then apply mascara.

Make sure that the layer of powder is not too thick, otherwise your eyelashes will look like spider legs.

Make tea compresses

Tea is not only a delicious invigorating drink, but also an excellent cosmetic product. It works great on dark circles under the eyes and also strengthens eyelashes. Soak a cotton pad in strong cold tea, place it on your eyelids and leave for 15 minutes. Repeat this procedure 1-2 times a week.

Comb your eyelashes

Buy a special eyelash comb. As a rule, they are produced together with an eyebrow brush. Once your eyelashes are completely dry, comb them gently to remove excess mascara and separate any clumping lashes.

Change your mascara regularly

The service life of an open tube of mascara is no more than 3 months. During this time, the product thickens and loses its basic qualities. You should not try to dilute mascara with water or oil; you will not achieve a good effect with these methods. In addition, you can cause allergies or infection. Throw away expired mascara without regret.

Get a massage

Every day, morning and evening, do a light eyelid massage. Close your eyes and lightly press on your eyeballs with your fingers, walking along the eyelash growth area. A procedure lasting 1-2 minutes will be enough to improve blood circulation. Never rub your eyes during a massage: this can damage the delicate skin of your eyelids and hair follicles.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated in caring for eyelashes. Follow these tips and you'll never need false eyelashes or eyelash extensions.
