Mascara

As far as mascara up goes, to know what products you want to buy really depends on what kind of look you're going for.  Some women like a natural look where the makeup only accentuates their features.  Others like a more dramatic approach.  For the ones who prefer to keep it simple, I suggest products such as "Great Lash" mascara from Maybelline NY (and for those of you who know me, know that I will be suggesting a lot of Maybelline products..lol) Great Lash is really good if you don't want or need a whole lot of volume. If you do need more length and/or volume, or if you like the dramatic look, the best mascara that I've tried (and I still refuse to use anything else) is Maybelline NY "Falsies". It's truly phenomenal mascara..but beware..it takes a few coats, and some patience to get the look you want.  If you have the desire to have amazing lashes, it's worth it. Keep applying, and don't let it dry between coats.
