Just goes to show ya — not even buttercream can stop the appeal learnin’.

It’s a quick-drying formula with a base as well as top coat developed in, as well as it takes me about 5 minutes to do two layers — as well as that includes drying time.

Unexpected appeal Lesson #2: deal with oil is a good friend to your lashes as well as lash curler.

Does your lash curler ever crimp your lashes with an excessively aggressive curl? — like, when the bend is nearly at a crisp 90-degree corner? If it does, try massaging a bit of your preferred deal with oil on your lashes beforehand, as well as the lash curl must be rounded — a lot more like a letter “c” than a hard, ideal angle.

I’ve been doing this all week long with Kahina providing appeal Prickly Pear Seed Oil, as well as my lashes have been curling perfectly! The moisturizing deal with oil makes lash hairs a lot more receptive to a softer curl.

Unexpected appeal Lesson #3: utilize the “leftovers” in your brow brush.

I discovered the very best shortcut for hectic women as well as gents who rush with filling out their brows with an angled brush.

Basically…if as well as occur to have any type of leftover product in your clean head from the day before, just utilize it to fill in your brows now, instead of re-loading your clean with a lot more eyeshadow or brow powder.

I really put two as well as two together as well as figured this out one morning while scrambling to make it to work on time. I couldn’t discover my normal eyeshadow combination with my brow colors as well as just said, “Eff it. I’ll utilize the exact same clean from yesterday.” Lo as well as behold, it was the best amount of color for softly defined natural-looking brows!
