Extracils Mascara

If you want your eyes to look bigger and bolder, wear mascara. In fact, in countries where beauty culture is prominent, no self respecting woman would be caught without mascara. In a nationwide emergency where all mascara was sold out, women resorted to using boot polish on their lashes, something I will not recommend. Imagine getting boot polish into your eyes. I don't know, but to me, sight is more important than vanity.

In any case, what you apply on your lashes should not make them brittle or destroy them. The ideal mascara, besides lengthening, curling and darkening your lashes, it should protect your lashes as well.

Is that asking for too much?

The chanel mascara Becki Newton, whom we know as Amanda, wears, does just that. She uses Chanel Extracil mascara in Brun or brown.

Becki, being blonde, looks best in brown mascara. Your mascara should be darker than your hair color, but for a more natural look, if you are blonde, wear brown mascara. If you are a brunette or have dark hair, wear black mascara. Black mascara, on a blonde, though dramatic, doesn't look so real. Great for night and for turning heads, but it can look a little harsh.

On the other hand, if your hair is black, your lashes, would naturally be black, so a black mascara that lengthens and curls your lashes will give you the long, soft, feathery fringe of lashes that is oh so sexy.

Some say you can save on mascara. Then again, if you can afford a little luxury, do like Amanda and go for Chanel because you know your lashes will be protected.
