You don’t need to have expert false lash application skills to achieve a thick, long, AND dramatic lash look. The right volumizing mascara will do just that — no glue required. It will ensure your lashes are anything but subtle. We’re talking about buildable formulas that are packed with pigment and result in little to no flaking throughout the day.
Before we get into some of our favorite mascaras, we have a quick application tip for you to help your lashes look as voluminous as possible. New York City-based makeup artist Joseph Carrillo says that, before swiping the wand all the way through your lashes, start by wiggling the bristles into the base of your lashes and lightly stamping the mascara against your waterline. This simple step will help even the sparsest fringe look instantly fuller by filling in the gaps between your lashes. Afterward, you can proceed with your usual mascara application technique.
