Why do lashes sometimes fall out? How to find the perfect mascara? How to give eyelashes a natural volume and length? How to make eyelashes long and lush? These and many other questions were answered by experts and told about the rules for caring for eyelashes and the subtleties of carcass selection.
The length, shape and color of the eyelashes depend on the genes. If from childhood the eyelashes are short, they will not grow longer with the years. And with the wrong care can only deteriorate, ponder and even begin to fall out. The main secrets of lush and long eyelashes, like that of Malvina, are vitamins, delicate care and cosmetic tricks.
Eat your eyelashes
The most useful substances for the health of eyelashes are vitamins A, E, provitamin B5, panthenol-D and ceramides. Because of the deficiency of these vitamins, eyelashes can become dull and weak. But not always it is connected with the general avitaminosis. In the body, these vitamins can be enough, but for various reasons, they simply do not reach the eyelashes. Therefore, it is better to use vitaminized products locally, applying them to the eyelashes. These include castor and burdock oils - their formula is rich in vitamins A and E, responsible for the rapid growth and structure of the hair. Apply the oil carefully, distributing it along the line of growth of the eyelashes, but so that it does not hit the mucous eyes. For this procedure, it is best to use a clean brush - an applicator from an old carcass. But there are specialized means for eyelashes. For example, the strengthening gel Lipocil from the French brand Talika was developed by an ophthalmologist and is designed specifically to stimulate the growth of eyelashes, or a firming agent for eyelashes of the brand Mavala. Useful for eyelashes vitamins and oils are often included in the formula of carcass. All components that make up the cosmetic product are indicated on the label in order of decreasing percentage.
Properly remove makeup
According to statistics, up to 70% of the dropped cilia we lose when removing makeup. Of course, if we are talking about 1-2 eyelashes, you should not worry. Like all the hair on the head or body, eyelashes are also updated. But if there are several eyelashes left after the removal of makeup with an enviable regularity, then the problem still exists. Often it is associated with aggressive methods of removing mascara. Do not rub the remedy very much in the eyelid, you can not fray your eyelashes - from this they are injured. To wash off ordinary mascara with the help of warm water and foam for washing it is theoretically possible, but it is practically difficult and painless for your eyelashes, it is better to use special lotions, emulsions and tonics. And that the mascara is better and more quickly washed off, the wadded disk moistened with a clearing agent is necessary for some seconds to put to eyelashes.
Select mascara
When choosing it is necessary to be guided first of all by the individual features of the eyelashes. Since the eyelashes will make long and magnificent only "correct" mascara. Volumetric carcasses are suitable for weakened, rare, but fairly long eyelashes. A good result is a "double" mascara with a white base. The brush applicator and the formula of the carcass are directed to the same effect. For bulk carcass applicator should be fluffy, and its bristles - densely planted to each other.
To better twist the eyelashes, the brush-applicator of the extension carcass should be with a short stubble and a concave shape. Extension mascara is recommended to be applied by "twirling" movements, fixing the curled eyelashes with a brush. Recently, instead of the usual brush in the extension carcass, straight, thin comb-applicators are often used. Thin denticles evenly distribute mascara from the base to the tips, which makes the lashes even longer. But compared to the concave brush, the combs are less bent by the eyelashes.
In the waterproof carcass there are no particularly harmful additives, it simply needs to be washed off with an oil-based remedy, and such mascara rarely happens with an additional effect.
TIPS OF EXPERTS:
To add volume:
"If you are tired or have dark circles under your eyes, apply mascara only on the upper eyelashes - this make-up visually reduces the blue under the eyes," advise the make-up brand Clinique.
Color or black?
"The classic shades of carcass black and brown are always relevant and will harmoniously blend with the fashionable shades from the latest makeup collections, and color mascara is more like an accessory for special occasions," says Marina Udalova, make-up artist L'Oreal, Paris.
How to store mascara?
"Shelf life of the carcass is 3 years in a closed form and only 3-4 months in the open. In order to extend the "life span" of mascara, it is recommended to wash the brush once a week. Do not put a tube of mascara under the open rays of the sun, do not take it with you in severe frost, mascara can deteriorate under the influence of temperature fluctuations, "advises Nadezhda Vasilieva, make-up artist Gamma Cosmetics.

WHAT IS IN THE SALONS?
Eyelash extension.
In the beauty salons use eyelashes made of natural silk or mink fur. They are attached to the very base of the eyelashes and fixed with special glue. Artificial eyelashes are selected based on their natural location: longer ones are attached closer to the outer corner of the eye, shorter - at the inner corner of the eye. Thus, it is possible to substantially correct the incision of the eyes. In addition, the extended eyelashes have a rich color, and they do not need to be tinted with mascara. Unfortunately, the "lifetime" of these eyelashes is the same as that of natural eyelashes: 3-4 weeks.
