Estee Lauder Mascara
Until now I had not been introduced to the joys of Estee Lauder Mascara. I simply thought it was just like every other mascara on the market, good but nothing extraordinary. To be honest I thought Chanel was the only company who would ever fulfill my true mascara fantasies. Well…Chanel still holds its own, I’m sure it always will, but there is a new mascara in my collection and at the moment I wouldn’t use anything else!
The trick to having mascara give you amazing lashes is to enhance what you have, rather than try to get something you haven’t got and never will. If you have long lashes, lengthen and curl them! If you have short lashes make them thick and curly. That’s why I have been using Estee Lauder’s mascara that is wonderful for long lashes and my mom has been using the Estee Lauder Mascara for shorter thick lashes. My mom and I went straight to the source, the makeup artists at the Estee Lauder counter in Saks Fifth Avenue, Beverly Hills. This is the inside scoop you won’t find on Estee Lauder’s website, they told us everything we needed to know to get the lashes of our dreams. Together we are here to tell you how much we love these mascaras!
Estee Lauder More Than Mascara: This is the mascara I’ve been trying for the last four weeks. According to the makeup artist this mascara is great for long lashes and adds curl. I was a little skeptical because I am lately always disappointed with my mascara results. Disappointment be gone! This stuff is my new secret and love, if I only had time to apply one makeup item, this would be it. This mascara accentuates the full length of my lashes and curls them perfectly, leaving my eyes wide open and gorgeous. There is no clumping, sticking or flaking and I am ready to go with one coat and a few little finishing strokes on the ends. One of my new favorites!
Estee Lauder Illusionist Waterproof: My mom has been testing this mascara for the last four weeks. She found this mascara to be really great for a dressy look, it thickens, doesn’t clump and it separates really well. The black is fabulous, a really deep black, it curls well and with a couple of coats it lengthens too. The waterproof aspect is great and yet it is easy to wash off at night. This is now the mascara she uses when she wants to look her absolute best! It makes her eyes look so good that she won’t even waste it on a day when she’s just loafing around, she saves it for when she wants to look special and her most fabulous!
The secret to these mascaras is in the brush, which is why it is very important to apply your mascara using the new application techniques, the old “just sweep the brush up your lashes” doesn’t work anymore with the new brush technologies. To learn how to apply your mascara using the new technique see my article, Mascara Tips, you’ll love the way this makes your lashes look.
If you love a very deep rich black the Estee Lauder Mascaras are what you want. Of all the big name mascara and makeup brands Estee Lauder has the blackest black on the market.
