Create the best eyelashes possible

It seems to me that I have not yet said anything on the subject of mascara, and this is a terrible oversight on my part. I actually have a whole process that leads to people to ask which brand of false lashes did I use on that shoot? I didn't. Here's my process:

First I use the Paula Dorf Eye Definer brush to line the inside of the top eyelashes.I generally prefer to use the Stila SmudgePots for this purpose.
This is about when you bust out the trusty Shu Uemura Eyelash curler:
Next I layer on the Shiseido Mascara Base using a mascara fan or flat eyeliner brush to apply. Place a tissue under the closed eyelashes, and apply to the top, then have the model/client open half-way, and apply to the underside.

Finally here's the important part: what the best mascara? Some say it's DiorShow. I disagree- DiorShow clumps, the rose oil is irritating, the fibers can get into contacts lenses, and it dries out in 4 to 6 weeks.

Some say it's Benefit's BadGal Lash. This stuff is pretty great. Don't have any complaints about it, other then it too dried out a little faster then I would have liked, but is still a really good all around mascara. This will survive fights with boyfriends, still on the lashes, as long as you blot with a tissue and don't rub your eyes. This one is a very close second.

The number one spot goes to, undoubtedly, Fresh Cosmetics for their SuperNova Mascara. This is hands down the best mascara I have ever used. It lengthens, thickens, and yes, it even curls the most stubborn straight lashes.

Use the mascara fan, or flat brush again to apply in the same manner as the base, then comb out if needed. There you have it. My top mascara secrets. Do with them what you will.
