We love mascara – we rarely leave the house without it and it’s usually a handbag staple for spontaneous after-work drinks (well it was before lockdown at least!) The thing is though, being Chinese, our lashes are incredibly straight, short, thin and lacking in volume. A common occurrence among many Asian men and women. Even when we use eyelash curlers and apply a single coat of mascara, our lashes will naturally start to drop and we end up with straight lashes again. The only we can guarantee long-lasting volume is via professional lash lift treatments. If you’re in the same boat as us, whether you have Asian lashes or you’ve just not been blessed with long curly lashes, we’ve recently tried and tested seven different mascaras from popular brands, including NARS and Charlotte Tilbury. Particularly those which promise volume, curl and length.
