Mascara: Makeup lovers, what you need to know before applying mascara
Mascara is a must-have no matter what the occasion is. A humble mascara works like magic. Wearing it to work, parties or even gym, may affect your delicate lashes if not taken care of. We usually forget to take off the mascara but they do more harm if left unattended.
As per beauty experts, mascara is known to dry out lashes and also thin them out.
If you want to take care of your lashes here are some lash care habits that are important no matter how often you wear mascara.
Moisturizing:
Our eyelashes need hydration and moisturisation and that is possible with a benefit oil. Make sure to use coconut oil, castor oil, jojoba oil or even vaseline.
The point is to form a thin layer on your lashes which will help you prevent impacts of overuse of mascara. Avoid chemical based moisturisers or lotions as they can cause harm to your eyelashes.
Mascara primer:
If you are a regular mascara user, having a mascara primer is a must. Not only does it strengthen your lashes but also protect you. Mascara primers are known to create a better application.
Pick the right one:
Eyes are the most sensitive part of the body and extra care needs to be taken to make sure to always go for a known brand and ophthalmologically tested mascara in order to prevent the side effects.
Avoid products that contain harmful ingredients like formaldehyde, synthetic and tar dyes.
Check expiry date:
Always check the expiry date, mascaras have a shorter shelf life and it is important to replace them every six months. So check your mascara expiry date and save your lashes.
Gently remove: 
It is vital to remove your makeup before you hit the bed as it causes harm to your skin. Use micellar water to remove makeup as it doesn’t irritate the skin. Use a cotton pad to wipe the mascara. Do not tuck and rub on your lashes as it can cause your lashes to break.
Watch your diet:
It is important to take care of your lashes externally. But your diet is equally important in maintaining your skin and lashes. A diet that is loaded with nutrients like Vitamin D and Vitamin E. Consume a healthy diet, drink a lot of water.
