Blue tipped eye lashes

Today I just wanted to share a little makeup trick that I use. I know people tend to think of the 80s if you mention blue mascara, but used carefully it can be very effective.

I have the Rimmel Extra Super Lash mascara in shade 003 Electric Blue.

I apply a couple of coats of my usual black mascara, then apply this blue mascara just to the tips of my upper lashes. This ensures that it doesn't look over-powering and is nice and subtle to use during the day.It is noticeable up close and in a certain light and I get a lot of compliments on my eye makeup when I do this. I think it brings out the blue in my eyes!


It looks really obvious in the picture because of the flash, I promise it's not this "in your face" in the flesh!

  1. I love this look and really want to try it.

    Have you ever tried white eye liner on your lower lid to make your eyes look bigger? x

    1. No, not yet! I have read about it and nearly purchased, just ended up wimping out. Will probably go go nude type colour rather than white if I do ever get round to it like this: http://www.thebeautymilk.com/2012/12/try-it-out-thursday-nude-eyeliner.html
