mascara for lashes that won’t hold a curl?

[Alison1234567]

hey everyone, my lashes are pretty long but super straight and won’t hold a curl. they usually start to sag down a couple hours after curling my lashes. does anyone know of a mascara that will keep my lashes curled all day? the mascaras that i’ve tried are: benefit roller lash, glossier lash slick, maybelline lash sensational.

I definitely recommend getting a lash conditioner , I use the one from NYX ( this helps to hydrate and be able to manipulate the shape of your lashes) and a good lash curler ! I highly recommend the one from Shiseido lash curler and the MAC Cosmetics In Extreme Dimension Waterproof Mascara 3D Black

@Alison1234567   Etude House Lash Perm proof  mascara is the best curling mascara followed closely by FlowFushi Mote Mascara Sharp.  
With both if you hold your lashes in your desired curl with a wand until the mascara dries down (15seconds or so) you will have that curl all day.

The only eyelash curler that's been working well for me is the Shiseido one.

As for mascara, I used to use RollerLash, but for some reason I cannot use it anymore, it stings my eyes. 

Right now im using the L'Oreal Telescopic.

What really helps for me is to take my time to curl my lashes, but there are days where it seems like my lashes just wont curl much, it's weird lol

Heating the eyelashe curler is something I have to try soon.

yeah same, my eyelashes sometimes hold a curl but lately have been dropping down 😞 will definitely try the mascara though!

I have the same issue and the Etude House Dr. Mascara Lash Primer really works! It keeps my lashes curled and prevents mascara transfer. It is clear primer that is applied on the lashes prior to mascara. Currently, it is $5.99 on Amazon.

I recommend Shu Eumura eyelash curler with the new fenty mascara! I've been using the benefit Roller Lash for years and recently tried fenty, I was really impressed with it! Very unique brush and worth trying. Lengthened and Kept a curl all day with it!

Hi @Alison1234567!

One mascara that worked in holding curls was the Smashbox Super Fan Lash Lengthening Mascara Standard Size Black - 0.33 oz/ 10 mL .  The formula is very lightweight compared to other mascaras I've used, especially volumizing ones.

Some other tricks I've learned:

• Always heat your lash curler (in your bra, under warm water, etc.) before using them.
• When curling with your lash curler, curl in 3 sections
  • hold for 10 seconds at the base of your lashes, then in the middle, and then at the tip
• When applying mascara and you get to the tip of your lashes, hold the wand at the tip for 5-10 seconds before releasing.  When releasing, make sure you're moving the wand up off your lashes, not outward.  That will help keep lashes curled longer
• For natural looking lashes curl lashes and use Vaseline on your lashes instead of mascara.  Use mascara only at the tip of your lashes.  This is a trick that actually works and holds curls longer than mascara for me.
  • When I'm at home, I like to curl my lashes and just use Vaseline to help train my lashes to stay curled.

@RAWRitsRED  RED, about Vaseline, do you only do it to train your lashes or do you use it as a base and put mascara on top ?

Also, im soon going to be trying one of those 2 mascaras: Lancôme Idole, or Maybelline Sky High

For some reason, the "It Superhero" wont hold a curl anymore, so im back using the L'Oreal Telescopic, but it doesnt define the lashes, and i what i really want is definition and a curl that holds.
