What will look best with your complexion? What will complement with your outfit and wardrobe in general?

Mascaras for eyes are available in a wide range of colors and styles, from blackest black and dark brown to lighter shades of both, or even fun colors shades like blues and greens. Most times black and brown hues are most appropriate and work well with any skin tone, eye color and choice of wardrobe.

Do you feel that your eyelashes are very blonde or not so noticeable? Do you often feel like you have to glob a lot makeup onto them just to make them stand out?

If this problem seems to haunt you, try a lash thickening mascara, or possibly one that lengthens and thickens. A thicker formula will be better for your lashes than a product that cakes on layer after layer. Even if your eyelashes are still a bit subtle, you can always further accent your eyes with eyeliner and darker eyeshadow. If you still seem to have trouble making your eyes more defined, consider checking into fake eyelashes for special occasions.
