Mix and Match

I have a new favorite beauty trick. I have a lot of mascara because I like the lightweight daytime look one gives me, the thick, black nighttime look another gives me, or the long, spidery lashes another gives me. So, I collect mascaras and choose which one to wear based on the events of my day.

About a week ago, I decided I didn't know why I had to choose between the lengthening properties of one mascara and the thickening properties of another. Why don't I just start combining them? So that's exactly what I've done. One coat of this, another coat of that, and - voila! - long, dark lashes that I couldn't ask just one mascara to provide.

My favorite combination is Benefit Bad Gal Lash (because it makes my lashes so, so long) and MAC Fibre Rich Lash (because it makes them so thick). Try it with any combination of mascaras you have and come back to report to us what your favorite combos are.
