4 Ways to Get Major Lash Volume

When it comes to eyelashes, there is one iconic beauty I turn to for inspiration: Twiggy.

Twiggy's Eyelashes

This supermodel has been rocking the big, fanned out eyelashes since her early days as a Warhol muse. Adding fullness and length to your eyelashes takes special products and tools just like your hair.

A simple way to add va-voom to those lashes is with mascara that also contains base product. Lancôme offers a super enhancing mascara base that you can use before the colored mascara to add height and curl to your lashes. Think of it as a primer for your lashes! It helps mascara stay put on the individual lash, meaning less smudges and flaking throughout the day.

The same way you use heat to curl your hair, you can use heat to curl and volumize your lashes. Both the Panasonic Heated Eyelash Curler and the Talika Heated Eyelash curler are popular with consumers. The Panasonic Heated Eyelash Curler is a heated rotating comb that styles and combs for a natural or well defined curl. As always, take extra caution with anything hot you are putting near your eyes.

The Talika Eyelash Curler is a more traditional option. This tool is very similar to that clamp style eyelash curler, only heated to give a more intense curl to your lashes.  These two tools take your usual eyelashes to the next level by giving you maximum curl.

If you are looking for something a little easier to incorporate into your makeup routine,  try Buxom mascara from Sephora. It’s a great mascara with a wavy wand to prevent clumping and add fullness and length to your look for the full on fanned out look.

On the other hand, you can go all out by getting eyelash extensions. These tend to be pricier (over $100), but do have staying power beauty enthusiasts long for.

What is your go-to product for adding volume and curl to your lashes?
