I have a whole eyelash routine girl, are you ready for this? lol

First, I curl my lashes. If you curl them up, they automatically look longer than if you leave them alone.
Second, I apply a lash primer. I like Lancôme Cils Booster XL, but whatever works for you is great. This will help coat your lashes before you apply any mascara at all, so that they're longer when you finally do apply a product.
Third, I apply a mascara. Currently I'm loving the Per-Fekt Lash Perfection Gel. It has a nice, skinny brush and it applies really nicely without clumping, though I wipe the brush off a bit beforehand. It's also really great for your lashes, it contains conditioning ingredients, and it's super black so it looks really nice.

Another quick trick is to line the waterline on your upper lid, because that will make your lashes look darker at the base and give the illusion of thicker lashes. I'd be happy to show you a before and after picture of my lashes with this routine!

For your lower lashes, apply whatever mascara you like, though I prefer one, again, with a skinny brush, and then I use an Almay Makeup Remover Q Tip. I put it actually under my lashes, swipe a little, and then rotate it downwards to even out my lashes. It removes all the excess that's clumping, as well.

Awesome! So helpful. I've heard something about baby powder too but I've never tried it or saw results. Where can I get these products?! Also is it effective to heat up your lash curler.

Baby powder is hard to do, because you have to have a very, very light hand or it will clump insanely.

It's effective to heat your lash curler if you'd like your lashes to stay curled longer, I.e. if curling them normally doesn't last.

You can get both of those at Sephora, I'll link them:

The Lancôme is one of the pricier lash primers, but Clinique makes a less pricey one for $15.

I just ordered arbonnes lash enhancer it got good reviews on makeup alley for growing lashes longer. Also at night I condition my lashes with castor oil and I know people have told me recently I shouldn't do this but honestly my lashes look so much fuller and healthier when I do this.
