Since uni has started, I wouldnt be able to play with my makeup as much as I'd like to. I rather have an extra 10-20 minutes in bed than fixing myself up :)
Man, its hard to get out of bed and actually look half decent for morning lectures. So I am going to share my surefire trick to open up small eyes, and look awake for the rest of the day!
The key to looking wide awake is long curly eyelashes. I dont have shu uemura or shiseido eyelash curler, mine is a cheapo I got from a drugstore however I still get awesome results by following this simple technique..
Before using your eyelash curler, heat it up using the hairdryer. Then tilt head up and curl the eyelash with the curler for 5 secs. Be careful not to burn your eyelids. The curl looks more natural and the heat holds the curl longer. It's a lil tricky but with practise it gets easier :)
Lastly apply mascara as usual. Waterproof mascara helps hold the curl better than non-waterproof ones however it's harder to remove. I personally prefer waterproof ones cos you never know when its going to rain so it's better to be well-prepared :) Just make sure you remove it before bed. Leaving mascara on can make eyelashes brittle and breaks easily. Not pretty!
