How I achieve long voluminous lashes; for asians

Hey everyone, it is no surprise that our asian lashes are short, stumpy and overall serve little purpose on our face. But today I wanted to show you how I achieve my semi - ok lashes.

Recently I purchased the Shu Uemura Eyelash curler from David Jones for AU$29. I'm pretty sure they have recently lowered their prices (YAY) from AU$40.

Shu uemura eyelash curler, Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Kajal Liner in Place, Maybelline Falsies Volume Express Waterproof Everlasting.

 So what I do is curl my lashes by clamping the eyelash curler at the base for 15 seconds, then I move halfway up the lash and repeat and finally at the tips. I then apply the mascara, focusing at the root and slowly wriggling it up to the tips. I also like to blink into the mascara as I find its less clumpy that way. Then I tightline using the Rimmel liner, to make my lashes look nice and thick and voila!

I just wanted to mention the hype about the shu uemura eyelash curler is true. I've never experience pinching that has occurred with all other curlers and it makes my short stubby asian eyelashes to have some length to them as you can see from the picture. I know this may not seem amazing to most people, but FOR ME ... I am so glad.

Also I went to the gym after taking this picture, and after my workout, can you believe their was no smudging and the curl did not drop at all. Props to the maybelline mascara!

Let me know what your favourite mascara tips are.
