Hey Friends!

I am having a blast here at the Haven Conference! Wish you ALL were here!

While I am away, I asked my sis, Cyndi, to guest post for me. She has a fabulous blog called Walking in Grace and Beauty where she talks about beauty, fashion, and Jesus.

Yes, you heard me right! Those three things can go together. :) She knows where true beauty comes from and that matters most. I love my sister’s blog, and I cannot tell you how many wonderful beauty and fashion tips I have gotten from her.

Like today’s post. I absolutely love this tip about how to have gorgeous eyelashes!

Take it away, Cyndi!

Good morning ladies! I know most of the time over here on my sister’s blog you ladies talk about DIY on your home. But, today we’re going to talk about some DIY for our eyelashes.

A few weeks ago I read about how to have gorgeous eyelashes and I wanted to share it with you all because it really works. All you need is an eyelash curler, a blow dryer and mascara. I use volume mascara because my eyelashes are very short.

Here’s what you do to have gorgeous eyelashes:

With your blow dryer on low heat, blow air on the curler (especially on the rubber part) for no more than 5 seconds. Touch the metal. If it’s hot, let it cool for a few seconds. You don’t want to burn your eyelid.

Open the curler, clamp lashes near the roots. Hold for 10-30 seconds. Never curl lashes after you apply mascara — as the mascara dries, lashes can stick to the curler & be torn from the roots.

Just because I want you to see how great this works, I’ve taken pictures (close-up pictures) of my eye. Oh how I wanted to airbrush these pictures!!

These are my eyelashes before curling or using mascara. Not too pretty.

My eyelashes after using the warm eyelash curler. Better.

These are my eyelashes after using the eyelash curler and mascara. Much better!

Okay, I may not have gorgeous eyelashes, but they look much better after using the warm eyelash curler. I’m hooked!

Thanks Sis for letting me hop over here and share some beauty tips with your sweet readers. I love to share about fashion and beauty on my blog, Walking in Grace and Beauty. Sometimes I even share some things I’ve done to my home. :-) You can follow me on my Facebook page, here. I’d love for you to stop by! Have a blessed day!
