Mascara wands come in different shapes - hourglass,
spherical and wavy, does it really matter which one you choose?
Wand shapes do make a difference, you can take the same
mascara and apply it with different brushes and get completely different looks.
The formula has a huge impact as well because the formula
and the brush have to work together, you wouldn’t want a formula that lengthens
but a brush that gives volume.
If you want a quick easy basic application of only using one
or two coats of mascara, use a wand that deposits a lot product so that those
few swipes will completely coat your lashes.
Choose a wand with a wide core this will pick up a lot of
mascara and delivers it to the base of the lashes.

Clump Crusher mascara is great for a quick application.
The tight spacing between bristles is smaller than the usual
clump size - so clumps won’t start forming on the brush, giving a nice even
application!
Lash Volume
Next time you are looking deciding which wand to try, here
is a neat trick to remember - how the
wand looks is how it's going to apply. For example: A thick and fluffy
brush will give voluminous, fluffy lashes.
Long, voluminous and thick lashes are what almost all women
want from mascara.
To pump up lashes, choose a wand that is big and fluffy.

Formula Organic Wear 100% Natural Origin Jumbo Lash Mascara is not
only Eco-friendly but also maximizes and intensifies lash volume.

Beauty Large Lash Mascara uses Vitamin E to strengthen and
condition lashes. Its large brush defines and separates for a clump-free finish
that won't smudge.
Fluttery, Defined Lashes
For definition,
separation and length, smaller brushes - ones with closely spaced bristles are
the best tool.
Ball tipped brushes also allow you to get extreme definition
because the smaller shape allows you to get from root to tip, and to evenly
coat each and every lash individually.
It
Cosmetics Hello Lashes Mascara - is formulated with peptides, proteins and
jojoba to keep lashes soft and healthy.
L'Oréal
Voluminous Butterfly Mascara extends and lifts outer corner lashes
to give you a winged-out effect.
Curl and Lift
Choose a brush that mirrors the effect you're looking for –
if you want curl, curved brushes are what you want or you can also try one that
looks like an hourglass - the shape gives you the lift and curl of a curved
brush while also getting to every lash.

Benefit
Roller Lash Mascara – this mascara was inspired by hair rollers, it
curls and lifts lasjes without clumping.
Sometimes I like to make my own mascara cocktail by using
two or more mascaras to achieve the look I want. Other times I find mascaras
that have done the work for me!
CoverGirl's
Bombshell Volume mascara was inspired by women who like to combine
mascaras.
One side of the mascara is a volumizing formula and brush and
the other side is a thinner formula that, through the use of a different brush,
adds intensity and depth of color, One side volume – other side lengthens!
L'Oreal
Paris Voluminous Million Lashes Mascara has a unique brush designed to
amplify and separate lashes while building volume and the built-in Clean Sweep
Wiping System wipes the brush free of clumps leaving the perfect amount of
mascara for a volumized lash look.
