Faqs

HOW DOES LENGTHENING MASCARA WORK?

Lengthening mascaras contain lightweight fibres or stretch polymers that cling to each lash, creating the look of longer lashes without clumping. Together, lengthening mascaras create the appearance of longer, more defined lashes.

HOW TO APPLY LENGTHENING MASCARA FOR BEST RESULTS?

Start at the lash base and gently wiggle the brush upward to evenly coat each lash. Apply a second coat for extra length and definition. Explore Maybelline’s expert tips for applying mascara that lasts all day.

IS MAYBELLINE SKY HIGH MASCARA A LENGTHENING MASCARA?

Yes, Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara is one of our cult-favourite lengthening mascara. Powered by bamboo extract and fibres, this lightweight formula gives you next-level length and lift—no heaviness, no clumps. Paired with the flexible Flex Tower brush, it coats lashes from root to tip for visibly longer and fuller-looking lashes.

HOW LONG DOES LENGTHENING MASCARA LAST THROUGHOUT THE DAY?

Most formulas are designed to stay put for up to 12 hours without flaking or smudging, keeping lashes long and lifted all day.

WHICH ONE IS BETTER: VOLUMISING OR LENGTHENING MASCARA?

Lengthening mascaras are best if you want to extend and define shorter lashes for a natural, elongated look while volumising mascaras, like the Colossal Bubble waterproof mascara, is ideal if you're after a thicker and more dramatic look.

SHOULD YOU PUT VOLUMISING OR LENGTHENING MASCARA FIRST?

It’s best to apply lengthening mascara first to separate and define each lash, creating a base for even coverage. Once it sets, follow with volumising mascara such as the Volum' Express The Falsies Waterproof Mascara to build fullness. This mascara layering trick helps achieve a more lifted, fanned-out look that lasts all day.

WHAT TO USE TO APPLY FOUNDATION?

There are a few different ways to apply foundation so always feel free to experiment until you've got your absolute fave:
1. Beauty Blender: a beauty blender is a makeup sponge that is ideal for applying liquid foundations and is excellent for blending into the skin's natural tone or for different shades. By using a beauty blender, it can get into small edges and makes sure your foundation is streak-free. 
2. Brushes: If you're looking for versatility, brushes can do it all when it comes to foundation. Use a foundation brush for an even spread of your liquid foundation or a fluffy and light touch for a matte foundation. 
3. Hands: You can even use your fingers to apply your foundation if you're caught without your tools. Liquid foundation melts and blends with the body's temperature.
