[@asmashafiq9811]

Will the mascara not spread around eyes? Also, to make it dry to that extent that it dries immediately can we add more beeswax?

[@blueecho9792]

Aaaaand I know what im giving my mum for Christmas now🤩👏 Question, where'd you get that mascara tube?

[@VanessaDixon]

Haha I hope she loves it! I bought mine from Etsy, they have so many beautiful makeup containers there 😍

[@FloreneFlower]

Is clay used to give it dry texture so it doesnt smudge?

[@VanessaDixon]

@FloreneFlower the clay helps to act like a natural thickener, allowing the eyeliner to adhere to the skin and stay in place better, and is a base for the pigment of the eyeliner to stick to

[@FloreneFlower]

@VanessaDixon can I use chandan, yellow mud clay for that, as that is the only easily available clay here.

[@VanessaDixon]

@FloreneFlower great question, I'm not sure sorry. I haven't used that type of clay before, and I'm not sure if the consistency is the same and if it is an easy substitute for this recipe (I'm not sure if the amounts are the same for conversion of ingredients)

Thank you 🙏

i have been on the look out for colorfull mascaras, but they dont really exist or if they are on amazon they are suspicious ( like it could be pva glue) also clear mascara to mix with colors is expensive, and so i have been thinking, instead of throwing out eyeshadows that i dont really use ( since sometimes you get kits for a few shades then the rest is similar to others you dont have....) i was thinking to slowly make them into mascara over time. its both less wastefull and i have some control over then ingredients and also i do get more product for less money, i was wondering, i already have liquid coconut oil that i use to remove my makeup, do you thing i could use that instead of glycerin ? i have found pure aloe that has a little glycerin in it... i find it hard to find good aloe thats pure enough but not literal water. i would use the clay, aloe, bees wax, eyeshadow and coconut oil. i just dont see myself using glycerin much... and the clay i could make mask, the aloe is always good for skin and the bees wax can become candles at worst.

[@VanessaDixon]

@bleupapillons this is such a great idea, I couldn't say about the eye shadow as I'm not sure if it's suitable for use on the eyelashes, but I love the idea. If you do try it I'd love to hear your thoughts on it, but again, just make sure it's safe for use on that area of the eye (incase the ingredients can irritate the eyes)

[@the.carnivore.mermaid]

Is the mascara waterproof at all?

[@VanessaDixon]

@the.carnivore.mermaid this one isn't, but I have seen recipes online that are

[@YassineKAOUANE]

Beautiful eyes. Must be the mascara ;)

[@VanessaDixon]

Hahaha aww thank you! Definitely the mascara 😉
