I feel your pain. I don't even apply mascara on my bottom lashes they are so nonexistent. Interesting link. I may give this a try. I don't wear mascara that often so this would be a good alternative to buying and then throwing out expensive tubes every six months.

I wear makeup all the time mostly. Not alot, and when going out a tad more. Makes me feel...finished

I found some "super stay" makeup that's supposed to last for 24 hours... nope, melts right off!

Waterproof mascara is removed with oil so it won't stay very good in the heat. If you want your mascara to stay, you're better off using the non-waterproof formulas if your skin gets oily.

My eyelashes are blonde also, but not so short. Mascara is usually the only make up I wear on a daily basis. some lipstick if I go out. I am definitely going to try this.

I have short sparse lashes and most mascara drives me nuts after it's about 3 weeks old!! I think I will give this a try too. I don't need the lengthening, thickening typse because they just seem to flake and irritate my eyes. THis could be the answer!

In the SCA, a lot of people put a bowl over a candle and collect the smoke. Put a TINY bit of oil on a qtip, collect the soot, and apply But here is a cool walkthrough on it.

Thanks for the mascara link! I hate the ingredients in most of them.
