What is 'mascara cocktailing' all about?

The idea that there is no such thing as the ideal mascara is the foundation of this trend. According to TikTokers, it is impossible to find a mascara that does an ideal job of lengthening and volumizing lashes. They eventually decided that they had to create a method to get around this and the result is 'mascara cocktailing'.

The goal is to get a mascara formulated for volume, another mascara formulated for length, and maybe even a third one to serve as a primer. Once you’ve got all the products you need, all you have to do is head to the bathroom to try out your new routine.

How to try 'mascara cocktailing'?

Those trying to create their own mascara cocktail simply need to seek out multiple formulas that are known for different things. Here, this involves applying a primer, a lash care product, or even a clear mascara designed to naturally lengthen lashes and then switching to the second step -- a mascara that’s supposed to make them fuller and more voluminous.

But that’s not all. ‘Mascara cocktailing’ consists precisely in adding a third layer, a mascara formulated for XXL lashes, to get a look worthy of the most sophisticated red carpets. This trick is already a hit on the social network platform TikTok.
