Hypoallergenic mascara

The first copies of the carcass appeared in the days of ancient Egypt. The formula was simple: soot and oil. For many centuries it was used by women only occasionally, since some variations of the composition were quite dangerous for the eyes.

A more perfect mascara was invented in the middle of the last century. Eugene Rimmel connected coal with petroleum jelly, which was pressed into a bar. To this bar there was a brush for application. But the invention did not become popular.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, this cosmetic still gains its place of honor for many years. A chemist from the United States named Terry Williams created a similar instance for his sister Mabel, who had by nature very bright eyelashes. The composition included coal powder and petroleum jelly. To increase sales, the beautiful name “Maybelline” was created, which is derived from the words “Mabel” and “Vaseline”. Thus began the history of the brand, known to this day, and modern mascara is used by all without exception.

Today, mascara is a must have in every lady's cosmetics bag, whether it is a high school student, student, business woman, model or grandmother in retirement. Everyone wants to have a thick fan of rich dark color. In the composition of modern cosmetics a lot of unknown to the common man components, so the usual mascara can cause allergic reactions.

The beauty industry is not in place, and to help the owners of sensitive eyes began to produce hypoallergenic mascara. It was revealed what components most often the reaction takes place, such components are replaced by safer analogues or are completely removed from the formula.

Even if the product has a special label “hypoallergenic” in its name, you should pay attention to the composition. It is not always easy for a simple buyer to understand what components are listed there, so pay attention to such substances:

• Pentaerythrityl hydrogenated rosinate or hydrogenated fatty acids. This component is a product of oil refining and is added as a viscosity regulator so that the mascara does not thicken ahead of time. Very often irritating to the eyes.
• Carnauba wax or carnauba wax. Substance of natural origin, but is a powerful allergen. His presence in the composition is also not desirable.
• Thimerosal is added as an antiseptic and preservative. In its composition contains mercury, the poet is also dangerous for the eyes.
• Propylene glycol is used as a solvent for dry coloring matter and to control viscosity.. Able to irritate some people.

Its base contains substances such as: demineralized water, beeswax, iron oxide, castor oil, glycerin and vitamins. This formula is safer. Due to its water base it has a light texture and does not weigh down eyelashes. The presence of oils and vitamins gives the hairs extra care and nutrition.

In addition to its clear advantages, hypoallergenic mascara has some drawbacks that you should know before making a purchase. Due to the water base, it is not resistant. Due to the lack of synthetic viscosity regulators, it may peel off after some time, also does not give a saturated dark color and has minimal elongation and volume increase, as it does not contain metallic powder.

The latter problem is completely solvable, if we apply one simple technique, known for many decades. So, to get puppet cilia with the effect of building you should perform the following manipulations:

• apply the first layer of mascara;
• until the cilia are dry, apply a small amount of ordinary face powder to them with a dry brush, evenly spread over the entire surface;
• apply a second layer of mascara, modeling the shape of the fan with a brush, twist the cilia with a movement from side to side from the base and upwards;
• repeat the procedure with powder;
• apply a finishing coat of coloring agent.

Voila! Now you are ready for the holiday outing. Powder will give additional volume, length and increase resistance.
