This blog post will be about one of my favorite lash products : the Essence Volumizing Lash Powder. It works the same way as a mascara with synthetic fibers, expect in this case, you can control the amount you want to put on your lashes.
The way it works :
1- Apply one first coat of your favorite regular mascara.

2- Add the Volumizing Lash Powder directly on top of the mascara you've just applied. You can use the brush that comes with it or directly apply the product with your fingers.
3- Add a second coat of your favorite mascara to seal the fibers to the lashes.
4 - Repeat Step 1 and 2 until you achieve the desired amount of volume.

* I recommend adding one layer at a time, so the lashes won't clump.
Before and after :
Where to buy and pricing :
In Canada you can buy it at Shoppers Drug Mart for 3.49 $.
Overall review:
Altogether, I find it very surprising that other makeup brands don't carry lash powders. It's so convenient and it gives the thickness of falsies while looking completely natural. It retails for a very good price, especially compared to some mascaras that contain synthetic fibers (8.46 $). Plus, you get to add as much product as needed. The only downside is that it easily clumps, but with practice it becomes easier to get an even application.
Final rate :
Application : 4/5
Price : 5/5
Final result : 4/5
