Fill in Gaps

FAQs 

1. Does a liner work for filling in the brows?
Yes! Drawing Show Brush Liner is fast to use; you just need to draw your brow’s shape and then gently brush to create a fuller look.

2. Does waterproof mascara really have to be used?
Yes, especially for hot and humid weather, because it lifts your lashes while also preventing flaking or smudging.

3. Will shimmer shadow fade quickly?
If you use a little dab without a foundation, the cream will not cause creases. It also brightens the eyes gently.

4. Do I need to clean up throughout the day?
Only minimal touch-ups are required if your eyebrows become oily (press on the powder, blotting it lightly). Mascara is fresh and clean all day because of its water-resistant formula.

Absolutely! Just a little dab in the middle combined with a touch of shimmer can instantly make your eyes appear bigger, and best of all, it takes almost no effort.
