There is a beauty myth that floats about saying that if you put baby powder on eyelashes wet with mascara, it will give you instantly fuller, longer lashes. Always up for a new adventure, I decided to try it out.

They way you're supposed to go about it is to swipe on some mascara (using my tried and true Falsies Volume Express by Maybelline), dip a Q-tip in baby powder, place in on top of the wet mascara and then redo the mascara on that side.

The first time I tried it, virtually nothing stuck to the mascara. I'm kind of wondering if it wasn't wet enough? I gave it another coat and, with a Q-tip, really tried to get the baby powder on good before swapping another coat of mascara.

Here are the results.

Left eye baby powder, right eye regular mascara

Left eye baby powder, right side mascara

To be honest, I don't see much of a difference. In fact, the baby powder seemed to clump the mascara more. I looked on Huda Beauty and although the blogger there claims it works, to me her eyelashes also look really clumped. Either I'm doing it wrong or it's just a myth.
