Tame your brows

Tame your flyaways and conceal your grey hair temporarily

This trick is especially for those who have black hair and if not, then you can easily buy colored mascara. Whether you have to get rid of flyaways or temporarily color your grey hair, mascara has always got your back. Take a mascara wand and lightly run it over the grey strand to conceal it temporarily. Similarly, you can run mascara over your flyaways to make them settle down for some time.

Use it as eyeliner

This can become one of your favorite hacks especially when you have run out of your eyeliner last minute. All you will need is your mascara and an eyeliner brush.

Start by taking a very little product and then gradually build it up to darken its appearance to avoid any kind of mistake.

Nourish your lashes with almond oil

Dreaming of those fluttery, luscious lashes? There’s a way you can get them without using your mascara.
