Whether you don't have your preferred mascara or are inclined to explore a more natural option, making mascara at home can be a fun and affordable solution. Below is an uncomplicated recipe for preparing your personalized mascara, promising lashes that are refreshed and beautifully defined.
Ingredients:
1.Activated charcoal or cocoa powder (for color): Choose activated charcoal for a classic black mascara or cocoa powder for a brown shade.
2. Aloe Vera Gel (Thickener): 1 teaspoon of aloe Vera gel helps give your own mascara the right texture and ensures easy application.
3.Beeswax Lozenges (for setting): 1/2 teaspoon of beeswax lozenges will give your mascara a firmer shape and prevent it from dissolving at room temperature.

The mascara tube clean and make sure the wand is clean. If you are using an old tube mascara, you soak it in warm, soapy water to remove any mascara remaining .
