Natural Homemade Mascara.

Posted on November 9, 2010 by admin

I don’t wear makeup but I thought this one is interesting so I am sharing the recipe I snagged from Passionate Homemaking.

Natural Homemade Mascara

* 1/8 tsp. Activated Charcoal (about 1/2 capsule)
* 1/8 tsp. Aloe Vera Gel

Mix together aloe and charcoal. (I use a small baby spoon, since I’m not using them for baby food!) Then, dip in a clean mascara brush wand, pressing it against the inside of the bowl to coat it evenly onto the wand, smoothing out any clumps. Apply to eyelashes as usual. Wait a few seconds before blinking, to let the mascara dry, so that it doesn’t get on your cheeks.
