"Here's a trick if you want to add thickness but don't feel like splurging on new mascaras. Do one coat of mascara so your lashes are wet. Sprinkle some loose powder on your lashes and then another coat of mascara on top of the powder. The powder will add a nice amount of thickness." -- Stiles

"Use lengthening mascara first to comb and separate lashes and [then] build a few coats of a thickening mascara to create dense drama." -- Bettelli

For a good lengthening mascara, Bettelli recommends MAC Fibre Rich Lash Mascara, $12.

Try L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Mascara, $6.99 to thicken lashes, it's a TotalBeauty.com reader favorite.

"Try using dark brown mascara on the inner half of the eye and black mascara on the outer lashes. This creates dimension and elongates the lankiest outer part of the lashes." -- Bettelli
