This beaming beauty rocked the prettiest pastel braids with a red and blue ensemble.
If you're in the relentless hunt for the perfect mascara, that not only volumizes but also gives your lashes the much-needed lift, then you should absolutely give the dior show mascara a try. It's undeniably one of the best mascaras that guarantees both length and volume while leaving no clumps behind.
5. Curls Galore
