There are different ways to extend your eyelashes to maximum volume, but StyleWise style editor Jon Jordan suggests going with the good old fashioned fake eyelash.

Cleaning, sanitizing your makeup brushes has never been so important
If youโve never thought about sanitizing your makeup brushes, now may be the time to do it. Hopefully youโre not sharing any makeup brushes while youโre quarantined, but even if youโre not -- making sure you have a clean makeup brush can help stop the spread of any kind of germs that may be residing on your face. Cleaning the brushes with soap and water is a step in the right direction, but Jordan suggests making sure you soak the brushes in isopropyl alcohol so they are fully sanitized. And if youโre worried about the brushes drying out, just soak them in some water and hair conditioner after the alcohol. Even when it comes to the packaging of makeup products, Jordan suggests finding ones that are in bottles or have pumps; that way, you donโt cross-contaminate while touching the product.
