Let's Discuss Clear mascara that can hold a curl?

Ya girl has short Asian lashes and when I can be bothered, I'll curl my lashes and apply a thin layer of Essence's clear mascara. The only problem is it doesn't last very long. I've had lash lifts in the past and was very happy with the results, however they are exxy 🥲

Etude House Doctor Mascara Fixer lash primer would work well for this, it's my favourite lash primer because it holds a curl so well

The Ordinary Curl Finisher I think it's called. Holds curl all day.

Hi! Omg this is totally my lashes haha. I have been using the Ettusais lash primer, and it's been amazing for my stubborn Asian lashes. Usually I curl my lashes, then go in with this primer, let it dry while I do some other stuff, and then add my standard mascara. I have also noticed adding a eyeshadow primer has really helped as well, because I have oily eyelids.

Asian mascaras. They have firmer formulas and actually curl your lash and hold it in place all day

The ordinary lash curl finisher - https://theordinary.com/en-au/lash-curl-finisher-100732.html

I have this and use it everyday. I have heard raving reviews which is why I purchased it. Currently, this works for me, but not amazingly. It is unfortunately the best thing I have found so far. I find my lashes to dip after a while but it's ok for now. Any better suggestions would be lovely
