    I personally wouldn't do it. Baby powder is scented talcum powder. Which comes from talc. Talc is a mineral, essentially a rock. A very soft rock, but still a rock. I won't be putting anything rock-ish anywhere near my eyes. Don't care if it'll make my lashes fuller. I don't want cornea scratches. Thanks anyway. All this is just my opinion. I love Elko's Fail or Holy Grail videos. :)

    I don't think I would do this for a few reasons. It's not my preference for how they come out looking and even if it was my eyes are super sensitive so I'm afraid the baby powder would irritate them. If I want an extreme look I think I'll just try my hand out at false eyelashes. (But I guess it's a good thing I prefer the more natural mascara look since I already have extremely long lashes).
