Do you guys watch Girls? If you don’t you should. It’s so funny and relevant and just the right kind of awkward and the main character is called Hannah.

We have two Hannah’s at Saunders. Hannah R is our stellar fashion assistant and Hannah P (me) is the best beauty assistant Saunders ever had. But back to Girls. In one episode Hannah revealed that in high school she had an advice column called ‘Holla at Hannah’ so we have decided to create our very own on the Saunders blog!

We’re going to take it in turns, Hannah R will do fashion tips and I’ll do beauty and you will learn so much from us you will wonder how you ever lived without us. And if you ever have a question you can just email us at info@sandcopr.com.au and we’ll answer it right here on the blog. How exciting is that?

So I’ll kick it off with a beauty tip inspired by the lovely Kate Fraser who heads up all our Fashion brands here at Saunders. On Monday evening Kate and I were getting ready for the Nars Mecca event. We were sharing a mirror and doing our makeup when I noticed Kate pumping her mascara wand in the tube. GUYS! This is such a big no-no. What you are really doing is pushing air into your mascara and causing it to dry out faster. It’s much better to twirl your mascara wand, this way you’re getting an even coverage of mascara on the wand and a longer life for your mascara.

So now you, and Kate, know: To keep the lash curl, you gotta learn to twirl.
