peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1for extra long lashes Explanation: one talks of "lash-lengthening mascara" (all over eye make-up ads) for that long-lasting extra-long lash look (how about that for alliteration!) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-12-06 08:47:19 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- aufrollen = lengthen - it is clearly a roll-on product -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-12-06 09:04:13 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- these gadgets tend to come in a wand-type shape with a spiral thread going round it to apply to and separate the lashes (to quote the adverts). So the movement is a rolling one. Whence the chocie of verb -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2004-12-06 09:04:19 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- these gadgets tend to come in a wand-type shape with a spiral thread going round it to apply to and separate the lashes (to quote the adverts).

| aufrollen (hier) for extreme length ... Explanation: If this is "regular" mascara, then it's call lengthening mascara. The note about this product achieveing length, not just curl, makes me believe that it could also be a lash extender since most lengthening products achieve length by curling the lash upwards. However, an extender would go on clear after your regular mascara. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 hrs 30 mins (2004-12-06 13:56:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- *called :) Reference: http://www.thebeautyroom.com/isroot/thebeautyroom/ExportMeta... |
