    Default double that?

    Hello, there. I am translating a document about cosmetic products from Korean to English. The following is my translation.

    " Mascara that provides rich volume and curling that seem to be exploded"

    I used relative pronoun that twice. Is it okay?

    The choice of two that's is not ungrammatical, but unfortunate (different referents for the same pronoun).
