Help with applying mascara

Question

i suck at putting on mascara!! ok well idk if you're supposed to put it on the top of your top eyelashes or like the underneath side .. i try both at different times

anyway when i apply it it gets all over my eyelids and on the sides of my eyes!! and it all clumps together so i end up having to wipe it with a tissue to get it to look normal .. help?!

Answer 1

apply to under eyelashes and keep applying x

Answer 2

first of all you put it on the underside of your lashes. And second maybe you need a better mascara. It is not supposed to clump them together it is supposed to separate them.

Answer 3

first make sure u have good mascara im not saying that u needa buy the most expensive kind but the 99 cent c**p or even the 1.99 kind is not good

get a good eyelash comb too

u have to apply all your other eye makeup first (eyeshadow,eyeliner) do the mascara last

when u do the top lashes tilt your head back a little and look down into the mirror and then put the mascara at the base of your eyelashes and wiggle it side to side then slowly move it towards the ends of the lashes

and then do one more coat right away dont let it dry

if u have any clumps use the eyelash comb

then when u do the bottom lashes put your head down a bit and look up into the mirror and really carefully just gently put the mascara brush to your bottom lashes to lightly coat them

:-) First things first. Go Slow. Don't pump the mascara brush in the bottle because it makes bubbles and lets in air which spreads bacteria. Second, make sure all the clumps are all off the brush before you apply. You apply to underside of the lashes. Like how you brush your hair from underneath. Apply one layer, and let it dry. If you are putting too much on, it will get clumpy and thick. If you add it to outside corners of your eyes, they will look bigger. Don't put it on the bottom lashes, it is always very noticable. Mascara goes on last. So do eyeshadow, and powder/foundation and blush all before. Let it dry before you touch it. If you do get it around your eyes (I tend ot sneeze for some reason after i put it on) a little lotion will wipe it right off.

First apply it to your top lashes first (slowly!) from the root to tip, to keep it clean take a stick note fold it in half, place it behind your eyelid/lashes to avoid smudging, if you make a mistake use a q-tip dipped in a little make-up remover, now your free to do the same to the bottom lashes but apply it very lightly.

Hope i helped,

best regards and good luck!

Answer 8

A lot of people say do both sides of your top lashes, as in brush your lashes down first... don't do this, it makes the mascara go all clumpy and blocks it up!

Basically, widen your eyes and raise your eyebrows while you're doing the top eyelashes, and apply two coats to your top ones, and one coat to your bottom.

But the most important thing is definately to widen your eyes, coz then they look bigger and it's clear where to put it on, so you can't go wrong ;D

Hope i helped you..!

Mascara is exteremely simply to apply.

Try applying on the underneath aspect of the eyeleash.  And work in a zig zag motion through the lash.  Then focus on the tips for an extra dramatic look.  Try a mascara that has a plastic applicator.
