Makeup? Please help!?

Question

I only like putting on Mascara and I little eyeliner. But the mascara always gets clogged and I don'tt know how to fix it. And my lashes don't ever go up high!

Help!

Answer 1

Try a different mascara and don't put too much on. I usually use relatively cheap brands but sometimes if they're a little old they get really sticky. I recently spent a few extra dollars on a Rimmel mascara, I think it's called Volumize or something like that, it's in a red and black bottle and it works great and makes my eyelashes really long and I have short ones.

Don't go by the adds when you're buying mascara though because unless you were born with naturally enormous lashes you'll never get them that huge without adding fake lashes, go by the brush, most mascaras show you the brush while still in the package, the bigger the brush the bigger your lashes.

Then you have to decide do you want more length or more thickness? Since you say yours don't go up high I think you might like a good lenghtening mascara.

Oh, and you can invest in a cheap little eyelash curler from a dollar store to curl your lashes BEFORE you put on mascara if your lashes don't curve very well naturally, that will make them look like they go up high too.

If you need anymore help feel free to e-mail me. :D

Answer 2

Be sure to curl your eyelashes before the mascara...get an eyelash comb to separate your lashes after you apply mascara, and be sure to replace your mascara every couple of months. Also, be sure to wash the mascara alllll off at night, this means you may need eye makeup remover.

Answer 3

Get a good mascara like a covergirl no clump. And to make them go up higher use a eyelash curler.  

Answer 4

buy good mascara! Not the cheap kind go to a makeup counter and have a clerk put some on and pick your favorite! Sephora.com go there, they have everything you need to look fablous!

Answer 5

get an eyelash curler..and a good quality mascara

Answer 6

use an eyelash curler and a eyelash/eyebrow brush.

if you do the eyeliner on the top lid really thick it makes it look like you have no eyelashes so do a thin line.

Answer 7

Try getting a new mascara or when your applying the mascara, use little zig zag movements. I've seen it on a TV show somewhere.

Answer 8

Eyelash curlers :) Do the wiggle thing at the bottom of your lashes to stop clumping it does work :) and try to warm your mascara somehow first too  

Answer 9

Oh I SO hear that! OK so here are a couple tricks that may help. ONE if your mascara is clumpy it could be past it's best before date. You shouldn't hang on to any make up more then 6 months (oh we are ALL guilty of it. I had one tube of lipstick I couldn't match the shade...3 years) and eye make up like no more then 3! DO NOT SHARE your eye make up.  

If your eyelashes won't "go high" you can try curling them. It helps. You can get curlers dead cheap and they are simple to use with a couple practice runs.

You can get self curling mascara now even! Keep in mind my friend tried it and found it didn't kick in untill the third time she used it. Her eyelashes needed to adjust or something.

It could be that you are just using the wrong style of brush. Ask the lady at the counter to recommend one for your lash style.

Try a liquid top liner to fill out your eye lashes. It makes a huge difference. Use as directed.

GOOD LUCK!

Answer 10

put very little mascara on so it wont be too much or get clogged or just use a eyelash curler because usually mascara makes ur eyelashes less...

ya... for ur other problem also use a eyelash curler and put on some lipgloss to make it glossier!

Answer 11

well when you're taking out the mascara from the tube, take it out slowly and don't push it back in and out again. Just slowly take it out to get just enough on the brush. Then when applying, jiggle it upwards and across as you're going up the eyelash, as if you're brushing it across the lashes in a quick smooth motion. This should prevent clumping. Don't go over the lashes more than twice unless you want more volume (at the risk of more clumps). hope this helps

p.s. try MAC plush lash for voluminous lengthy lashes

Answer 12

just get a mascara brush and just train them!

Answer 13

to get un-cloggedy mascara, you just need to experiment with different brands til you find a good one ... even if it means spending a few more bucks.  to get them to go up high ... use an eyelash curler!! :)

Answer 14

I used to have the same problem.

Curl your lashes with an eyelash curler. Squeeze it about 5 times at the base of your lashes.

Then, when you apply mascara, wiggle the wand right to left a little bit as you apply it.

Answer 15

well when u have maskara for a while it gets all clumpy and stuff, so the best thing you can do is get new maskara!!! and if it still doesnt make your lashes go up high, use eyelash curlers. HOPE THIS HELPED!! GOD BLESS<3
