My mascara leaves like tiny pieces on my eye. it looks weird. why?

Question

i used covergirl brown mascara (not waterproof)

another thing. when i curl my eyelashes, it doesnt even last a few hours.

any tips?

Answer 1

I don't really use covergirl products anymore because I just don't think they are very good, except the eyebrow pencils.

You should try this method of curling your eyelashes:

Also you could try a Maybelline mascara. I have found that they work a LOT better for me than any other brand I've used, including bare minerals. I used to use their XXL mascara religiously until I tried the Volum' Express Turbo Boost. They have one specifically for curling:

"XXL Curl Power™ Volume + Length Microfiber Mascara"

If you don't like/want the XXL Curl Power, look for another mascara that is specifically for curling. I would just avoid cover girl mascaras.  

Answer 2

you might be applying too much mascara, and it's flaking.  but it also maybe be your mascara, so try out a new one, my top two favorites are lash blast by covergirl & glam eyes by rimmel london, both i have found never flake.

i've never tried this myself, but i've been told by friends and read in a lot of magazines, holding a blowdryer over your eyelash curler, until it's hot, then use it to curl your eyelashes.  the heat will hold the curl.  good luck!

Answer 3

You may have a bad mascara i dont like covergirl..maybelline is wayy better.

Also right after you put on the mascara curl it...while its still wet then apply a light second coat.

Works well that way but work fast because you dont want it to clump.

Answer 4

Yeah, use an eye lash primer.

Get a better mascara, like Dior Show or Maybelline.

They're the best in the game.

Curl your lashes prior to mascara application, and don't apply so much mascara.
