  • Prepare for the application

    Many experts advise you to prepare and prim your eyes before you begin the process of applying mascara. The first thing to do is to clean your eyes to remove oil and grime because it can ruin your look. What this means is that you should remove traces of old makeup and at the same time dry the eyes well to deal with oil. 

    It's also very nice to opt for an eye shadow primer because it can be used to create a base for your makeup and at the same time ensure your eyeshade stays for longer. After you have cleaned your eyes, dried and moisturized them, what follows is to apply a primer. 

    Curl your lashes

    What follows after you have prepared is to use an eyelash curler to lengthen and lift your lashes. The main reason for this is to make sure your mascara adheres well to the eyelashes. 

    Apply your mascara

    After preparations, you now have to apply mascara on your upper and lower lashes.

    However, make sure you are not getting excess mascara every time. It's always advisable to wipe off excess mascara on the edge of the bottle. This will reduce chances of clumpy and heavy lashes after application. 

    Upper lashes

    In the process of application, you should look up and place the wand at the base of your lashes. Now wiggle it back and forth to apply mascara faultlessly. As you wiggle it back and forth, make sure its coating the base of the lashes after which you will push the wand upward to the tip of your lash. 

    Make sure you coat every each and every part of your lash. However, you should be moving slowly to avoid clumping. You should continue applying until you get the coat and the thickness you want. Additionally, you have to check and be sure that the product doesn't dry between coats. 

    Lower lashes

    Here is where many people go wrong. When you are applying mascara to the bottom lashes, you should be extra careful because if you use excess product you will create clumps. Additionally, the bottom lashes are more delicate and needs extra care to make it a reality.

    To make easy for you to avoid clumps, use the tip of the wand. You will also have to apply mascara at the roots of the lashes. As you do this, wiggle the bristles back and forth. 

    Separate all the eyelashes

    It's now time to cover and separate the lashes. To ensure you do this perfectly you should reach out all the hard-to-reach corners of the lashes and angle your wand and eventually brush against them. What follows is to switch the brush to a diagonal downward angle and move it across your eye. 

    Clean smudges

    Am sure you already know how messy mascara can be. It may smudge on the eyelids and also the skin around the eye. This happens even to professional makeup artists. So it's time to clean up any smudges and make sure everything is a right before you leave the house. You just have to use makeup remover to do this and everything else will follow. Though, be careful not to interfere with the mascara because it can mean you start the whole process.
