Mistakes to Avoid While Applying Mascara

1. Mistakes to Avoid While Applying Mascara Mascara is one of the most basic yet key ingredients inside any makeup kit. It is the best way to make your eyes look brighter and fresher, giving the whole face a glowing appearance. Mascaras can be a quick go-to option when you’re running late and need aquick fix to look like you’ve put in effort and time into your look. However, the wrong application of the same mascara can make your eyes look puffy and make your face look tired apart from making the eyelashes look like they’ve been glued together. Here is a list of mistakes that you should avoid so that you can understand how to apply mascara like a pro- Don’t Pump Your Wand Too Many Times The most common mistake made while applying mascara is that we tend to pump the wand into the tube of mascara repeatedly. This pushes air into the tube unevenly and hence forms clumps of the product on the wand. This causes uneven application and may also cause the excess product to be used on the lashes. This will make them stick together and make you look unprepared. It also causes the mascara in the tube to dry out faster. Instead of pumping, just swirl the wand inside the tube for perfect application. Don’t Use Straight Motion Instead of a straight to and fro motion make sure that when you apply the mascara using a wand you are using a wiggling motion. This allows you to apply the product evenly and will not make your lashes look clumpy even after the application of a second coat. This brushes the eyelashes in a good manner giving them a fuller more volumizing look.

2. Don’t Start With The Top Lashes The small dots that bother you a lot and ruin your perfectly done eyeshadow or even cause you to take another fifteen minutes correcting your makeup, are formed only because you start applying mascara from the top lashes. If the application is first performed on the top lashes it is bound to spread when you look down to apply mascara on your bottom lashes creating a perfect recipe for disaster. Start with the bottom lashes and tilt your head forward while applying on your lower lashes. For the upper lashes keep your face straight. Using Only One Type Of Mascara Contrary to popular belief, there are different types of mascaras to perform different functions and they are to be used with each other to give a better and more wholesome application. One type of mascara can be used to add volume to your lashes making them look thick and beautiful while the other can be used to make your lashes look longer and hence make your eyes look bigger and bolder. Taking It Off Mascara is one of the most difficult products to get off, especially if you use a waterproof product. This is why it is important to make sure that your makeup kit contains an eye makeup remover and cotton pads. This helps keep the harmful effects of leaving makeup on, in check. By following these tips you can easily learn how to apply mascara like a pro and will never have to go out with clumpy or unattractive looking eyelashes ever again.
