I like the waterproof mascara. Try Maybelline, COMB-ON. It's fantastic and it's simple to just comb it on vs a brush. You'll love it.

You could always buy a clear mascara to practice with. just need to have a steady hand and make sure you wipe the excess mascara off the end of the brush before you apply, then open your eyes wide and raise your eyebrows. top lashes first i find is easier.brush from the root outwards.the key is to make sure theres not to much on the brush as it clogs. Let the top dry for a few seconds.Same thing with the bottom lashes. hope you get on ok and look superlashous

you should carry a mirror so that you're searching down into it. Then practice mascara to the better lashes. this received't purely stay away from getting smudges on the better eyelid yet could help to twist the lashes. Wait some seconds till now employing to diminish lashes in a tender aspect to aspect action with the top of the comb. As for eyeshadow, the most important component is blending. that's nicely worth making an investment in a sturdy eyeshadow brush. counting on your age you could damage out with maximum colorations in the adventure that they are mixed nicely so no certain edges will be seen. often bypass fo a darker colour in the socket line and a highlighter on the lid and forehead. the great component to do is try and practice and characteristic relaxing with it.

Depending on the formula you choose, mascara gives you the ability thicken and elongulate your eyelashes, thus enhancing the overall appearance of your eyes. Different formulas include those that can thicken, lengthen and condition your eyelashes. Waterproof mascara will repel water and is superb for swimming, sports and emotional events.

So how do you apply mascara? It's best to start with clean eyelashes. Prepare them in advance by using an eyelash curler as close the to base of your eyelashes as possible on your upper lashes.

Begin applying the mascara on the upper lashes, at the base. Whether you choose to hold the want horizontally or vertically is preference but it also may depend on the formula. Wiggle the wand as you go to apply evenly throughout.

A trick for the lower lashes is to take a thin tissue and position it underneath before you apply. This helps you avoid the messy blotches you may get on your face in the process.

If you choose to apply two layers, let the mascara dry for several minutes before applying the second coat. If you're too quick, you may end up with undesirable clumps and smudges.

If you still have clumps, use a metal eyelash comb to lift and separate. If you don't own a metal comb, you can take an old wand and clean it off completely and use it for this purpose only. For super-lustrous lashes, apply mascara to the top of the lashes as well as the underneath.

Here's some tricks & tips::::::

Tip #1: How to use a lash comb. For some, lash combs are simply too fussy. But for some makeup artists, they're a great invention & keep lashes glob-free & perfectly separated. So how to use? Apply mascara at the lash base, wiggling the brush & then comb the mascara to the tips of your lashes. Not into the lash comb? Get rid of clumbs without them by removing excess mascara from the wand. Wipe wand on tissue, this eliminates blobs BEFORE you start.

Tip #2: When applying mascara, wiggle the wand at the base of the lashes. It's the mascara placed near the roots (not the tips) that gives the illusion of length.

Tip #3: Thin, short brushes are best. A thinner brush allows you to get into the corner of eyes. Short brushes give you more control.

Tip #4: Use an eyelash curler BEFORE applying mascara. Curling lashes gives eyes the appearance of being wider & brighter. Shoot hot air from your blowdryer on the mascara curler for 3-5 seconds to warm it up before curling lashes. Touch it first to make sure it's not TOO hot. Shu Uemura makes the most popular eyelash curler on the market ($18-$22).

Tip #5: For a dramatic look, apply mascara only to the upper lashes. To make eyes seem wider, apply to the bottom, too. But make sure you give lashes a light touch. Not great at getting those bottom lashes? Try putting a tissue under them before application.

Tip #6: Zig-zag the wand. Zig-zagging the wand back & forth during application helps cut down clumps.


Tip #7: Do NOT pump wand in & out of the tube. This only introduces air into the tube, which will cause your mascara to dry out sooner than it should


Tip #8: Wait 5 seconds before blinking. You don't want to paint your lids, do you?

Start with your bottom lash so that it doesn't leave marks on your eye lid when you are done. Make sure your hand is steady when you do it so that you don't poke you eye out. Go for mascara that isn't waterproof so that it is easier to wash up if you mess up. Just keep practicing and you will be an expert in no time.

Estee Lauder makes this really cool primer for your lashes. You brush it on, let it dry then add your mascara. Its' a nifty trick to add thickness to your lashes or make them curly!

Whatever you do, don't watch your hand moving close to your eye, watch in the mirror as you move with the mascara wand. Look down and brush away. It's very simple. Nothing to be afraid of, seriously!

Good Luck!

An easy way is to use a hand held magnifying mirror. Lean over and apply with lids half closed. You can cover from the outward only or apply outward side and inward side or just run the brush across you lashes. It depends on what look you want.

Yes, with the wand near your lashes, leave the wand steady and blink a few times. This will make your lashes run through the brush and coat the hairs with mascara. It doesn't require it going toward your eye as much, so it doesn't look as scary.

I hold the mascara sbrush still and I blink and that gets it on and if you want to move the brush then open your mouth just a little it helps with the blinking

well, the safest way to put on mascara is to wear safety goggles (that way no mascara can get in your eyes), i also like to wear latex gloves...and instead of a mascara wand, i would use cotton balls to apply it so there is no chance of poking your eyes ot. have fun and be safe (:

celtic butter or what ever her name is has a problem!
