It is better to curl lashes before applying mascara. It's easier on the lashes because they are more malleable and it keeps the lash curler clean.
One way to help your lashes hold the curl is to briefly warm the lash curler w/ a blow dryer. Hold the blow dryer a few inches away from the curler & run it on medium-low heat for a few seconds. Touch the curler to gauge its warmth before you use it.
You can try a mascara formulated to curl lashes. Regardless of the formula, you should try to apply one or two coats so the lashes aren't weighed down. You should also just apply it to the outside of the lash & pull the brush upwards towards the brow.

Start at the base of your lashes and then wiggle the brush back and forth and then sweep the brush out to the end of your lashes. Make sure you don't take too long to coat all of your lashes because if you are putting extra coats of mascara on top of already wet mascara it will get really clumpy. If I get a few clumps I pinch my lashes between my fingers. The clumps come off on my fingers and I can wipe it on a tissue and it's all fixed. On a side not if you aren't experienced with mascara going with a lighter shade might not be a bad idea until you have the hang of it. I am also including a link to a mistake proof mascara. It has eraser wand so if you get mascara somewhere you didn't want it you can just use your handy dandy eraser and all fixed:)

You are going to have the same problem no matter if you buy a $5 tube of mascara or a $50 tube of mascara.
Use the brand you like.
With time, your lashes will not come uncurled. They just have to be 'trained' and that takes time.
You are correct to curl before applying mascara. Trying to curl afterward can cause breakage.

I would try a volume and lengthening mascara. Maybelline has a good line. I like the Volume Express Turbo Boost. Always curl your lashes before applying mascara to avoid clumping and breakage. Apply a second coat to the tips if necessary, but don't recurl them.

A friend of mine that was going to beauty school learned that you always curl your eye lashes first before applying mascara. You might try just putting mascara on the tips of your eye lashes instead of the entire lash. Of course you will have to use the same color as your lashes. Black on black, brown on brown.

Volume exact.
It works really good.
Telescopic (or something like that) mascara seems to work pretty good, but I just got that, can't tell yet.
Hope this helps! And don't worry, my eyelashes suck too! haha
Take care,
Sydney
