Because it stretches out the skin around the eyes. Go ahead, and try it, you'll see. You need your eyelashes to be extended as much as possible so it won't get on your skin.
The same reasoning is why we open our mouths to put contacts on our eyes. We need to stretch out the eyes as much as possible to make it easier to put contacts on.

I always put my mascara on with my mouth closed.

When you open your mouth it relaxes the eye muscle which makes it possible to put on your mascara without blinking.

I can put it on with my mouth closed, but great - now I'm gonna be all thinking about next time I apply.
Way to make me self-conscious! LOL

HA HA HA !!! That is SO funny! I've wondered this myself, as I catch myself making all kinds of weird faces when doing this. Probably for the same reason we see kids concentrating with their tongue gyrating all over. It's one of those divinely human quirks.....

For the same reason I have seen men with their tongues sticking out while measuring things.

I don't wear mascara so that question doesn't apply to me. I can't wear it because it irritates my eyes and causes them to itch and burn.

Why is this in the GWS section? Also, have, you ever tried to put in contacts? Same concept.
