The one tool you need for your best lashes ever

If we had to pick one beauty product we couldn’t live without, mascara would more than likely be at the top of the list. Don’t make us choose please, that’s just mean.

For a lot of make-up addicts their mascara is like a security blanket they just don’t want to give up. . However! Mascara application is something that should be so simple, but can also go terribly, terribly wrong.

Smudging clumping and even sneezing are all little mishaps that we end up facing at some point.Unless you’re a mascara god. Fortunately, there’s some easy tricks that you can use every time to ensure flawless application. No falsies necessary, yay!

If your mascara has gotten a little dry, or become too thick to use, soak it in a cup of hot water for a few minutes to loosen it up for easier application.

If you want the all-day staying-power that waterproof mascara provides, you can expect it to be tougher to remove at the end of the day. Use a normal mascara as a base and then apply a coat of waterproof mascara over the top. Unless you can pull off the single tear drop like Lauren…

If you want to go all out with your long lashes, go for a lash primer. Consider it the same as a foundation primer for those who are serious about wearing some dramatic lashes all day every day. It gives your lashes better grip so your mascara goes on easier and smoother.

The old reliable technique to get the best of your mascara means you shouldn’t pump the wand in and out of the container as it dries it out faster. Instead swirl the wand around the container.

Avoid clumps by wiping off the tip of the wand with tissue so you don’t have the feeling of terror of your lashes becoming one big clump of uni-lash, no one wants that.

Get the most out of your eye lash curler with a hair-styling staple. Your hair dryer. Give your curler a blast of hot air for longer-lasting curl. Just make sure it’s not too hot before you use it, you don’t want to lose any of those precious lashes.
