How to Apply Mascara

No eye make-up is complete without applying mascara. A little tricky to achieve, this article will provide insight on how to apply mascara.

There is a well-known fact that before application of any agent, surface must be prepared. Mascara application must be applied only after you have prepared your eyelashes sufficiently. Prepare your lashes by using an eyelash comb or damp toothbrush to comb them. If required, curl your lashes with an eyelash curler and apply all other eye makeup. Having the eyelashes separated and curled makes it easy to apply mascara as well as steady the hand.

Mascara application should be started from upper eyelash. Keeping your eyes open, start from the underside of upper eyelash with mascara brush and in an upward motion, finish at the tip of lashes. Keep your hand steady and firm. Do not blink at this time, as application is wet. A little zigzag movement of brush must follow this first coat to avoid clogging of lashes.

A thin second coat must follow a thin first coat. You might want to go ahead with single coat, but two thin coats will provide better definition than one thick coat. So it is better to go ahead with second coat. Before you apply second coat, be sure that first one has dried to avoid smudging and clogging of lashes.

After finishing with upper lashes, apply similar procedure on lower lashes. In upper lashes, motion of brush was vertical. However, for lower lashes, vertical movement, i.e. bottom to top is not recommended. Here you must use a sideways movement of wand. Keep your hand steady and move mascara wand in sideways movement to apply coat. Take care to not blink while mascara is still wet.

If there is any excess mascara, it can be removed by using an eyelash comb. If not removed, it clogs eyelashes and can blur vision. Later on, you might have difficulty in removing the clogs. So they must be removed while still wet.

How to remove eye mascara

Any harsh procedure will easily damage this delicate portion. You must, at all costs, avoid the color from entering your eyes. If allowed it causes irritation and may prove to be harmful. For removing, you have to be as careful as you were while applying mascara. To remove successfully, use a cotton bud dipped in a cosmetic cleanser and roll it over eyelashes keeping your eyes closed. Continue with this procedure till eyelashes is clean and mascara has been removed.
