Use Lash Primer to Prevent Clumpy Eyelashes When Using Mascara

Dream - When using mascara, we definitely want to achieve long and thick eyelashes. Unfortunately, often times the opposite effect occurs.

The eyelashes appear clumpy, the mascara clumps and looks messy. This is certainly very annoying. Why does this happen?

"Clumpy eyelashes are not only caused by application techniques, but can also occur because the product dries and sticks to the spoolie," said Shawn Towne, a professional makeup artist.

1. Clean the Spoolie

Mascara with a dry formula, when used, causes the eyelashes to clump. Towne suggests to regularly clean the spoolie after use. Dream friends can clean it with a cotton bud.

2. Start with Thin Layers

Towne said, one big mistake that many people often make is applying mascara excessively. So, try to apply it thinly, but repeatedly. Do it patiently for stunning results.

"Make sure you apply the mascara thinly," said Towne.

3. Use Lash Primer

Lash primer is a product that is applied to the eyelashes before using mascara. Its function is to help the mascara last longer.

"Start from the base of the eyelashes and wiggle the spoolie back and forth at the bottom while lifting it upwards. Comb several times until the eyelashes look coated," said Towne.

Causes of Eyelashes Easily Falling Out When Using Mascara

Dream - There are several types of essential makeup products that women always carry when they are active, one of which is mascara. The eyes will look fresher and bigger when wearing it.

There are also women who are reluctant to wear mascara and prefer to do a lash lift. Some also prefer a natural look for their eyelashes to prevent them from falling out.

Wearing mascara and using an eyelash curler can indeed cause eyelashes to fall out for some people. The causes vary, but usually it is because the eyelashes are curled too tightly.

The Use of Mascara also Affects It

The use of mascara also affects the eyelashes falling out. Mascara that has expired is not good to use on the skin or other body areas, especially around the eyes.

Beauty Content Creator, Christina Immanuel also suggests not using mascara that has been opened for more than 3 months.

"The shelf life of mascara is only up to 3 months. So after 3 months, if you still use it, it means you are using expired mascara," she said in her Instagram post.

Expiration Date is Different from Use Period

The use period of cosmetic products is different from the expiration date. Similar cosmetic products can have the same use period, but the expiration date depends on the production time.

Dream friends can calculate the use period of cosmetic products from the time of opening the packaging, so actually the makeup does not really last until the expiration date.

Pay attention to the use period of various types of products before opening the packaging to be more economical. Find out the use period of each cosmetic product to avoid using expired makeup or skincare products.
