This week we are blogging about mascara in order to help you apply like a pro! Some of our Beauty Quickies this week have touched on how to add volume or length to your lashes. Today, we want to share a few tricks to say goodbye to clumpy mascara forever.

Tip #1

Keep clumps at bay by sweeping a new, clean wand through lashes while they are wet. How can a new wand be used when the product only came with one? Buy some wands online or hit up your local Sephora that are sure to carry them. Keep in mind though at Sephora, beauty consultants will know them as “spoolies.”

Tip #2

Remove any excess mascara formula from the wand before application by wiping the wand on a tissue first. Yes, clumps can also be removed by combing through lashes with a lash comb. Nevertheless, if you are not a fan of using combs this tip will help you achieve the same outcome.

How to Fix Hair Product Build-Up

How to Fix Hair Product Build-Up

Hair Quickie: Remember, not all hair is created equally, so what works for one person may not work for someone else. There are some that can pile on product after product and they will not experience any real build-up or backlash. Build-up can occur from the use of gels, hairspray, pomades and even conditioners. Nevertheless, if you notice that products seem to build up on top of the hair there is a easy solution. Try mixing 1 tablespoon baking soda with your regular shampoo once a week. Wash hair like normal then rinse out the concoction and dry strands as usual.
