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.

Beauty Quickie: When applying mascara you should wiggle the wand as you pull it through from roots to tip. Wiggling separates the lashes making them look fuller and not all stuck together.

Put it to the Test

Beauty Quickie: When it comes to testing to see if a foundation is the correct shade for you you need to remember two things:

natural light
jawline

Okay so what does your jawline and natural light have to do with choosing your foundation? You should always test out your tint of choice on your jawline in natural to ensure your makeup matches your neck. We all have seen horror story photos of women that seemed to be two different shades. Don’t be apart of the epidemic, test correctly and your makeup will blend naturally.
