    Make sure your eyelashes are clean. Using a mirror, look closely and fit your eyelashes (top row) into the mouth of the curler. Make sure your curler is positioned at the base of the lases, and look slightly down. Press down for about 10-30 seconds and gently release.

  2. Step 2

    Repeat for other eye.

  3. Step 3

    Holding your mascara firmly, dip once into the tube, and gently brush off any excess mascara using a tissue. Hold the brush at the bottom of the lashes, and gently rotate the brush as you apply the mascara to promote lash separation.

  4. Step 4

    After applying your first coat attempt to separate your lashes using an eyelash brush.

  5. Step 5

    Apply a second coat. After both coats are finished, brush a little more mascara onto the very ends of your lashes to add a little more length.

Tips & Warnings
  • I dont recommend mascara being used on the bottom lashes. It can end u looking cheap.
