" Hi my name is Yvette Parish and thank you for visiting expertvillage.com. When it is a really, really big wand and it is really full and really wide and really square, sometimes it grabs too much product and it just makes it a gushy mess. I'm sure that you have had mascaras like that before, where it just made a little mess when you tried to screw it back into the package, and then all of the mascara kind of squishes out the side. That is just to much product. So I would just recommend if you have a really big, fluffy, mascara wand, at least take a paper towel and remove the excess of it, because it is just too much, being such a big wand. It is grabbing so much product from the applicator, so really you don't need that much mascara. So the bigger the wand, the more product it grabs, the more product that is removed and when you try to apply it to your lashes, it is very clumpy, it is very thick, you my have it spread here and it makes a little mess. So it is kind of like paint, you are playing with paint here so you need to be careful."
