Many women are familiar with this problem - no matter how hard you try to apply mascara to your eyelashes, it still clumps and the hairs stick together. And this greatly spoils the whole makeup. Whereas professional makeup artists can easily create spectacular fluffy eyelashes with mascara.

What do they do to achieve this effect? OBOZ.UA has collected some of the main life hacks that will make your eyelashes look like false ones.

Check the condition of the mascara

Every time you open a tube of mascara, air gets inside. Over time, this dries out the product, makes it stickier and starts to clump instead of applying evenly. Usually, with regular daily use, the product begins to dry out about 10-15 weeks after the first opening of the tube. After that, it is better to replace the mascara with a new one.

Do not apply too much

The main principle of quality makeup is that less is more. This also applies to mascara. If you put too much product on your lashes, it's not surprising that it will begin to clump and clump instead of emphasize them. To ensure that you always have exactly the right amount of mascara on the brush, wipe off the excess on the edge of the tube or use a tissue.

Don't make straight upward movements with the brush

It's a big mistake to put the mascara brush to your eyelashes and just move it up along the hairs. Such movements cause the product to clump. To effectively distribute it over the hairs, move the brush upward while moving it from side to side. This will also allow you to color the lashes better.

Take your time

Just like any other makeup product, mascara needs to settle and dry. That is, if you apply it in several layers, as recommended, to get the most effective look, give the product time to dry between applications. If you rush and paint your lashes again with the mascara that hasn't dried, it will start to clump and clump. So, take a break between applying subsequent coats. And don't forget to wiggle the brush.
