5. Boost Your Lash Game with Primer

One of the most important things to remember after you’ve applied a lash primer, especially a good white one, is to wait for 10-30 seconds before coating your lashes with mascara. Now that little break in the action may be a bit of an inconvenience, but it makes all the difference!

The reason behind waiting here is because you should wait for the primer to dry completely. If you do not, the mascara will stick less well and your lashes may even clump together; that is just plain wrong. In addition, your primed eyeliner will not look pale and washed out if you allow the primer to dry properly. You really should have some popping bold colors, right?

Maybe do something in the meantime: put lip balm on or look at your phone. When the primer is dried, apply your mascara as normal for perfect voluminous and defined lashes. Believe me, that little extra time will pay off in the end!

We have all experienced the fact that mascaras tend to clump together and it is for sure one of the most annoying things. But fear not, for I have a simple trick you can use such occasions. A little warmth will also make the formula thinner. Make sure to always keep your mascara cap on tight, and place the wand in a glass of hot water for few minutes so that you can easily remove any clumps. The warmth of your skin helps to melt the product out, making it easier to apply.
