    Default A little mascara trick I just started to use:

    So I started using the Cover Girl Lash Exact mascara (the purple one) several months ago, and liked it. It got the tips of my lashes really well, and that new brush style worked a lot better for me. Some clumps still, though. Here's the link for that one:

    http://www.covergirl.com/products/pr...hexact_mascara

    Then, my best friend told me she absolutely loved the brand new mascara from CG, the Lash Blast (the orange one); so I got that one and tried it too. I really liked how thick it made my lashes, but it did not make them as long as the Lash Exact.

    Lash Blast: http://www.covergirl.com/products/pr...hblast_mascara

    So, I doubled up. I first use the Lash Blast, one or two thin coats (I wipe the wand down with a tissue before applying); and then apply one coat of the Lash Exact. Works like a charm!!

    Just in case you wanted to try it with these two.

    Another thing..I noticed that as soon as the mascara is starting to go bad, but before it starts to smell, it will start to clump more. Just a little clue to help you figure out when to change it in case you've had it less than three months.

    Yup I do this too. A lengthener first, then a layer of thickener. Then add more thickener just to tips to make them super long and fake looking.

    Ha! I thought I was the only girl who uses two types of mascara together! I've never tried the Lash Blast but you've piqued my interest. Currently I use something silver..Voluminous something-rather, and something in a green tube. I should read my makeup lol.

    What am I doing wrong? It makes my lashes look like spiky weird spider legs. I've always been a fan a wiping the wands down to prevent clumping, so I'm doing that....but it looks horrible on me. Very tacky.

    So ... when you apply the mascara, are you doing the little wiggle move, where you kind of wiggle the wand on the way up, or just going straight up with the wand? I've tried it a couple different ways and it continues to looks like spider legs. Also, are you waiting for the first one to dry, or layering them wet?

    I actually use four different types of mascara, however the first coat being the white primer, second - thickiner, third - length, last - a sealant so I won't get the mascara line smudges on top from perspiring.

    I need to start finding a mascara combo that works for me. I want to have lashes again. Today I didn't wear falsies! It is a tough work standard to break.
