Hello my beautiful friends!
I have finally pulled myself together and I have now asked my mom for makeup. I only want to wear mascara (and foundation if needed).
I don't want my mascara to clump, so is there any good way to put it on? ;)

Start at the base of the lashline and wiggle the wand up through the lash. Also don't apply too many coats, max around 2 or 3 depends on the mascara :)

The Covergirl Clump-Crusher is magic! You can put on as many coats as you want and it won't clump! Just make sure to let the coats dry before you add another one to get the full effect.

Wiggle like crazy :O and I use a comb through my lashes just in case.

I agree with Vanessa! Finish off your usual mascara with one coat of Maybelline One by One, it's great for separating your lashes. Try twisting the mascara wand as you take it out of the tube so it gets rid of excess product.
You can also use:
- q-tip with makeup remover. Gently move it along the clumps
- a spoolie brush. This is probably the easiest and most efficient method!
- mini fan brush. Brush it along your mascara wand to pick up some of the product then use the fan brush as if it were your mascara wand.

It depends a lot on your brush. Lots of bristles= less clumping. Separate clumps with tip of brush... And be patient!
