Mascara problems :(

So every day through out the day my mascara will flake off and fall around my
Eyes and it's just so annoying! I have to literally check my Makeup a lot to make sure I don't have anything there. Does anyone know what I can do to stop this? I've tried applying my mascara 2 or 3 coats at a time so it's not dry when I apply it, I don't curl my lashes after mascara cus I know that can cause it too. I use the collossal mascara right now but no matter what mascara I use it always happens.. Even if the mascara is brand new.

The only thing I could thing I can think of is if it's 6months or older but you said it still happens when new. Sometimes this happens to my sister, try not putting as much mascara on.

Maybe a primer could help? I heard somewhere that if you apply a light coat of clear mascara/brow gel to your lashes after your mascara dries that will help. I have never tried this, nor do I know anyone who does this so I have no idea if it actually works.

I only put 2 the most 3 coats of mascara never anything more than that but I do it right after one another so it doesn't get dry in between coats cus I know that'll cause flaking too.. But I'll try maybe a little less

I suggest you try maybe another mascara , maybe A more expensive one than your normal budget. I never apply more than one cost , maybe because you add so many coats it gets fat and that occurs. If not try to put the mascara and buy yourself clear mascara which locks the mascara into place.

Flaking can be from the mascara drying out. you can put a few drops of a lubricating eye drop into your mascara to bring it back to life :)

I've noticed I don't flake off when I use Too Faced "better than sex" mascara! I also curl my lashes before and after applying.

Hmmm maybe the place where you store your mascara is causing it to dry out. I agree with Cristin about adding some eye drops to your mascara. Also try using a primer and wipe off the brush before you apply it to your lashes so that it takes off any dried on mascara. I also only ever apply 1 coat of mascara because I find sometimes more than 1 coat can cause flaking.
