Buisness card mascara trick!

It's Tips and Tricks Tuesday!!

Good evening my lovelies!!

Have you ever sat down and created an amazingly awesome look on your eyes to have it foiled up with those little mascara marks? You all know exactly the ones I am talking about..they are left when you apply your mascara and your lashes have touched your lid. So you try to fix it just to either smear the mascara or accidentally wipe some shadow away along with the mascara. UGH!!!! Don't freak, I have just the fix for you!! Now this isn't a new trick at all but it never hurts to toss it back out there just in case someone doesn't know or simply needs to be reminded.

First you need any standard business card. I recommend doing the bottom lashes first. Because if you are like me and tilt your head down to apply your bottom mascara you won't press your freshly mascara lashes against your lids, defeating the purpose of the business card!!  Now, place the card as close as you can to your waterline UNDERNEATH the lashes and lightly pull down. Like this.

 Apply your mascara as you normally would. I like this technique because it allows the maximal amount of product on each individual lash without causing clumping. It also protects your face from any smearing that can occur. To do the top lashes just follow the same rule. Place the card as close as you can to the base of the lashes and gently lift them with the business card. Apply the mascara in a zig-zag motion starting from the base to the tip for maximal product distribution. Like this.

And your finished!! It really is that easy and guess what? No nasty marks left on your lids!! Now go strut your stuff and show off those amazing eyes girls! Do any of you know another way beside buying a mascara shield (which ELF has an amazing one, check out my ELF haul for details) ?.  I hope this was helpful and as always thank you for reading. Don't forget to follow this blog--It makes me smile!

Until next time!!!
