# 1 - When applying mascara on the lashes at the beginning, you should look up to apply it on the ends / roots of the lashes, which can cause spots on the eyelids, as the mascara is still wet.

So to avoid this, better apply from the root-up.

# 2 - The moment you take out the eyeshadow, do not rub it several times in the "bottle", inserting it and taking it out several times. This will dry out the paint, damaging the eyeshadow and causing the lashes to not look good.

# 3 - Do not use eyelash curlers after applying mascara. You should always use it on clean lashes and without mascara. Otherwise, you risk losing your eyelashes.

# 4 - Do not apply eyeshadow only on the bottom of the lashes. All the weight will go there and consequently, the volume will drop. Apply eyeshadow to each area.

# 5 - A common mistake is sharing your personal mascara with friends. This is one of the easiest ways for germs to spread and can lead to itching up to eye infection.

# 6 - How you apply is also important. You should not only apply it from the bottom up, but also move it from side to side, so that there are no joined strands and your eyelashes look thicker and longer.

# 7 - Do not wear the same eyeshadow for too long. After 3-6 months, the eyeshadow should be replaced with a new one.
