1. 
   

1. ~Never, ever pump the wand - this adds air to the mascara container, which will only make your mascara dry out faster.
2. ~As a general rule, brown or soft black are best for daytime; black works best for night.
3. ~Use less mascara on lower lashes than on top lashes. Or forego mascara on lower lashes for a more casual look.
4. ~If your mascara smells funny or is more than six months old, chuck it. The eyes are very sensitive to bacteria.
5. ~After you've coated lashes with mascara, add just one more layer to the outer corners. The extra coat will make your lashes look especially long.
