Yeah that sucks! I bought something similar to that a while back....think it was a lash "lengthening" mascara.....anyhow it had these tiny little fibers about a 1/2 cm long...sort of looked like little threads of silk. But it was the same as your experience--lots of chunks in my eyes. Cant believe they put that in something that supposed to go on your eyes. You can almost see the lawsuit!

I tried this stuff and I wasn't real crazy about it either. I was frustrated with all my mascara, no matter what kind I bought, getting goopy, leaving lumps, etc. Until a friend of mine showed me a trick and it works for ALL kinds of mascara.

When you pull the wand out, scrape off the excess into the opening of the tube, working your way around the whole brush. Then grab a paper towel and rub even more off the brush. You'd be surprised how little mascara it takes to do the job, and getting rid of all that extra goo helps keep the blobs down. It works like a charm!

Get a seperate mascara wand They usually have a smudging sponge on other end. Use it to comb out your lashes after you've applied the clear stuff. it will get rid of any excess so you don't have a buildup. Then apply your colored mascara.

If you wanna faster way to make your lashes appear thicker espicially at the base. Use a eyeliner closest your lash color. Apply it as close to lashes as possible. Then use a smudger to smugde the eyeliner down toward your lashes.

(....ya I'm closet make up geek....)

With some of the stuff going for 6 or 7 dollars a tube, (highway robbery) I stick with the cheaper stuff. Like Maybelline Great Lash. Cover Girl is good stuff, too.

Maybelline stuff is quite expensive over here, but ive never been that impressed with it :-3

Ladies, please don't wear so much makeup. Nothing turns me off more than a beautiful lady who looks like she applied her eyeliner with a magic marker (the old kind, not a Sharpie). Huge fake lashes just look huge and fake. Rouge often looks like a spooky clown face.

I love the natural look of a lady's face. As I understand it, good makeup looks like no makeup. Before you cover that mole, get an opinion from a guy that likes you. Cindy Crawford has a mole, y'know. A big flesh-colored lump actually draws my attention faster. I wonder what's underneath.

And please stop using different-colored lip-liner. You look like a drag queen.

You're beautiful as you are. Accept that first. Now use the makeup to accentuate, not cover. We'll love that. :yh_flower
