Curl up your eyelashes before you apply mascara. This will make them look longer, and it will make your eyes appear alert and bright. Carefully squeeze and hold the device at the base of your lashes. Keep repeating as you work your way up to the tips of your lashes. This gives your lashes a natural curl instead of a sharp angle.
