How can you lengthen the life of mascara?

Mascara has two problems: bacteria growth and it dries out over time. If after every time you use the mascara wand you wash it with soap and water and rub it over a paper towel to dry it before you insert it into the mascara cylinder, you reduce the chance of contaminating the mascara with bacteria from your eyes. The mascara on the wand dries out as you use the wand daily so by cleaning off all the mascara, you are not reinserting dry mascara. A tip: Cut the wand off an old mascara cap, wash the inside of the cap, and use it to close the current mascara you are using. Save a couple of old mascara wands and can keep them in a small jar of alcohol (like an empty prescription pill container). When you are ready to use mascara, take one of the wands from the jar, rinse, shake it dry, and insert it into the cylinder. Move it up and down to coat it with mascara and after you remove it put the cap back on. This will ensure a clean wand and keep the mascara from drying out. Another tip: After you coat the mascara wand, wipe the wand gently on a paper towel (it resists tearing). This will remove the excess mascara so you can apply it evenly on your lashes.


Is old mascara bad?

It depends how old it is, you can tell if it's old when it a little less liquid as it was before, or if it has more clumps. It really isn't good to keep wearing mascara that is old or has those tendencies because it can cause damage to your eyelashes (it will cause them to fall out). I suggest you purchase a new mascara every 5 months and don't forget to keep cleaning the mascara wand this will help with any clumping even if it is fairly new, it'll also prevent bacteria. Hope this helps :D

Why after some time does your mascara and make up turn mushy and goopy?

I am not exactly sure of "expiry dates" for mascara but after a while they do become mucky.I would imagine its because of all the air exposed to it after pulling the applicator in & out.They do advise you to throw out mascara after 3 mths.It does get old & can cause eye infections if your using old mascara.Have you ever noticed your eyes itching after applying it? If so I would toss it & buy new.Best Of Luck! because like anything that has a life, things get old! the constant in and out movement of the wand creates wind that dries the inside of the bottle. to help prolong (just by a little) the lifespan of mascara, move the mascara wound as less as possible whether you are trying to gather mascara onto the wand or simply applying it to your eyes. but this is a good sign for u to get new mascara and something new is always better! :)

Can you just dip a tube of waterproof mascara into water to see if its really waterproof?

no, this is extremely silly, and just wastes your mascara. If it says its waterproof mascara, then it is. Try it out, a good mascara is colossal by maybelline, i recommend this mascara
