Product Overview

Instructions for Use

1. Start with clean and dry eyelashes.
2. Unscrew the mascara wand from the tube and remove excess product by gently wiping the brush against the edge of the tube.
3. Position the mascara wand at the base of your upper eyelashes.
4. Gently wiggle the brush back and forth to ensure the base of your lashes is fully coated.
5. Sweep the brush upward from the base of the lashes to the tips, ensuring each lash is coated.
6. If more volume is desired, apply additional coats before the previous coat dries completely.
7. For lower lashes, use the tip of the brush to apply mascara with light, gentle strokes.
8. To remove the mascara, use a gentle eye makeup remover. Apply to a cotton pad and hold it over your closed eyes for a few seconds, then gently wipe away the mascara.

Troubleshooting Tips

• Clumping: If you notice clumping, use a clean lash brush to comb through your lashes while the mascara is still wet.
• Smudging: To prevent smudging, avoid touching your eyes shortly after application and ensure the mascara is fully dry.
• Difficulty Removing: If the mascara is difficult to remove, soak a cotton pad with a bit more eye makeup remover and hold it against the lashes for a longer period before gently wiping away.
• Flaking: If you experience flaking throughout the day, try applying fewer coats and avoid rubbing your eyes.
