FYI, IMO, applying mascara is a perishable skill.
It is NOT like riding a bike, where once your brain makes the connections and you “get it,” you never forget it. No, if you don’t use your mascara application skills, you lose ’em, man.

Yet another thing I’ve learned this month…
I was reminded of this valuable life lesson yesterday because I wore a considerable amount of makeup in public for the first time in weeks, which I did because I met a friend at Panera down the street for lunch, and then ran a few errands afterward.
I did foundation, concealer, brows, cream blush and cream eyeshadow, and then came the mascara.

Sigh… The mascara.
I don’t know where I took a wrong turn, but somewhere along the way it did. (It may have been at the fifth or sixth coat.)
There was also a completely useless lash comb up in the mix, which, instead of separating my lashes, gathered them together into large spikes, and then those spikes somehow combined into one massive mega spike.
I looked like an anime character gone so, so wrong…
এটা কি কখনো তোমার সাথে ঘটেছিল? I mean, I realize that I was the one holding the wand and the comb; therefore, I’m ultimately responsible for everything that happened with them, but I swear, it felt like I was possessed by a spiteful makeup demon ? who really, really wanted a good laugh.
Also, on the positive side, even though my lashes were a hot mess, when I looked in the mirror, I didn’t look sad. ?
Small steps.
