Here are steps to prep for and apply Cry Baby mascara: Step One: Have client remove eye make-up, but go in with a cosmetic brush and remove any remaining make-up.Step Two: Apply eye pads to the bottom of the eye, under the lashes so the lashes are covered. This prevents the top lashes from sticking to the bottom during application.Step Three: Apply primer to the top lashes, fully coating the tops and bottoms of the lashes.Step Four: Use an eyelash curler to boost the lash’s curl. Our artist prefers a heated lash curler.Step Five: Mix your mascara formula. Our artist uses Cry Baby Mascara. Add more fibers in with the coating agent for a thicker appearance, less fibers for natural-looking mascara. Step Six: Beginning on top, apply the mascara. Separate the lashes using a pick.Step Seven: Use the mister to help dry the mascara and to help relieve any irritation the client may feel. Repeat on the opposite eye.Step Eight: Remove the eye pads from on top of the bottom lashes, and place it below the lashes to prevent any residue from falling on the face.Step Nine: Apply the primer on the bottom lashes.Step Ten: Apply mascara on the bottom lashes, fully coating the top and bottom of each lash. Use a pick to separate the lashes. Then, use the mister on the bottom lashes. Repeat on opposite side.Step Eleven: Remove any excess product from the client’s skin. This service is great for vacations, active lifestyles and brides-to-be who don’t want to cry off their mascara. The mascara should last an average of two weeks with the proper care.
