Curved mascara brushes. These mascara wands are designed to lift and curl your lashes. When using this type of wand, move the mascara from the lash base to the tips, using a wiggling motion to prevent clumping.
Comb mascara brushes. These wands separate lashes to achieve a thicker look. Make sure to use an eyelash curler before using a comb mascara brush in order to provide more length.
Flexible mascara brushes. These brushes are built to move more freely and separate lashes at the root better then other brushes.
