Here's why:
* Safety: Curling after mascara can cause your lashes to stick to the curler, leading to them being pulled out or broken. Mascara hardens the lashes, making them brittle and more prone to damage.
* Effectiveness: Mascara weighs down the lashes. Curling them after applying mascara will not hold the curl as well and can even pull the curl back down.
* Cleanliness: Mascara on the curler will transfer to your eyelid and make a mess. It also makes the curler harder to clean.
Here's the correct order:
1. Curl your eyelashes with an eyelash curler.
2. Apply mascara.
