Here's a mascara trick we hadn't heard of til today: To prevent clumping, lots of makeup artists will tuck a business card above the lashes during application—simply brush your lashes up against the card with the mascara wand and, ta-da, clump-free eyelashes! If you don't have any spare business cards lying around, you can pick up already-cut-into-curves Lash Cards for $5.99 for a pack of 10 (double-sided!).
