It’s all too common to find liquid eyeliner riding your brow as soon as you open your eyes, or eyeshadow collecting in the ridges of your lower lid, creating shadows and ruining the bright eye you were aiming for. Using an index card can create great, speedy results for all your eye makeup woes.

To keep layers of mascara on your lashes where they belong, use a piece of cardstock, or an index card. Carefully cut a shape which roughly matches the shape of your eye. Line it up with your lash line, use this as a shield for the rest of your eye area, and apply all you wish. This method also helps you coat lashes from every angle. Your lashes will be covered, and none of your other handiwork will be ruined.
