    Does the maskara makes your sight a bit foggy?
    It's the first time I am wearing the maskara and my sight is quite foggy. I cannot see as clear as I normally see.

    Is it something wrong with it??
    Should I remove it and redoit??

    Thank you.

    What brand is it? When did you get it? Are you wearing contacts?

    That never happens to me. Did you accidentally poke your eye with the mascara wand?

    It shoudln't make it foggy. Maybe you were applying too close to the lashline and it got in your eyes or maybe your lashes aren't curled enough and get in your sight? Try an eyelash curler.

    I'm terrible at putting mascara on, I usually end up gluing my eyelids together with it and having to prise them apart and after that, my sight goes foggy for a bit, is that like what happened to you?

    My sight goes foggy when I use cheap mascaras, but normally I have no problems, as long as you have applied it correctly. Does the same if I use cheap eyeliner.

    Sounds a bit dodgy, I'd bin it if I were you.

    my eyes go foggy when i use some stuff. i've got quite sensitive skin so just put it down to disagreeing with the chemicals in some of them.
    try a different brand, and make sure its a new one still in date

    I wear contacts and sometimes a tiny tiny bit of make-up gets on them and makes my sight blurry.

    If you don't wear contacts then yeah, i'd recommend trying a different technique or brand of mascara...

    The brand is Vital. It was very cheap and I got it in a high street shop. Am not wearing contact. I did not poke my eye with the wand. I just put it on and after 30mins my sight went a bit foggy..

    Can you inform me with any good brands of an eyelash curler please.
    When I have applied it my eyelashes got very curlier and longer I just dont really understand what happened.

    Not really I did not glue my eyelids together..I normally put it and after a while I was seeing a bit foggy..am not good at putting maskara on. It happened to me three times now so I put a very little amount on my eyelashes

    Change mascaras immediately. I recommend a brand like Clinique - it is a little pricier but not horribly so. But their make-up is hypoallergenic so situations like that are less likely to happen.
    Also, you asked about eyelash curlers from someone else! You can get really good eyelash curlers for a relatively good price from Boots. Good ones are the No7 ones.
    I personally use Shu Uemura. They are much more expensive so I wouldn't recommend getting them unless you're going to use them on a regular basis.

    Depends, sometimes that happens to me but I wear contacts and I put it down to me accidently touching my eye with the mascara wand. Just take it off with make up remover and get a new one.
