You probably already use<strong> primers for any step of your makeup routine<\/strong>, from foundation to eyeshadow. We want to convince those who don&#8217;t, though, because trust us, <strong>using a primer for your mascara<\/strong> has lots of advantages!<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Mascara will be easier to apply, and it will last longer.<\/strong> Even the ones that tend to fall off or get clumpy will behave with a primer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. You will never need fake eyelashes.<\/strong> Most primers contain fibers that stick to your eyelashes, making them longer and giving you the doe-eyed look without too much effort.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. If your eyelashes are very straight, primers will help you keep the curve<\/strong> that you get with your eyelash curler, thanks to the fixing polymers contained in the different formulas.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not least, remember that<strong> primers have a moisturizing action<\/strong> and that applying them for a longer period of time will fortify your lashes, and actually improve their health! Not bad for a gesture that only takes a few seconds, right?<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-89691 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-post_listing_preview'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.theblondesalad.com\/en\/makeup\/why-mascara-primer\/attachment\/benefit-cosmetics-theyre-real-tinted-lash-primer\/'><img width=\"450\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theblondesalad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Benefit-Cosmetics-They\u2019re-Real-Tinted-Lash-Primer.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post_listing_preview size-post_listing_preview\" alt=\"Benefit Cosmetics They\u2019re Real!
