Brilio.net - One of the challenges that monolid eye owners often face is when trying to create a bold and long-lasting eye makeup look. The shape of the eyelids that tend to be flat and do not have deep folds often makes makeup products, especially mascara, easier to move to the upper area of the eyelid. As a result, an eye look that has been neatly designed can look messy in just a short time.
Mascara, which is supposed to emphasize eyelashes, can actually be a source of problems. When the eyes blink or when the eyelid touches the eyelashes that have been coated with mascara, black spots can stick to the top of the eyelid. This not only interferes with appearance, but also lowers self-confidence, especially if you don't have time to do touch-ups in the middle of activities.
Many monolid eye owners end up frustrated and choose to avoid using mascara altogether. However, with the right technique and products, mascara can still provide a dramatic effect without the risk of smudging. Understanding the characteristics of monolid eyes is key to finding a solution that is effective and comfortable to use every day.

If you are confused, you can try a trick from Instagram user @ymliamakeupartist. Through one of the videos uploaded, the owner of monolid eyes revealed a surefire technique for producing more curled and neat mascara . After investigating, there are several things to consider, from the product to the application technique.
As reported by briliobeauty.net from Instagram @ymliamakeupartist on Wednesday (16/4), one of the important things is the shape of the spoolie or mascara brush. To make it neater and not block, use mascara that has a small applicator. If necessary, you can use mascara made of iron because it has a smaller tooth texture.

Tricks to get curly eyelashes for those with monolid eyes
Mascara with a metal or iron applicator is often considered more suitable for monolid eyes because its slim and precise design makes it easy to apply without making the mascara stick too much to the lashes. This type of applicator usually does not pick up too much product, so the resulting layer of mascara is thinner and dries quickly.
This is especially important for monolid eyes, where the lashes often come into direct contact with the upper lid when the eyes blink. With a quick-drying, non-clumping mascara, the risk of mascara smearing or leaving black marks on the lids can be minimized. In addition, the small, stiff shape of the applicator makes it easy for users to reach the corners of the eyes and lift the lashes from the roots, giving a curling effect without the need for many strokes that can actually cause smudges.

Now for how to use it also needs to be considered. First of all, use an eyelash curler first. Then apply iron mascara to give volume on the inside towards the middle of the lashes.
" This is to give the illusion of a sharper lash line without waterline eyeliner ," he explained.

If so, then use fine curly mascara from the middle to the tip of the lashes. If you want to give an individual effect, you can apply mascara by sweeping the tip of the lashes vertically (standing). As a finishing touch, you can use the fine curly mascara for the lower lashes.
" So far, it's not clumpy and the curly hair is really beautiful ," said Instagram user @ymliamakeupartist.
