I usually apply a couple swipes on top just because I wipe a lot of product off the wand with a tissue and apply multiple thin coats so there's not enough mascara on the brush to coat the top from underneath..
Only if some of my eyeshadow had lots of fallout on my lashes and it's obvious. Sometimes I'll use a light color and I'll do a light touch of mascara at the top. Or even throughout the day I'll sometimes do just the end tips bc they've been touching the area where I usually highlight my brow and they're lighter or shimmery.
Yes, i do. I am scared of curlers so it's a good way to curl mine, and i find it gives them more volume. But i only apply one coat compared to two or three i apply from the bottom up, more and you would weigh them down.
I usually just apply from the bottom. But if I want super-thick fake looking lashes, I'll apply a layer from the top, then two from the bottom. It really works.
I have tried but it really weighed my lashes down. I use waterproof to keep them curley. My cousin does this and she "spins" the brush upwards and it curls her lashes. I wish it was that easy for me to curl my lashes.
