Instead of taking the wand and brushing her lashes with the mascara, Taylor instead uses the tip to coat the lashes in the mascara first before then brushing it through.

She then waits for it to dry completely and uses a cotton swab to dab away any excess product left on her eyelid.

“I just tried this and OMG I have freakin eyelashes now,” one person commented on the video.

“Guys, it worked and I have like no lashes,” another said.

One woman said she’s 50 and she’s been applying her mascara the same way for her whole life.

However, others were a bit more cautious about trying out the method, saying they would be afraid of poking themselves in the eye with the mascara wand.

Taylor explained that she usually takes it slower than she showed in the video.
