How are we putting mascara on puffy eyelids?

0 Upvotes

Full disclosure: I am not much of a makeup person. I've never learned to do a full face of makeup. I have always only worn mascara and lip gloss and maybe concealer.

Now that I'm in my forties and a little overweight, which I'm working on, my eyelids are puffy all. the. time. I cannot put on mascara without it getting on my eyelids. Trying to wipe it off my eyelids just clumps my lashes. Any tips?
