IS IT TRUE that mascara can't be applied with mouth closed?

My husband always makes fun of me for opening my mouth when applying mascara. If I don't consciously try to keep my mouth closed (and who cares if it's open?) it opens every time.

Yes -It can be applied with your mouth closed~ How do I know? ~I NEVER apply mine with my mouth open.. Though most, i believe, do apply it this way~

Sure....I can apply it on anywoman with my mouth closed.

I've never seen it happen but it could be possible

nope , i never noticed it, next time i will see that when i am using mascara

Yes, it can be applied with your mouth closed but it takes a lot of concentration. If you pay attention, most people that apply mascara to someone else also open their mouths. Crazy, uh?

I have never tried it but I would love to know too lol xxgood discussion

I have never payed much attention whether my mouth was opened or closed. I will from now on. LOL

I can do it with my mouth closed, but i always end up sticking my tongue out.

I use eyeliner more than mascara, but same concept. I read that it's a natural reaction in order to make the skin/muscles taut around the eyes. Amazing how our bodies knew that this would help, isn't it? Once it was brought to my attention, I realized how stupid it looked. So I now intentionally keep my mouth closed. It does take some amount of concentration to do it, however, so if I'm in a rush, my mouth is hanging open & I just don't care! Aloha!

I must be an odd one cuz I always apply my mascara with my mouth closed. I've never felt the need to open my mouth when applying mascara. Yes, I'm a weird one, folks! Even a certain friend of mine says I'm freaky. :P

LOL I read that years ago so made a point of trying it out and now I automatically leave my mouth closed when applying make up. I suppose it was like a personal challenge:)

the skin needs to be tight while applying mascara thats the reason for all the funny faces,it can never be applied with mouth closed,

I think it IS possible to apply mascara with mouth shut. but normally while applying mascara to my lashes my mouth remains open.

Hahahahah. It's hard, but it can be done, as I have done it with my mouth closed. It's an effort though. :)

I tried after reading your post! And realised that I've been doing it with my mouth open! Then I tried with my mouth cloesd. I could do it but it's more difficult with mouth closed. :)

I have actually just noticed that I put mascara on with my mouth open very recently. Since I noticed, it has been driving me nuts. I have attempted to do it without opening my mouth, but then i catch myself doing it! I don't know if it is possible!

Not really, I apply my mascara perfectly with my mouth closed, but my eyes are very much open I thought they would pop out! hahaha!

I have never tried any sort of make up. But after reading this I am keen on trying it. Will let you know once done :)

YEs, it's true it cannot be done. Just like when you are feeding your baby baby food, your mouth opens automatically as well, its liek you are trying to show him/her what to do. WIerd..
