According to Ms. Necessity…

What can you do if your mascara is on its last legs and you can’t lay it to rest just yet, because you haven’t any mascaraed “ladies in waiting” in store? According to the Divine Ms. N., there is something you can do that just might get you through. Simply immerse the tightly closed tube of mascara into a glass or mug of hot water and let it sit for a couple of minutes. This quick hot soak will soften the waxes and oils in the mascara loosening it up perfectly for a coat or two of what might be your mascara’s last swan song. You never know…with a bit of luck, you might even get a few bonus rounds out of your mascara with this handy little trick. *idea*
