Coincidental or Not?

Hey y'all,

I'm a super beginner at makeup. I decided to sign up for ipsy so that I could try things because I get so overwhelmed at the stores and the idea of a makeup counter frightens me! People, eep! My August bag had this Pixi Mascara in it. I've used other mascara recently, like Lash Accelerator by Rimmel London, and some from Manic Panic. This time, with the Pixi, the rim of my upper lashes on one side became kind of sore immediately after use. At first I thought the mascara clumped together weirdly and liked tugged on my lashes. I don't really know if this is plausible; it is nonetheless what I figured. It's not red or bumpy or anything. It's just...sore. That's the best I can think to describe it. So I tried to like just let it sort itselfs out and it bothered me all day.

I was curious if anyone here has had a similar experience? Or did I find some new special way to injure myself? lol

The idea that it might be some mild allergic reaction of some kind just came to me, though with it being just the one side I'm skeptical of that conclusion.

It sounds like allergies to me? But if you feel safe doing so, just try it again. Either a) coincidence, so no reaction this time, b) you body is used to it now, so no reaction this time, c) reaction! Stop using this brand. :)

Thanks for your reply! Yeah, I was planning on trying it again. I just thought I'd post and see if anyone had similar experiences. :)
