Eyelash Answers

I’ve recently bought Talika lash extender, the one that contains little loose particles (kind of fibres) & you apply it between two coats of mascara. Has anyone had an experience who could give me tips as I find it really fiddly to use.
As the particles are little ‘black hairs’ I find that, however careful I am, a lot of it falls on my face during application & then they are difficult to remove. So I end up looking like I have hair on my face in various places. Even if I remove them one by one, I find that during the day they fall off my eyelashes.
It is otherwise a nice product in the sense that it does make your eyelashes look thick & long.
Thanks for any help.
