Re: Question: Is there such a thing as tiny mascara containers for those of us who seldom use it?

@AngelPuppy1 Different mascaras have different life spans before they change.

The blacker the mascara, the quicker it gets clumpy or dry.

I guess it's because of the extra black pigment?

So if a mascara comes in black, extreme black, ultimate black, blacker than Satan's soul..I just go with black.

I love mascara & I usually have 3-4 open at a time. I use them one at a time or layer them to get more lashes.

The "rule" of opening a new mascara every 3 months is to keep it sanitary. I'm clean & don't worry about that.

I didn't know that about the darker mascara getting dry faster.  I generall go for the brown/black or dark brown shades.

@AngelPuppy1   Go on Amazon and search travel size mascaras.  There are many options.

You could buy a bundle of mascara wands and use a brand new one each time so you are not contaminating the product. I am thinking of doing this because I rarely use mascara as well.
