I have been doing this for as long as I can remember and never had a problem... until this morning. Two or three of my eyelashes were clumping together, so I pulled out my needle to separate them and accidently poked myself in the eye.
This is what I looked like after the doctor dropped orange dye into my eye...
You can see in the picture that the skin under my eye is stained and my make-up is trashed.
Here's the good news:
1) I found out that eyes heal quickly, so the pain should go away after a couple of days.
2) The eye doctor gave me some sample anti-biotic and lubricating eye drops, therefore I'm saving money by not having to buy prescriptions.
3) Dr. Croft made me feel a little bit better by informing me that he sees women in his office about once a week for the very same thing.

OMG DeeAnn I'm laughing WITH you, WITH you. You poor thing. I hope your eye is OK and that orange stain goes away before Thanksgiving!!!
I've done that myself, didn't have to go to the doctor though. I learned the pin/needle trick from Sandie Coleman many moons ago. I still have my needle in my make-up bag and use it when I have too. :-)
Oh wow. Glad you are okay. It makes me a little sick thinking about the needle in the eye thing. Dawes.
Lizbeth- It's okay to laugh. I've been laughing too...at what a moron I am! :)
Have you ever tried a baby toothbrush for opening up eyelashes after mascara application?
U = silly girl! =P
