Hi lovelies. Another strange query :-) I live in a very cold but beautiful part of our country and also experience my mascara is quite cold in the morning so isn't easy to apply. In the past I have had to put on glass of warm water before use and even keeping in different parts if the house. Have you or do you also experience this frustration before work during colder months?? X

Yup! I pop it between my boobs while I do my hair and the rest of my makeup, and apply it last once it's nice and warm and smooth :)

LOL that's awesome! I never heard of that before. We live in a place that has extreme heat (42 it got to!) and extreme cold (snowed in for  days) 
how about keeping in the bathroom so when you shower the room heats up?
Skingeek, that is brilliant :-)

Haha it actually works really well in general. Mascara always goes on a little smoother if it's slightly warm and it doesn't clump as easily.

Haha skingeek. I haven't experienced this myself, but I have heard that when your mascara gets gluggy to dip the bottom half in hot water as it loosens it up. So I guess this is more or less the same theory.

I have found that in winter it gets harder to apply. I also stick it in my cleavage and do the rest of my makeup or even housework before applying my mascara. It is a lot easier to apply when its warmer.

Yup! Boobs are Best! :) with hot water you can a) make it too runny and b) risk water leaking into the tube. Your boobs just warm it nicely, and they also warm the whole tube so it's a lot more even. I do it most mornings regardless. I sometimes don't remember in time but I'll pop it in for a minute or two anyway, but it's best if you give it ten minutes or so.

It'll become the norm soon, and they will no longer think anything of it.

I think you've started a boobie revolution! New uses for our girls :)
OMG!!! I don't know why I haven't thought of this!!  Another thing that might not work on cold mornings is ghds!  If you have any of these straighteners and they beep at you furiously they are too cold to turn on.  So warm them up with you hair drier!

Kristyndoeshair That happened to me and I thought my GHDs were broken!  I didn't use them for a month or so and was about to buy some new ones til my friend told me that happens when they're too cold!  I still laugh about this!!!
