We’ve all mastered a routine that takes our makeup from the office to after-work drinks. A swipe of bright lipstick or an extra smudge of liner on the cab ride over to the restaurant usually does the trick, right? Well, sure, but eyelashes always get left behind in the process. After your mascara-coated lashes dry in the morning, you’re pretty much committed to them ’til death makeup remover do you part. Applying mascara on top of already-dried lashes results in a clumpy, spidery mess—a lesson everyone has had to learn the hard way.

Well, until now, that is. Thanks to Urban Decay‘s Mascara Resurrection ($19, sephora.com), you can now swipe this serum through your 6pm lashes, and it’ll break down dry mascara so you can apply a couple extra coats without worrying about clumps. Mascara Resurrection is basically a lash brush in liquid form, separating and refreshing your lashes, prepping them for mascara again.

So, how exactly does it work? Ingredients like panthenol, glycerin and copper powder hydrate your lashes by drawing out moisture, which breaks down dry, hours-old mascara, allowing a smooth ride for your next coat(s). Genius.
