The present invention is an ergonomic mascara shield specifically designed to provide a barrier or protective shield over the upper and lower eyelid areas of a user's face to prevent smearing during the application of mascara. The device is comprised of an ergonomically designed eye portion being both angled and concave relative to an ergonomic handle portion integrally attached to the eye portion. The eye portion is adapted to fit even the deepest set eyes through its curvature and relative angle to the handle. The handle is designed to curve around the cheekbone and brow ridge thereby allowing the eye portion to rest comfortably and perfectly where desired in the eye socket. The handle likewise provides a contoured surface area to facilitate griping and positioning of the mascara shield in a preferred position against the lower or upper eyelids.
