All I know is; the shape of the mascara wand plays a significant role in lash definition, For example, crescent-shaped wands will help curve the lashes up; fat wands with lots of bristles will help thicken the lashes by coating each one individually; bristleless wands (they look like the tip of a metal screw) will allow you to paint lashes right to the roots; and double-tapered brushes (they have small bristles at either end that get longer towards the middle of the wand) will help define very thin and sparse lashes.
However, I can assure you there is no need to pump the wand in and out of its container before applying!

All I know is; STFU is my favorite institution, and though many of us attended other universities around the world, I am encouraging as many people as I can to embrace STFU and its ideals. Tuition is cheap at STFU, in fact it's free. There are no books to buy, and since there's no physical campus, I think you'll find the more you immerse yourself in the STFU lifestyle the happier and more fulfilled all your lives will be.
