Long eyelashes can make eyes look bigger, fuller and more inviting. Though not all of us were blessed with sky-high lashes, false eyelashes are the next best thing. And, when worn correctly, they can go totally undetected.
I know many of you have given up on false lashes cos you're tired of "throwing away" precious money in the salon fixing lashes that could come off that same night while you are asleep. Lolz. It is way cheaper and convenient to "do it yourself". It is easy and fun.
Here are a few tips to help you fix those killer eyelashes...by yourself.
1) Size the lashes. Before gluing the lashes on, you will need to make sure that they are not too wide for your eye. Hold the lash strips up against your eyelid, and trim them down on the sides if necessary.
2) Squeeze a thin line of lash glue onto the back of your non-dominant hand. Now, gently run the outer seam of the eyelash strip along it. Allow the glue to dry for a moment before applying it to your lashes.
3) Place the strip on your eyelid, positioning it as close as possible to your natural lashes. Bring the strip down from above rather than coming in from the front to ensure that you get as close as possible to your lashline.
4) Allow the glue to dry naturally. Once the strip is in place, let go and allow the glue to dry on its own; you do not need to press on it or hold it down for long.
5) Apply mascara to your lashes. This will help blend your natural lashes with the false ones, achieving a more natural look. You can use black, brown, or dark gray mascara.
6) Apply liquid eyeliner along your upper lids. Be sure to fill in any gaps between the false lashes and your own to make them look more natural. Use black, brown, or dark gray liner.
7) Use makeup remover to remove false lashes. Dip a q-tip in eye makeup remover and gently rub it along your lash line. Allow the remover to sit for a minute or so, and then gently pull off the strip.
Voila!!! As simple as ABC. :)
Cool stuff..
