False eyelashes are a great way to add drama and intensity to your look. Whether you want a natural look or a statement piece, false eyelashes can take your look to the next level. However, using false eyelashes can be intimidating for beginners. Here are some tips and tricks to help you master applying false lashes.

 

1. Choose the right eyelashes

Before applying false eyelashes, choose the right pair according to your eye shape and desired makeup. There are many different styles and types of false eyelashes, from natural looking to dramatic fullness. Look for eyelashes that are comfortable to wear and match the size and shape of your eyes.

2. Trim eyelashes to fit your eyes

Most false eyelashes are designed to provide a variety of eye shapes and sizes, which means they may need to be trimmed to fit your eyes perfectly. Hold the lashes close to the eye to see how they work, and cut the outer edges if necessary. Remember to cut a little at a time so you don't go over trim.

3. Apply glue on the eyelash strip

Once you've trimmed your lashes to match your eyes, it's time to apply the glue. Squeeze a small amount of lash glue onto the back of your hand or a clean surface, then use a toothpick or the included applicator to apply a thin, even layer of glue to the lash strip.

4. Wait for the glue to become sticky

After applying the glue, please wait a few seconds for it to become tacky. This makes the lashes easier to work with and helps them stay in place. You can tell the glue is done when it looks a little translucent.

 

5. Clip eyelashes with tweezers

Using tweezers, carefully draw the lashes as close to the natural lash line as possible. Start by placing the center of the lash strip against your natural lash line, then use tweezers to adjust the ends. Make sure the lashes are centered and symmetrical on both eyes.

6. Press the eyelashes firmly

After placing lashes, gently press on natural lashes and hold for a few seconds. This will help the glue adhere to your natural lashes and ensure the false lashes stay in place.

7. Apply mascara to blend lashes

After the glue dries, lightly brush them together with a mascara wand. This will help coordinate the lashes and create a more natural finish. You can also use an eyelash curler to curl your natural and false lashes together.

8. Clean and store eyelashes

After wearing false eyelashes, cleaning them properly and storing them safely is essential. To clean lashes, use a cotton swab and makeup remover to remove any glue or makeup gently. Store your lashes in their original packaging or a clean, dry place to keep them in good condition for future use.

Following these tips and tricks, you can master the art of using false eyelashes and create a striking and glamorous look. Remember to choose the suitable lashes for your eye shape, trim them properly and apply glue carefully for the best results. With some practice, you'll be an expert in false eyelashes.
