Well, fear not my fellow beauty devotees because I’m here to guide you through it! In this blog post, I’ll take you through some top tips on how to apply false lashes like a pro. Trust me, with these tips you’ll be fluttering those lashes with confidence in no time!
1. Invest in Quality False Lashes
The first step to applying false lashes like a professional is to invest in quality lashes. A good set of lashes can make the difference between a beautiful, seamless lash look, and a messy, artificial one. Make sure you choose lashes that fit the shape of your eyes and have a natural look to them. Additionally, choosing lashes that come with a good adhesive makes life a lot easier! Make sure to do your research and opt for a reputable brand that uses quality products.
2. Prep Your Lashes
Before applying your false lashes, it’s important to prep your natural lashes. This means giving them a good clean, removing any traces of makeup and dirt. It’s also important to curl your natural lashes and apply mascara to help them fit in with your false lashes. Make sure to let your mascara dry thoroughly before moving onto the next step.
3. Measure and Trim Your Lashes
One of the trickiest parts of applying false lashes is getting them to fit the shape of your eyes. Measure the lashes against your natural lashes, so they are not too long or short. If they are too long, trim them to fit and make sure always to trim at the outer end of the lash for the most natural look. Remember it’s better to have lashes that are too short and look natural than too long and look artificial.
4. Apply Adhesive Carefully
False lash adhesive is essential for keeping them in place and creating a natural look. Apply a small amount of adhesive along the lash strip and let it dry for a few seconds. It’s essential to make sure your adhesive is tacky and dry before applying your lashes. Once it’s ready, use tweezers to carefully place the lash strip on your natural lashes and press down evenly.
5. Finish with Mascara and Eyeliner
Once your false lashes are in place, it’s time to blend them with your natural lashes. Use a mascara wand to carefully coat your lashes, making sure to get a good blend between your false lashes and natural lashes. If you want to add another level of definition, add some eyeliner along your upper lash line for a flawless finish.
In conclusion, applying false lashes doesn’t have to be scary or complicated! With a little practice and patience, you can quickly become an expert in creating beautiful, fluttery lashes that will make your eyes pop. Remember to invest in quality lashes, prep your natural lashes, measure and trim them to fit, apply adhesive carefully and always finish with mascara and eyeliner.
