Putting on false lashes can be tricky, but with practice and the right technique, it can be done easily. Here are some steps to follow:
-
Prepare your supplies: You will need false lashes, lash glue, tweezers, scissors, and a mirror.
-
Trim the lashes: Measure the false lashes against your lash line and trim them to fit. Cut from the outer edge of the lash strip to maintain the natural-looking taper.
-
Apply the lash glue: Apply a thin layer of lash glue along the lash strip. Wait a few seconds for the glue to become tacky before applying the lashes.
-
Apply the lashes: Using tweezers, place the false lashes as close to your natural lash line as possible. Press gently to secure them in place.
-
Blend the lashes: Use an eyelash curler to curl your natural lashes and the false lashes together. Apply mascara to blend them together.
-
Optional: Use liquid liner to draw a line extending the band from where it begins to the inner corner of your eye. This will help blend the line of the band to your lash line.
