False lashes are a great way to enhance natural eye makeup. They can add volume, length and intensity to your natural lashes, making them look fuller and longer. False eyelashes can also be used as an alternative to mascara if you want a more dramatic look or if you have sparse or thinning lashes.
If you're interested in giving false eyelashes a try but aren't sure how to apply them properly, here are six tips for getting the most out of your new look:
Natural Look
If you're looking for a natural look, false lashes can be a great way to achieve it. The trick is finding the right style and applying them correctly.
Here are some tips:
- Choose styles with longer lashes that don't have too much volume or thickness. If you want more drama, go with shorter styles that have more volume and thickness (like the "cat eye" look).
- Apply glue on your upper lash line first before placing the strip of lashes on top of it; this will help keep everything in place as well as prevent any glue from getting into your eyes when removing them later on!
Dramatic Look
You've probably seen dramatic lashes on the runway and in magazines. They're big, bold and beautiful--and they can be yours with false eyelashes!
You may be wondering how to achieve this look. The answer is simple: just like with any other style of lash application, it's all about choosing the right style for your face shape and eye color. For example, if you have small eyes or deep-set eyes (like me), then stick with styles that are longer than wide so that they don't overpower your face shape.
If you're looking for something subtle but still want some extra length and volume at the outer corners of your eyes, try an inverted triangle or cat-eye style instead of one with an exaggerated curve at its base like those pictured above (which would only highlight how narrow my own eyes are).
Special Occasion Look
False lashes are a great way to add drama and glamour to your look. If you're going for a special occasion look, false lashes can help you achieve it.
The benefits of false lashes include:
- They make your eyes appear larger and more open. This is especially helpful if you have small eyes or hooded lids (where the eyelid droops over the pupil).
- They create a fuller-looking appearance by adding volume to the outer corners of your eyes.
- False lashes give you more control over how much makeup products go on each lash line; this means less chance of smudging or clumping!
Everyday Look
If you've ever wanted to have the eyes of your dreams, but don't want to go through the hassle of applying false lashes every single day, then this section is for you!
The benefits of an everyday look are that there's no need for a lot of time or money spent on your makeup routine. You can simply apply some mascara and be out the door in less than five minutes! You'll also save yourself from having to worry about getting glue everywhere (which happens often).
To achieve this look with false lashes, choose styles that are shorter than usual--about half an inch long will do nicely. Then apply them as close as possible around your lash line without getting any glue on your actual lid or skin surrounding it; this will keep things looking natural while still giving off some extra drama when needed later on in life when things get more exciting (or stressful).
Colorful Look
A colorful look is a great way to add some fun to your makeup routine. It's also a great way to take your eyes from day to night, or even bring out the inner you. You can achieve this look with false lashes by choosing the right style and applying them correctly.
If you want to go for a bolder look, try using individual lashes that are colored on both sides of each strand--like Ardell's DuraLash Naturals #109 Black/Brown Eyelashes ($6). These will give your eyes an extra boost of drama without being too over-the-top for everyday wear!
Glittery Look
Glittery eyes are a great way to add some sparkle and glamour to your look. Here's how to do it:
- Pick a style that has an abundance of glitter, like these lashes from Ardell.
- Apply the lashes as usual, but don't worry about adding mascara on top--the glitter will help hold them in place!
Tips & Tricks
- Choose the right style.
- Apply them correctly, and use a lash glue that won't irritate your eyes or skin.
- Remove them properly so you can reuse them again!
Conclusion
False lashes are a great way to achieve the eyes of your dreams. They can be used to add length, volume and definition to your natural lashes. The best part is that false lashes can be worn every day or just on special occasions like weddings or parties!
