How to put on fake eyelashes.. The best way!

Ok so it's always been a struggle for me and I'm sure many others putting on eyelashes and getting them to stay on!

So here's a guide to help you put them on the best way.

Strip Lashes:

Any type of lashes you buy are usually fine! (Ones from Penneys/ Primark, Tesco, New Look wherever!) I personally prefer the ones that are less thick as opposed to the heavier strip lash! The most important thing to have when putting on both the strip lashes and the individual lashes is a tweezers.

So,

Firstly take the first strip lash out of the packaging gently by picking it up with the tweezers. Then measure it to your eye. Most strip lashes are made especially for the perfect shaped eye which is the almond shaped eye. There are many different shapes of eye which is why If you do not have this shape eye the lash line will need to be cut. To do this just simply get a nail scissors or any small scissors and cut off the part that goes over your natural lash line. Do not do this after placing it on your eye because you could cut off some of your own eyelashes!! 

When you have got the perfect shape simply bend the strip lash a few times with your fingers so as to get rid of the shape that was designed for that almond eye. This will make it easier to fit it on to your eye.

Then, place the adhesive glue which should have come with the lashes onto the strip and wait a few minutes for the glue to dry in. Try not to get glue on the lashes just on the strip that will be placed on the lash line.

Once the glue has dried (it should take two minutes at the most) pick up the strip lashes with the tweezer and place gently on the natural lash line (the area where the eyelashes meet the skin). Press the fake lashes in gently with the back of the tweezers. This is the best way to do it so your not left with any bits poking out! 

Individual Lashes:

Firstly, put a blob of the adhesive glue that should have come with the lashes on the back of your hand.

Pick up the first lash (the longest one in the packet) with a tweezers and dip the tip of the lash onto the glue on your hand. Place it on the lash on the outer corner of the eye. This is where you will start from (the outer lashes in towards the inner ones). Place the lash gently on the start of the natural eye lash (the part where the eyelash meets the skin). Do this with the rest of the eyelashes and work inwards!
