Eyelash errors

THEY certainly create a more dramatic look, but if false eyelashes are applied incorrectly they can also have the opposite effect. Nobody is born with innate professional level about how to apply these, so the important thing is to be aware of the basic errors and then avoid them.

Once you´ve opened them up, don´t presume that your false eyelashes are the correct length for your eyes. You may need to cut them slightly so that they fit correctly. Then, once you´ve applied the application glue, wait at least 30 seconds before you apply the eyelashes. This gives the glue time to harden and get sticky and avoids the issue of the eyelash moving around.

Be very careful where you apply the eyelashes. Don´t leave them much above the line of your natural lash. This will create a very clean and neat effect.

If your pre-night out routine involves putting on a face mask to clean your pores. Don´t apply your eyelashes until you have removed the mask. Otherwise you run the risk of accidently pulling them off.

And remember, simply because you have bought single-use eye lashes doesn´t mean that you can only use them once. As long as they´re in good condition, there´s no reason for you not to use them a couple of times. Just be sure to clean them and maintain their shape. But be extra attentive to make sure that you can´t see any glue residue from their previous use.
