Fake eyelashes are a must for many women with sparse eyelashes or for women going for a very dramatic look. Fake eyelashes open up the eyes and many people think of them as a shortcut to make-up application. If you're using fake eyelashes you may wonder if you should apply mascara and how to do it.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Apply the eyelashes to your eyes using eyelash glue.

  2. Step 2

    Consider curling your false eyelashes before putting on the mascara if you want to make your eyes look wider and more open.

  3. Step 3

    Get a thick coating of mascara onto your mascara brush.

  4. Step 4

    Start at the bottom of the eyelash and gently stroke your mascara brush forward, making sure you completely cover the eyelashes with mascara. Stroke it along the tops and the bottoms of the eyelashes, gently wiggling or zig-zagging it, to prevent clumps.

  5. Step 5

    Take your index finger and your thumb and gently pinch the eyelashes. This will help you combine the false eyelashes with the real ones so you don't have any eyelashes sticking up oddly.

  6. Step 6

    Try to avoid blinking until the mascara is completely dry.

  7. Step 7

    Avoid pumping the mascara wand in and out of the tube. This can introduce air and bacteria.

Tips & Warnings
  • You don't need to use a great deal of mascara on the fake eyelashes.
  • Use clear mascara if you don't want to change the color.
