Trim the eyelashes so they fit your eye length. If you prefer a less dramatic look, cut the eyelashes in half to apply them only on the outer corners of your eyes.

2
Apply a light strip of eyelash glue along the base of the false eyelashes. Let dry for about 10 to 15 seconds.

Grip one set of false lashes with tweezers. Place the false lashes as close to the base of your own eyelashes as you can get. Start at the outer corner and work your way slowly toward the middle, then the inner corner.

Hold the eyelashes in place for about 15 seconds until you are sure they are firm and will not fall off.

Apply a coat of mascara to blend your own eyelashes with the false ones. This will give you a more natural look. If there are any gaps, fill them in with black eyeliner.
