Apply Fake Eyelashes

Have you ever tried to put on false eyelashes but just have no luck? From weddings to halloween false eyelashes can rev up anyone's look. If you have sparse lashes or even normal lashes, false eyelashes can be worn by everyone!

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Set of False Eyelashes
  • Lash Glue
  • Scissors
  1. Step 1

    First make sure you have all your items in front of you ready to be used. You want to make sure your eyes are clean and free of any mascara, eyeliner, etc.

  2. Step 2

    Take the lashes from their holding base being careful not to pull too hard. Pulling too hard can cause them to break.

  3. Step 3

    Take the lashes and measure them for length. If they are too long, cut off the excess at the end of the strip of lashes.

  4. Step 4

    Apply a thin layer of lash glue to the base of the lashes (where they are all joined to a strip). Usually the glue says to wait 30 seconds before trying to apply but I find it is better to wait a minute so that you don't have wet glue all over your lid.

  5. Step 5

    Begin application at inner base of your lashes. Line up the false lashes with your natural ones. The trick to making the lashes stick is to press down on them as you are applying from the inner to outer lid. Do the same for each eye.

  6. Step 6

    When you are done applying your lashes you should take your clear mascara and apply it to blend your natural lashes with your false eyelashes.

Tips & Warnings
  • Always be cautious when using any kind of cosmetic or accessory near the eye. Always read packaging and heed all warnings.
