"Hi, I'm Kelly. I'm an aesthetician and makeup artist at Ulta Salon and Cosmetics, and I'm going to show you the best way to put on false eyelashes. We're going to work with a strip lash which is a lot easier to apply than an individual lash. So, the first thing we're going to do is we're going to take our strip lash, can you close for me, and we're just going to measure her eye to see if it's going to be an okay length for her eye, which it is. It goes from corner to corner really well. If, for some reason your lash is a little too long you can just trim off any excess. The next thing we're going to do is we're going to take some lash adhesive, and you want to make sure that you have a lash adhesive that's right for strip lashes and not one that's for individual lashes, cause' those are really different kinds of adhesive. So, I like to take a little bit on a brush and just kind of brush it right across the band and get a really thin layer of glue. You don't want to do it too thick, cause' you don't want to accidentally glue your eye shut or get too much glue on there and have it pull out all over the eye and ruin your look. So, we're just going to kind of brush some glue across there. And then, you're just going to take it; line it up from corner to corner, and press. And then, if you wanted to blend it in and make it a little bit, make it look a little bit more natural you could go over it with like a black liner and just kind of blend it in a little bit. But, that's how you would want to apply a false strip eyelash."
