Video Transcript

"In this clip I'm going to show you the tools that you need to apply false eyelashes. You're going to use an angle brush and a black eye shadow for eyeliner. Black mascara, tweezers, eyelash curler, Duo adhesive and then eyelashes. A variety of eyelashes. In this clip I'm going to show you what you need to do before applying the false eyelash. I'm going to do liner first and I'm going to take an angle brush and a black eyeshadow. So you are going to want to take your angle brush and go right along the lash line with your eyeshadow and just do a nice thin layer of eye liner. You want to put eye liner first so when you apply your eyelash there isn't going to be a gap between your real lashes and the fake ones. If there is you won't be able to see it. So just dab your brush right along all the way into the inner corner and then I'm going to go in with my eyelash curler and look straight Sara, and curl the eyelashes. It's really important to curl your lashes before applying fake eyelashes because you want the natural lashes to blend with the fake ones. And if your eyelashes are shooting straight down and then the fake ones are nice and curled it's going to look kind of funny. Then you are going to use some mascara and just start at the base and wiggle your brush through so it really coats all the lashes. And if you get any smudges it's ok you can just clean it up with a q-tip when you are done. So start at the base and wiggle. And really make sure that you coat all the lashes. Try not to smudge as much as I just did and get your bottom lashes just lightly, get your bottom lashes. Unless you are going for a really dramatic look then you can coat them thoroughly. So you can take a q-tip or a clean brush to remove any smudges. And look up. And you don't want any product on your brush or q-tip while doing this. And now you are ready to apply your false eyelashes."
