False eyelashes can instantly enhance your makeup, but many people struggle with applying them correctly. If you’ve ever found yourself dealing with messy glue or lashes that just won’t stick, don’t worry! Follow this easy step-by-step guide to applying false eyelashes like a pro.
What You’ll Need:
✔️ A pair of false eyelashes
✔️ Lash adhesive (clear or black)
✔️ Tweezers or an applicator
✔️ Small scissors (for trimming lashes)
✔️ Eyelash curler and mascara (optional)
Step 1: Measure and Trim the Lashes
Place the lash strip along your lash line to measure its length. If the strip is too long, trim the outer end slightly with scissors to fit your eye shape.
Step 2: Apply Lash Glue Properly
Squeeze a small amount of lash adhesive onto the lash band. Let it sit for 30-40 seconds until it becomes tacky—this helps the lashes stick better.
Step 3: Position the Lashes Correctly
Using tweezers, place the lash strip as close to your natural lash line as possible. Start from the center, then adjust the inner and outer corners.
Step 4: Secure the Lashes
Press down gently on the lash band to ensure it sticks properly. Use tweezers or your fingers to press along the band for a firm hold.
Step 5: Blend for a Natural Look
Use an eyelash curler to blend your natural lashes with the falsies. Apply mascara if needed for extra volume.
Bonus Pro Tips:
💡 Use Black Lash Glue – It blends seamlessly with eyeliner and creates a fuller look.
💡 Bend the Lash Strip – Gently bending the lash band before applying makes it easier to fit your eye shape.
💡 Try Half-Lashes – If you're a beginner, cut your lash strip in half and apply only to the outer corners for a more natural look.
With a little practice, applying false eyelashes will become second nature. Flaunt those lashes with confidence!
