Eyelashes are a game-changer for enhancing your eye makeup and achieving a glamorous look. However, applying, removing, and maintaining them can be tricky if you're new to the world of falsies. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know to master the art of false eyelashes and keep them in perfect condition for repeated use.
How to Apply False Eyelashes Like a Pro
-
Prepare Your Natural Lashes
Start by curling your natural lashes and applying a thin coat of mascara. This helps create a base for the false lashes to blend seamlessly. -
Measure and Trim
Hold the false lash strip against your eyelid to check the length. If it’s too long, trim the outer edge to fit your eye shape. Always trim from the outer end to maintain the lash design. -
Apply Lash Glue
Apply a thin layer of lash glue along the band of the false lashes. Wait 20-30 seconds for the glue to become tacky—this makes it easier to apply and prevents slipping. -
Place the Lashes
Using tweezers or a lash applicator, place the false lashes as close to your natural lash line as possible. Start from the center of your eye, then adjust the inner and outer corners. -
Press and Secure
Gently press the false lashes into place using your fingers or a lash tool. Hold for a few seconds to ensure they adhere properly. -
Blend with Mascara
Once the lashes are secure, apply a light coat of mascara to blend your natural lashes with the false ones. Be careful not to overdo it, as this can clump the lashes.
How to Remove Eyelashes Safely
-
Use an Oil-Based Makeup Remover
Soak a cotton pad with an oil-based makeup remover or micellar water. Gently press it against your closed eyelid for 10-15 seconds to loosen the glue. -
Peel Off Gently
Starting from the outer corner, slowly peel off the false lashes. Avoid pulling too hard, as this can damage your natural lashes or the falsies. -
Clean the Lash Band
After removal, use a cotton swab dipped in makeup remover to clean any remaining glue from the lash band. This ensures the lashes are ready for reuse.
How to Care for Your Eyelashes
-
Store Them Properly
After cleaning, place your false lashes back into their original packaging or a dedicated lash case. This helps maintain their shape and prevents dust buildup. -
Avoid Water and Oil
Keep your false lashes away from water and oil-based products, as these can weaken the lash band and damage the fibers. -
Clean After Each Use
Regularly clean your lashes with a gentle makeup remover to remove mascara, glue, and dirt. This extends their lifespan and keeps them hygienic. -
Don’t Overuse
Even with proper care, false lashes have a limited lifespan. Depending on the quality, most can be reused 5-10 times before they lose their shape or durability.
