A Step-by-Step Guide to Apply False Lashes and Top IMBB Recommended Falsies

Did you ever notice how a few swipes of mascara transforms your look? What can beat mascara and take a makeup look from pretty to high drama? It’s none other than false lashes. Even, if you’re not going for an intense look, falsies can add that extra oomph and glam to an everyday beauty routine. Sadly, there are many people like me, who are intimidated by the application process, as it can get tricky when applying glue so close to your eyes. So, here is a foolproof guide to applying false lashes, as recommended by top beauty bloggers and makeup artists. This is the first time two IMBB authors have collaborated to bring a tutorial for the readers. Chayanti and I have tried to make this tutorial a helpful one for you.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Apply False Lashes and Top IMBB Recommended Falsies

Step 1: First, remove the falsies from the package very gently, to prevent pulling out lashes or damaging the lash strip. Also, try cutting the lash in half if there is tension on the band. By doing this, it will prevent the outer and inner corners of the lash strip from lifting once they are glued on.

Expert Tip: Use Tweezers to slowly peel the lash off the packaging, outer corner to inner corner.

Step 2: Before applying the falsies to your lash line, size the lash to your eye. Place the clean lash strip on top of your own. If the faux piece is too long for your eye, trim the outer corner. The trimming will help you to adjust it well.

Expert Tip: It is important to trim the outer corner and not the inner corner so that the natural and gradual lengthening is not distorted.

Step 3: After the lash is fitted to your eye, you are ready to apply lash glue. This is undoubtedly the most important part in applying false lashes. Coat the band of the false lash with enough glue to cover the entire strip. Allow the glue to dry for 45 seconds to one minute. Do not hurry.

Expert tips:
• If the glue is not given enough time to dry, the lash will slide along your lash line and won’t stay where you want it to. It is a lot easier to apply the falsies, when the glue is tacky it will immediately adhere to your lashes.
• Apply a good amount of glue onto the back of the lash packaging. Let it get intact, while you apply a thin layer of mascara to your lashes. Then, use the end of a makeup brush or lip liner to apply the tacky glue to the lash.

Step 4: Looking down into a mirror, align and apply the falsie to your lash line. Don’t fret about the outer or inner ends just yet. Once the center of the falsies adheres to your lash line, allow a few seconds for it to settle. Then, gently and carefully use tweezers or your finger to gently press the outer and inner corners onto your lash line.

Step 5: Softly, pinch the falsies against your lashes to help blend them. If it doesn’t look seamless, feel free to apply a thin layer of mascara to better disguise the fake lashes. If you don’t want to apply mascara, delicately use an eyelash curler, to get the falsie as close to your natural lash line as possible.

Step 6: Removing your falsies is a vital step and needs to be done with care. If you have sensitive eyes or have trouble removing your falsies, try taking a warm, damp towel and applying it to your lashes for a few seconds. The falsies should peel right off, pain-free. Also, take this opportunity to peel excess glue from the faux lash strip. By doing this you will extend the lifespan of your falsie and save yourself a few extra bucks!
