It’s that time of the year again, \u00a0yep holiday party season is back! Which means you’re most likely to bring your A-game in cosmetics for all the sparkly nights ahead. One of our mystery tricks for looking significantly glitz is popping on a couple of fake lashes. From strips to flares there’s a form for each look you’ll shake this month. As a matter of fact, getting those suckers to stay on can be a little distressing. So we requested that our MUA buds spill their best lash application tips. Master the process like a professional by reading the following tips.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Wouldn’t it be nice that \u00a0every single pair of lashes was perfectly customized for you. Sadly for all of us that is not the case, and you\u2019re gonna have to bring out the scissors. Celebrity make up artist suggests \u00a0\u201cStart by measuring the lash, lay it down above your real lashes (without glue!) and then open your eye. This will give you an idea of how the lash will sit and how much to snip away. Trimming makes them more comfortable to wear and prevents them from popping up.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

Many times you don’t even need to use the entire strip. You can always just use half. Cut the strip in half and apply it to just the outer corner of your eye. This is a simple trick many like make-up artists\u00a0suggest. Half false lashes<\/a> creates a cool cat eye effect. They go perfectly pairing this with some winged liner!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cWe usually buy lashes depending on length and volume. But, something else to look out for is a thin band. This is so important when it comes to wear,” pro makeup artist Ricky\u00a0explains. \u201cThe thicker the band, the easier it lifts up! I tend to use invisible band lashes whenever possible. If I’m working with a thicker band, I use extra lash glue to make sure it doesn\u2019t budge.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It is very important to shape the band of your lashes. \u201cI like to remove the lashes from their packaging and wrap them around the handle of a medium eye shadow brush,\u201d says Ricky. (The glue that holds them in their tray will help them stick to the brush!) “This helps to reshape the lash so it will hug the curve of your eyelids, making it easier to apply.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n We all try our best to avoid sticky situations while applying the adhesive. Black\/dark tone lash adhesive blends right into the lashes. Never squeeze the glue from the tube directly onto the lash base, \u00a0iot is wise to put a drop of glue on the middle of a Q-tip and drag the lash through it. This adds just the right amount and its creates a clean and mess-free application. Use this trick to avoid making a mess.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n It’s important to wave the lash around for a bit after adding the glue. This lets the adhesive formulation enough time to dry to become tacky, preventing you from getting glue all over the place. \u00a0Letting that glue set a little helps it really grip when you place it down. It’s important to give the glue at least 30 seconds before you apply your falsies lashes<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cI always do lashes after shadow and liner,\u201d says Ricky. \u201cIf you do them first, you might end up with eye shadow fallout on top of them. Sometimes, I add a little liquid liner to conceal the lash and finish the makeup.\u201d<\/p>\n Adding a touch of mascara to the fake lashes will help blend them with your real lashes. But, doing so will limit the use of the pair to a couple times only s. It\u2019s really not safe to keep reusing mascara-ed up falsies more than twice because bacteria can build up.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ricky explains that \u201cIndividual lashes tend to look more natural. Strips are so much fun and can really glam up the eye, so I tend to use them when creating a smoky or graphic liner look,\u201d .<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Ricky explains \u201cCurling the lash beforehand makes it more difficult to apply,\u201d Ricky says. But, after you’ve applied your lashes, curl away! \u201cIt helps blend the falsies with your natural lashes!”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n This should be \u00a0an easy decision, yet there’s a simple hack to keeping glue far from your waterline. \u201cAlways keep your eyes open when applying,\u201d says Bailey.\u00a0She tells us that holding a mirror beneath you will make it easier to see your lash line while looking straight ahead.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n\n
