For Beginners! False Lashes 101 Do's and Don'ts

If you have smaller eyes and your goal is to elongate, look for lashes that are thicker in the outer corner. This will add lift and length. For eyes that are wide set or have little or no crease, concentrate your lashes in the center of the eye. This will really open the eye up. For deep-set eyes, you want to use longer lash strips so you can really lengthen the eye. Remember the lashes are an extension on the eye shape, and the best part about false lashes is that you can control the shape!

Remove the false lash from your eye after measuring them. Use a small pair of scissors, something similar to nail scissors and gently trim the edge of your lashline. Start with a smaller piece and then place it again on your lashline to re-measure your fake eyelash. You do not want to trim off too much from your false eyelash so always start with smaller pieces. Always trim the edge of the lashes that has the longest lashes. Don’t cut the shorter lashes from the inner edge since it gives the best natural looking false eyelashes.
