Effortless False Lashes at Home: A DIY Guide with Tips and Tutorials

Getting flawless fake lashes at home can be intimidating, but they can elevate your makeup appearance. However, you can become an expert at DIY lash application with a little practice and the correct technique. With some crucial pointers along the way, this easy tutorial will help you apply false lashes like an expert.

  Step 1: Choose the Right Lashes

Choose lashes that complement the style you want to achieve first. Lightweight, feathery lashes are the best option if you want a natural look. Choose thicker, more voluminous lashes for a striking, dramatic effect. If you want a more individualised look or greater precision, individual lashes or lash clusters are fantastic. 

Step 2: Trim to Fit 

Before applying, measure the lash strip against your eyelid because most of them are too lengthy for the normal eye. To make sure the lashes fit precisely, trim them from the outer corner. A good fit reduces pain and enhances the natural appearance of the lashes. 

Step 3: Apply Lash Glue 

Along the strip, apply a thin coating of lash adhesive. To ensure that the lashes adhere correctly and don't slip, wait 20 to 30 seconds for the glue to get sticky. For improved control, a pro tip is to apply glue with a brush. 

Step 4: Placement is Key

Secure the outer and inner corners of the lash strip after placing it in the middle, as close to your natural lash line as possible, using tweezers or your fingers. To make sure they stay in place, lightly press. 

Step 5: Finishing Touches 

Curl your lashes and add a thin layer of mascara to blend your natural and fake lashes together. Apply eyeliner to fill in any gaps. 

Final Tip: Practice Makes Perfect 

Applying lashes at home requires some practice, but with perseverance, you'll be able to do it fast and easily!
