The idea that fake lashes always look fake is not true. They can look natural and improve the appearance. Many people are intimidated by the application process, especially if they have sensitive eyes. However, good quality eyelashes are usually fairly easy to apply today and offer that wow factor that make people look twice when someone wearing them walks into a room.
Many different types of lashes are available. They do not come in just one size or shape. Natural looking lashes may be short or long and some are much fuller than others. One can even buy single or trio lashes. Ones that have an invisible or clear band are more discreet than a black band.
All kinds of different materials such as silk, horse hair and sable can be used to make these products. Sometimes human hair is used but most people choose to buy ones made from synthetic materials because they can be made to look natural and come at a much cheaper price. Of course many really cheap versions are available but these tend to look really fake.
The lashes should be chosen to compliment the shape of the eye. If eyes are prominent, the lashes should help to disguise this. If eyes are more deep set, longer, fuller lashes can help to bring them out. Lashes that emphasize natural lift can help eyes that turn up to look beautiful and those that turn down need ones that will lift them.
There are many different ways of applying lashes. False ones are applied at home whereas eyelash extensions are applied by professionals who glue them to existing lashes. False lashes are applied directly to the top of the lashes. Some of them are glued on and others work with magnets that make them easy to apply and remove. It is better to use dark glue than clear glue for application because clear glue can leave a white residue whereas dark glue simply makes lashes look darker.
When lashes are purchased, they might not be an exact fit. It may be necessary to trim them to fit the length of the eye. It is better to do this before application. Be careful to apply lashes to the top of the eye lashes and not to the lids. Applying them to the lids can look unnatural as it may leave a space.
Once they are applied, try not to play with them or touch them as they may fall off. They are not waterproof so they cannot be worn while swimming or on occasions, like weddings or funerals, when tears are likely.
False lashes can be worn more than once. Just use tweezers to take off excess glue and remove them. If mascara has been applied, use eye makeup remover to clean them and they can be worn again. It is an individual choice as to whether to apply mascara before or after applying false lashes. Those who wear strip lashes usually add mascara after applying the others to blend all the lashes together so they appearance is more natural.
