Step-by-Step Guide to Applying False Lashes

According to the video, "How To Apply AND Remove False Lashes | Shonagh Scott," the process is as follows:

1. Preparing the Lashes

  • Before application, ensure your natural lashes are clean.
  • You may want to curl your natural lashes to better blend with the false ones.
  • Measure the false lash against your lash line and trim it if necessary. Start from the outer edge.

2. Applying Adhesive

  • Apply a thin layer of lash adhesive to the band of the false lashes.
  • Allow the glue to become tacky (wait for a short period as per glue instruction) before applying it to your lash line.

3. Positioning the Lashes

  • Use tweezers or a lash applicator for precise placement.
  • Place the false lash as close as possible to your natural lash line.
  • Start by positioning the center of the false lash.
  • Adjust the inner and outer corners.
  • Manipulate the lash, pushing it upward on the outer edge to create a lifted look. (1:23, 3:05)
    • This is done to lift the look of the eye. (1:23)

4. Adjusting and Securing

  • Press the lash band gently but firmly against the lash line.
  • Ensure both corners are securely attached.
  • If needed, use mascara to further blend the false and natural lashes.

Helpful Tips

  • For a more natural look, avoid applying too much glue.
  • Wait a few seconds for the glue to get tacky will make application smoother.
  • Practice makes perfect. Don't worry if your first few attempts aren't perfect.
