Eyelash stickers, also known as self-adhesive eyelashes, are applied by carefully peeling them from their backing and then placing them along your lash line. While the provided video reference doesn't explicitly detail the application of stickers, it shows the process for applying false eyelashes with glue, and we can infer the general steps for stickers from that process.
Steps to Apply Eyelash Stickers:
Here’s a simplified process to help you use eyelash stickers effectively:
-
Preparation:
- Start with clean, dry eyelids. Remove any makeup or oils.
- If you have natural lashes that are very straight, you may want to lightly curl them for best results.
-
Peel the Sticker:
- Gently remove the eyelash sticker from its packaging using tweezers or your fingers. Avoid touching the adhesive.
- If you have full strip lashes cut them in to smaller pieces for easier application
-
Position the Sticker:
- Look down into a mirror and position the sticker as close as possible to your natural lash line. Start from the inner or outer corner of your eye, whichever feels more comfortable for you.
- Use tweezers to maneuver the sticker into the desired position.
-
Press and Secure:
- Once you are happy with the position, press down lightly on the sticker, starting from the center and working your way to the corners, to ensure it's well-adhered.
- Make sure the edge is completely attached to avoid lifting.
-
Avoid Over Opening Eyes:
- As noted in the video reference (0:13-0:48), while your lashes dry make sure to avoid over opening your eyes to prevent them from coming off.
Tips for Using Eyelash Stickers:
- Cleanliness: Keeping your hands and eyelids clean before applying stickers is crucial for a strong bond.
- Gentle Application: Handle the lashes gently to prevent damage.
- Trimming: If the lashes are too long for your eye shape, trim them to size before applying.
- Adhesive Check: If you are using a glue-on false eyelash, apply a small amount of glue to the lash and wait for it to dry before applying to your lash line. As described in the video reference (0:13-0:48), make sure they are almost dry.
- Practice: Like any beauty skill, practice will make the application easier and more efficient.
While the provided reference explains that the lashes in the video use glue to adhere to the lash line, the fundamental principle remains the same when applying eyelash stickers. Both require careful positioning and ensuring that the lash is secured to the lash line.
