Applying eyelash strips is easier than you think! Here's a step-by-step guide:
Getting Started
Before you begin, you'll need:
- Eyelash strips
- Eyelash glue
- Tweezers (optional, but helpful)
Applying the Lashes
- Prepare your lashes: Curl your natural lashes to create a nice base.
- Apply glue: Carefully apply a thin line of eyelash glue to the lash band. Avoid using too much glue, as this can make application messy and uncomfortable.
- Wait a few seconds: Let the glue become slightly tacky before applying the lashes. This helps the lashes adhere better.
- Position the strip: Starting in the middle of your eyelid, carefully place the lash strip. As noted in the provided video reference, “I place it right in the middle first and then I apply the outer end. And then I’m going to apply the inner corner.” This technique ensures proper placement and prevents gaps.
- Press and secure: Gently press the lash strip onto your lash line, ensuring it adheres completely. Use your fingers or tweezers to adjust the placement if necessary.
- Apply mascara (optional): Once the glue is dry, you can apply mascara to blend your natural lashes and the strip lashes together seamlessly.
Tips for Success
- Choose the right size: Select a lash strip that matches the length and width of your eyes for a natural look.
- Trim if needed: If the lash strip is too long, trim the outer edges carefully before application.
- Practice makes perfect: Don't be discouraged if your first attempt isn't flawless. With a little practice, you'll become a pro at applying eyelash strips.
