Your guide on false lashes


So many lashes, how do you know which one is right for you?

Individuals:
With knot – can be applied on the top of your lashes or under them
No knot – great for those photographic shoots especially when it’s a close up on lashes, you don’t want to see random knots there.
Individual lashes are great for any eye shape, they’re light and gives you a more natural look compared to strip lashes.

Try: Putting some individual lashes on the outer corners of your eye for a flirtier look and eyes that look like they’re smiling.


Crossed together:
Especially great for Asian eyes or for those who have shorter lashes as the crossing of the false lashes helps to create the illusion of fuller lashes with added length.
If you have hooded eyes, try the crossed ones that are longer.





If you have shorter lashes, choose crossed ones that are just a bit longer than your own.







Thick & Close:
These are great for a fuller and dramatic look. Perfect with a thick liquid liner on top and a great look for a night out. Best for people with longer lashes as the falsies need support. You don’t want them falling down now.         






The Eye opener:
For a clumpier look, it’s not about perfect lashes all the time. Apply this and top off with 2 coats of mascara for eyes that stand out. Don’t forget mascara on the bottom lashes to help with eyes appearing bigger.





Thin & Simple:
For that added fullness all across the lash line without making them appear top heavy. Great for all eye shapes. It’s simple and natural.







With any false lashes:
-        Look for thin base lines for a more natural look and thick base lines for a more dramatic look. Don’t forget these base lines act as eyeliner.
-        Mascara always needs to applied to help blend your natural lashes to your false lashes.
-        Lashes should be curled before you apply your falsies.
-        False lashes should fit your eye, if it’s too long it looks funny and makes your eyes look smaller.
