Answer 2

Trim the lashes.

If the lash is wider than your eye, trim one side of it lash by lash.

Optionally, trim the individual lashes to make them look more natural. They should be longer towards the outer corner of the eye, and the lash length should vary slightly.

Squeeze eyelash glue onto the back of your hand and run the eyelash along it. Blow softly from edge to edge to make the glue a little less runny to apply your lashes.

Pick the lashes up with tweezers and bring it as close to your natural lash line as possible.

Press from end to end and hold until the glue dries (30 seconds to a minute, or sometimes less depending upon the adhesive). This allows the glue to set so that when you lift your fingertips from it, the lashes won't come along for the ride

Apply mascara while pressing your finger behind the fake lashes. This will bond the false lashes with yours.(It may be beneficial to use an eyelash curler before applying mascara)

Fill any gaps between the false lashes and your natural lash line with eyeliner.

TipsIndividual lashes are applied in the same way. Trim the lashes so that they vary in length, with the ones towards the outer corner of the eye being longer. When applying them, start in the outer corner and work your way in.

Remove the lashes before sleeping by using the special remover provided with your lashes. Otherwise, wet a washcloth with warm water and hold it over the lashes to loosen the glue. Petroleum jelly can help with dislodging particularly stubborn lashes. Whatever you do, don't pull too hard, or you might take some of your own lashes off, too!

Store the lashes in their original packaging, so they do not lose their shape and you can reuse them.

For a more dramatic effect, apply eyelashes on the bottom of your eyes as well.

Look for black eyelash glue at your local pharmacy or beauty supply store. It makes goofs look like eyeliner.

Go easy on the glue so that it doesn't build up on the false eyelashes or clump up your real eyelashes and leak into your eye.

To avoid using too much glue--take a straight pin and stick it into an old cork. The cork makes it easier to control and provides a handle. Dip the FLAT end of the pin into glue and dab it along the false lashes.

After applying glue to the lashes wait a few moments until the glue starts to set. It sticks better and won't move as much on your eye. The more glue you use the longer you will need to wait.

It only takes a small amount of glue to keep lashes on. Use the cork and pin method above to put a fine line of glue to your lashes.

Most glues dry clear

The lash applicators are cumbersome. If any fine adjustments are needed they can be done with fingers or regular tweezers.

Apply the false lashes as close to your natural eye lash line as possible.

WarningsIf false eyelash glue gets in your eyes, take the eyelashes off and wash your eyes out. After drying the eyelashes, you may be able to apply them again.

Use the least amount of glue necessary to avoid accidents

Use clean eye lashes, tweezers and other accessories to avoid contamination

Never use someone elses old eye lashes without sanitizing.

Theatrical lashes can include glitter or other decorative touches. This glitter can sometimes get into your eyes.

For a good tip, apply black eyeliner BEFORE you stick on the lashes. Its easier to handle with when youre done and gives it a clean natural finish.

Answer 3

You need

1) glue

2) the eyelashes

Put a thin line of glue along your eyelid as close to your real lash line as possible. Then carefully set your fake lashes on the line of glue and wait for it to try. Make sure you wait at least a minute for the glue to fully dry before you do too much so they don't move or dry crooked.

Make sure you have a steady hand for this! You can always have a friend help you. That's what I do.  

Answer 4

First of all I find most eyelashes (the full set ones, not individuals) are way to long and drag-queen looking. So I usually trim them a bit to make them look more natural.

Then, apply the glue carefully to the fake eyelashes. Wait 30 seconds to a minute until the glue is tacky (important because if you put them on straight away it will dry completely on your real eyelashes and rip them out). Then, line it up just above your real eyelashes. I usually use tweezers to press them down and arrange them correctly.

At first it may take you several goes to get it as close to the lash line as possible.

And remember when taking them off, do it really really carefully so you dont rip your real eyelashes out.

Also check out youtube - there are some videos that show you how to apply them!

Answer 5

Oh gosh, my advice is to not. You'll never get them to stay, and even if you do, they won't last long. And if you get them to last long, they stil look fake /:

Answer 6

I dont. I would look weird.

Answer 7

take an eyeliner brush! put the glue othe eyelash(fake) with the other end of it-so its very thin! tn close your eye n after 10 seconds put your eyelash!

tip: dont put it to close to the start or it will look weird, a little bit away from the start of your eye! den let it dry n after that will out the gaps by putting the eyeliner!

Answer 8

you need to have eyelash glue, and a pair of fake eyelashes.

if you've never put on fake eyelashes before, i recommend getting a simple kind of lash, like not too thick or noticeable. [:

first, put the eyelash glue on the eyelashes.

make a line onto the brim of the lashes where the top is.

then close the eye that you're going to put the eyelash on & just put the eyelash on the border of your eye/eyelash. it doesn't need to be perfect, but try to adjust it the best you can to make it straight. :D

the lash glue will dry clear, so you don't have to worry about it being a mess and having glue everywhere. [x

i hope i helped. <3
