How To PROPERLY Apply False Lashes

Beautiful lashes make a statement!

Believe it or not, I have had to rewrite this blog several times as I kept coming up with too much information.   Who knew that I knew so much about false lashes!  The last rewrite was still 2467 words long!  Yikes!  I guess I will have to save that info for my book, huh?  Well, most of what I am writing is based on what I am seeing on stages all over the country and we as a country sure need some eyelash help!

So, here is my significantly reduced version of "how to properly apply lashes", with the book to follow a couple of decades from now:

1)  Loosen the lashes from the container by peeling them off gently with tweezers.

2)  If using a full band of lashes, PLEASE trim or they will be quite uncomfortable to wear.  I, of course, recommend and carry THE PERFECT LASHES at JAM cosmetics.  They are easy to apply, do not need to be trimmed and they fit every eye shape and size beautifully.  

3)  Drop a little puddle of eyelash glue on a corner of the opened lash container.

4)  Recap the glue.

5)  Dip the capped glue top into the little glue puddle and draw a thin line on the eyelash band.  If you are using DUO Eyelash Adhesive, a little goes a long way.  It is the best eye lash glue on the market and that is why it is the only glue I use as a makeup artist.

6)  Wait 30 - 40 seconds for the glue to get a little bit sticky

7)  Line up the end of the lashes with the last natural lashes on the outside corner of the eye.

8)  Apply false eyelashes to lash line.  

9)  Hold in place pressing the lashes in and up.

10)  Use JAM cosmetics BLACK water-resistant Mascara to coat and bind your natural lashes to your new false ones.  

And just in case, you are still baffled, you can watch this video, HOW TO APPLY FALSE LASHES.

Please help those in need and pass this information on...you know who they are!

Keep dancin' pretty!
