Fashion Magazine’s challenge for the Beauty Panel this week was to show how to apply false lashes. I almost didn’t partake in this challenge, because it’s one of the beautiful things I suck at most. My attempt didn’t turn out as bad as I thought it would, I was actually impressed!
I am also planning to write about a semi-permanent solution for eye makeup that is eyelash extensions as you can see on vibrantsalonandspa.com website. Because if you want a long lasting solution without damaging your natural lashes and you don’t need to wear the mascara then that will be only the lash extensions.
In this post, you’ll find a video tutorial on how to apply false lashes along with several tips. Hopefully, this can help some of you who are just starting out with falsies.

Additional tips:
- The first tip I would give to someone just starting out with a set of full lashes is to practice. I’ve found $1 lashes at the Dollar store, which are great for practice because you don’t have to worry about wasting much money.
- If you are inexperienced, make sure you have extra time to apply falsies. You don’t want to rush and mess up your eye makeup in the process.
- I didn’t mention that before attempting to use false lashes, make sure they fit your upper lash line. If they don’t, then trim a couple of lashes from the longer side. Mine was fine, so I skipped this step.
- The longer side of the lash line should always be glued on the outer edge of your eye, that is where natural lashes are typically longest.
- If you want to reuse the lashes – do not drench them in mascara. A little bit of mascara goes a long way to help baby lashes stand out and helps blend the reals lashes into the fake ones. I also find it easier to use mascaras with a small wand for this purpose.
