The look of thick, full lashes is something that many women want and they seek it out through false lashes. False lashes are becoming increasingly popular for special occasions and even every day wear. There are many different types of false lashes available, some being made out of natural fibers, others being made of plastics. Luxury false lashes are made out of animal hairs, such as fox hair, giving the lashes a realistic look. False lashes also come in a variety of different styles, colors and textures.
What It Is
False lashes are not new to the beauty industry, being used on the runway and in television for years. Yet they have undergone a makeover, making them appropriate for every day with subtle lashes that mimic the look of natural lashes. They are also great for nights out with more fun lashes that have sparkles, different cuts and colors. False lashes generally come in a pack of two, and you may or may not have to purchase glue to keep the lashes them in place (depending on if it is included in the kit you are purchasing). False lashes are a fantastic way to play up your eyes by creating depth, volume and fullness.
How To Use
After you have chosen your false lashes and have selected the right glue, you are going to want to cut the lashes to fit your eyelid.
This is a step that many women overlook which causes their lashes to not fit correctly and droop. Once the lashes are cut to the correct length you will want to line them with glue. Do not be alarmed if the glue goes on white because it will dry clear, making it disappear under your eye makeup. Adjust the lashes to match up with your own lash line. It may take a few tries before you feel confident with your placement, so make sure to adjust before the glue dries. Once you have given the lashes enough time to dry you use black liner and mascara to complete the look. Keep an eye on your false lashes, and bring the glue with if you are going out. This can allow you to touch up any lashes that might want to wander. It is very important to remember to take off your false lashes at the end of the night. Wearing them and the glue for long periods of time can cause damage to your own lashes and increases the risk of infection.
Benefits
The main benefit of using false lashes is that they can give you a bright wide-eyed look perfect for any occasion. It can also fill in areas of your lashes where some may be missing and give the illusion of picture perfect lashes. This is a very inexpensive way to make your eyes pop without committing to expensive treatments and lash products that take time to notice a difference. False lashes are also a good way to get night eyes for an evening out with the ladies or a wedding.
False lashes are available at very low prices and in many different looks. They are available at high-end beauty stores and discount beauty outlets as well. Try them out to see if you like the full lashed look they provide.
