Well, you can find a way out of any situation, and the modern world offers a woman thousands of options to create an image that she likes. Artificial eyelashes will help to make the look expressive and languid - a unique invention that helps to change your appearance in a minute. But how to apply false eyelashes? Is it convenient to walk with them, is it possible to carry out the gluing procedure at home?
Today you can not only stick eyelashes, but also increase. However, invoices have their own charm:
- cheap kit, which even includes glue
- ease of handling
- possibility of multiple use
- beautiful appearance
To make the makeup look natural, you need to choose the right false eyelashes - the photos clearly show that such sets may not differ in beauty from extended hairs. The acquisition of not too long will make the look expressive without "artificiality".
Key questions before the procedure
Before applying false eyelashes, you need to deal with some issues. So, what glue should be used for these purposes?
On the forums, girls share their secrets and talk about PVA glue or, even worse, Moment, as substitutes for special glue. Replacing glue with a product that is not intended for gluing eyelashes is unsafe for health!
As if after putting on makeup you didn’t have to call an ambulance. Use only the intended glue - it costs a penny, it lasts for a long time. The kit always comes with a small disposable tube, but often the glue is of poor quality or even dried up (if these are cheap eyelashes).
Glue is of two types: white or black. It makes no difference which one to use, because after drying, the white becomes transparent, and the black is not visible. Since the glue has a rubber base, it does not cause discomfort - artificial hairs repeat the shape of a woman's eyelids.
Many ladies are interested in the question of whether it is difficult to glue false eyelashes - reviews say that for a quality procedure, it will need to be repeated several times. Having got used, cilia can be placed on the eyelid in 1-2 minutes.
Sticking procedure: sequence
So, if you have never tried and do not know how to stick false eyelashes, follow the basic algorithm:
- Try on artificial eyelashes to the base of eyelash growth on the eyelid - they may be longer than necessary - they should be cut off;
- In order for the artificial hairs to stick tightly, the skin must be degreased - wipe the eyes with a tonic or make-up remover;
- Glue must be squeezed into the palm of your hand, then run over it with a strip of eyelashes - the glue must be applied in a thin layer (many people use a toothpick, a cotton swab for this);
- When the glue has dried (20-30 seconds), the eyelashes should be taken in the middle with tweezers and applied to the eyelid - press from the outer corner of the eye to the inner;
after gluing, you need to draw a toothpick along the base so that they are better fixed; - On the upper eyelid, along the base of the growth, it is imperative to draw a liner or a contour pencil to hide the place of gluing and glue residue, if visible;
- The final touch is tinting with ink to straighten, “glue” with your own.
Eyelash bundles
False eyelashes are glued in bunches using the same technology - they are used when it is necessary only in the corners of the eyes or to make the makeup look more natural. The bundles are glued with tweezers, each sticking at the base for about 40 seconds.
To avoid asymmetry, the beams are glued alternately on each eye. After gluing, they need to be lightly tugged to make sure that they do not come off. The longest bundles are applied to the outer corner.
Removing false eyelashes
Now the question of how to stick false eyelashes has become more understandable, but another question remains - how to remove them and does it hurt? As the famous proverb says - “breaking is not building”, so making a make-up remover is easy.
You also need to know how to remove false eyelashes, since some ladies simply tear them off their eyelids. This cannot be done, because you can damage the structure of your hairs or significantly thin them out.
- Wet cotton pads with water, apply to the eyelids for two minutes;
- Apply a make-up remover (preferably oil-based) to a cotton swab and apply to the main line where the eyelashes are glued;
- When the glue softens, pull the corner of the artificial eyelashes - you need to remove the tape slowly, carefully;
- After this, the eyelid should be wiped again with a makeup remover, apply a soothing cream.
False eyelash storage
Before removing false eyelashes, you need to find the box in which they were sold - the tape can only be stored in the "native" container. Glue and mascara are removed from the hairs with a cotton swab dipped in makeup remover. After the procedure, they are wiped with a cotton pad dipped in warm water. Strongly stuck adhesive is removed with soap and a toothbrush or tweezers. This is done solely so that before sticking false eyelashes the next time, you do not have to clean them.
If you remember the saying “beauty requires sacrifice”, then it directly refers to sticking eyelashes. The procedure increases the time of applying makeup, requires dexterity and some skills (obtained through training), but the woman will look brighter and more impressive than ever.
