Look of the Day photo | The Basic Products

The Basic Tips

• Start by separating your own lashes slightly by applying a lightweight mascara. 
• Handle individuals with a slanted tip tweezer dab on a pinhead of glue. Gently tap lash to your palm to remove any excess glue. then allow adhesive to partially dry by fanning for 5 seconds. 
• Position false lashes at the roots of your natural ones. Apply from outer eye, three quarters of the way to the center of eye.






The Basic Products

• Strips or individuals are a personal choice. If you use one long strip, follow the same instructions and just layer across the lash line.
• It’s important that lash glue be clear when drying. 
• If you’d like lashes to be a more natural length trim, them with manicure scissors,  but remember: trim them before they’re on your eyes.










It’s too complicated.

Solution: We know applying falsies can seem intimidating, so start by using just a few singles at the very outer corners of your eyes. It will still add Eva Longoria-esque drama to your eye makeup and once you’ve mastered those, start adding more!

I’m afraid they’ll fall off.

Solution: By now everyone’s heard of pricey lash extensions at salons. We’ve found long-lasting extensions you can do at home. These lash strips are actually placed beneath your lashes right on your lash line with super strong adhesive glue for a natural look that lasts up to seven days.









I’m afraid of damaging my lashes.

Solution: If you apply faux lashes often it’s important to treat yourself with a lash conditioner. Made from natural ingredients like St. John's wort and witch hazel, longer, darker lashes appear with continued use. The unique applicator allows you to sweep the solution on like mascara, then brush it on along your upper lash line with the foam tip. Also, a lot of damage happens in the removal. When it’s time to take off your makeup apply either Vaseline or baby oil and rub eyes gently until lash glue dissolves and lashes are safely removed.
