how hard can it be?

i wear false eyelashes everyday, purely due to the fact i hate putting mascara on! it doesn't suit me at all and makes it look like i've got no make-up on. i love the fact false eyelashes are now in fashion! throughout the day i usually wear pretty natural looking ones, and take them off at night. i can apply the individual lashes quite well, however i am giving my eyelashes a rest. i work at my mums hair salon whilst at uni, and the girls are always asking me to put their eyelashes on for them as they find it hard to do. heres a few handy tips;

-before doing anything, measure the eyelashes to your own, and cut them down if needed- this will stop them from poking in your eyes

-once youve applied the glue onto the eyelash, let it dry for about 30 seconds or a little longer

-if youve put quite a lot of glue on, run your finger along it and get rid of the big blobs

-always use tweezers to apply the lashes to your eyes

-close the eye that your putting the eyelash on, and keep the other one open (i know this sounds silly, but it is harder to put the eyelash on whilst your eye is open)

-false eyelash strips can be re-used for about 3 weeks- i just pick off the glue!

for the falsies virgins-

these ARDELL 113 eyelashes are my favourites and are from boots- for a reasonable £5.09. 

my night out favourites-

these eylure 147 lashes are my favourite to wear on a night out- i like false lashes to be quite wispy, giving a more natural and fluttery effect. these lashes cost £5.00 from boots or superdrug.

i also bought some eylure under-false-lashes for a party i am going to tomorrow night. it is my first time wearing them so ill let you know how it goes! i got them from superdrug, they came with upper lashes for £7.00.
