If you have short, pale and thin eyelashes, mascara can probably give you little help. The simplest solution is False Eyelashes which not only allows you have long and black eyelashes, they can also miraculously make your eyes look bigger! Compared to implantation of eyelashes and eyelashes perm, false eyelashes allow minimal damages to your delicate eyelashes while giving you the best effect.

Step 0: (I assumed you have already chosen your false eyelashes with the best color and type) Before actually doing anything on you eyelashes, you should first clean your eyes thoroughly. If you have oil or other make-up debris on your eyelid or upper lashline, it will be difficult to allow the eyelash glue to work well.

Step 1: Curl your real eyelashes with the eyelash curler. If you find that your real eyelashes actually grow unevenly or hard, you may wish to curl them for several times. Make you your real eyelashes are really curly, so that they look really natural when you have applied you false eyelashes on.

Step 2: Take your fake eyelashes out carefully with your fingers. Hold the two ends of the false eyelashes and bend them for around 10 times to make them soft and look more natural.

Step 3: Most of fal se eyelashes that you can buy from stores are simply too long. You must trim them with respect to the length of you own eyes.

Tips: Trimming them to the length 2-3mm longer than you actual eye length gives you the best effect.

Step 4: Apply a thin layer of eyelash glue to base of the false eyelashes. (Please do not try to apply the glue directly onto your eyelid!) In stead of directly squeezing the eyelash glue onto the false eyelashes, you may wish to use a toothpick.

Tips: You may wish to apply a liitle bit more on the two ends of the false eyelashes as they may fall easily from you eyelid.

Tips: You can at this point bend the fake eyelashes a little bit more (again) to make it softer.

Step 5: Now you need the help with the mirror! Look into the mirror, lift up a bit your eyelid with your fingers. Bring the false eyelashes to your lashline as close as possible, and then apply them from the inner end to the outer end. Press and hold a little bit during the applying.

Tips: If you find the two ends fall, you can use toothpick to help apply more glue onto the false eyelashes.

Step 6: Look into the mirror again and adjust a bit the false eyelashes to make them look good and natural just before the glue has completely dried up.

Tips: It is best to have your mirror at your eye level and fix your elbow joint on the table.

Finally, hold the eyelashes (especially the two ends) for a little longer (around 30 seconds) when the false eyelashes have been finished applying.

Step 7: To embellish you false eyelashes, you may wish to curl your false eyelashes and your real eyelashes together at the same time, apply your eyeliner and even mascara (optional).

General Tips for Trimming and Applying False Eyelashes

Your false eyelashes look great when you have just bought them, but they are just too great that they look unnatural and you should never try to apply them without trimming.

The first thing to remember when you trim the false eyelashes is to make sure the fake eyelashes for you left and right eyes should be the same in thickness. You can even use only half-piece of the false eyelashes buy cutting them into two. You can put the trimmed fake eyelashes on every part like the outer corner or the center of your lashline of your eyes to enhance your eye look. Two simple tips:

If you want to have your eyes looked closer to each other, apply only part of the piece of the false eyelashes.
If you want to have your eyes looked apart, apply only part of the piece of the false eyelashes at the outer corner.

To apply your false eyelashes naturally, take a look at the following tips:

As the ends of the false eyelashes are easy to fall, so use a little bit more glue on the base of the false eyelashes ends.
Let no glue get onto the false eyelashes (except the base).
The glue on the false eyelashes works the best when it is nearly dry, so roughly wait for around 20 (depends on your type of eyelash glue) seconds.
Just nearly the glue is on the false eyelashes base is going to dry, pull a little the false eyelashes to make it softer.
Look into the mirror, adjust the angle of the false eyelashes before you actually applied them.
Apply the false eyelashes to the upper lashline as close as possible.
Use your hands to hold the false eyelashes for around 30 seconds (depends on your type of eyelash glud) after you have just applied.
If you find the ends falling, that means the glue is not enough, you can use the toothpick to dip some glue and apply them onto the ends, then apply the false eyelashes again.
We normally do not have eyelasehes grown at the inner corner, when applying the false eyelashes, leave 1mm space for the inner corner.

REMEMBER! The glue works best when it is nearly dry and if you apply the false eyelasehes at this right time, the glue is colorless and that gives you the best effect. If you apply the eyelashes too early before the glue is nearly dry, it is very difficult to get the false eyelashes sticked to the upper lashline. When you repeat the procedures again several times as the eyelashes fall, the glue can become white, and then you must put on your eyeliner to cover.
