I got a pretty set of lashes from the DODO lashes team (THANKS so much!) and I thought it would be a prefect way to add some glam to my look for a wedding. At first I thought the lashes were way too long. I have always stayed on the conservative side when applying makeup, so this was kind of a big deal for me. Once you find a set of lashes you like, follow these steps:
Step 1: Apply mascara
Curl natural lashes and comb on a coat of mascara, creating a shelf to support the weight of your falsies.
Step 2: Cut to fit
There are many ways to cut your lashes to fit. I trimmed a bit off one of the ends. You can also cut the lash band right down the center to create a large individual lash. It's easier to place than a full lash strip, which can become wonky and weird and asymmetrical.
Step 3: Add adhesive
Trace each lash band, one by one, with a laser-thin line of lash glue and wait a few moments for the adhesive to dry a bit.
Step 4: Put 'em on
Using your fingers, not tweezers, place your extension on the outer corner first, hugging that lash line tight." For an eye-lifting effect, you can place the outer extension slightly above the natural lash line.
I had to try a few times before I got it right but I'm pleased with the results. I'm happy I wore long lashes to the wedding. I got so many compliments! Do you like wearing falsies? Share your tips and tricks, I'd love to hear from you!
