Good Quality Eyelashes Can Look Natural

By Larry Hall


Many individuals wear false lashes to draw attention to their eyes. Depending on the lashes, they can look fake but it can also be difficult to tell that they are not natural. Some people do not want to wear them because they believe applying them is difficult. Most good quality eyelashes are not that difficult to apply and they form a fitting frame for beautiful eyes.

Lashes come in many different thicknesses, sizes and shapes. Some are longer and thicker than others. Some come in strips and others as individual lashes or in trios. There are those with clear or invisible bands and others with a black band. They type with the black band is actually less visible against the dark lashes of the eye.

Lashes can be made with many different materials. Popular choices include synthetic hair, horse hair, mink, faux mink, sable and even human hair. Synthetic ones are durable and can be made as fine and natural looking as real hair at a more affordable price. Some cheaper varieties can look plastic and shiny.

When choosing lashes, it makes sense to keep the shape of the eyes in mind. Upturned eyes are likely to require a different shape of lash to ones that turn down. Eyes that are deep set look better with full, long lashes and those that are more prominent will look odd with very long lashes that make them stand out even more.

Eyelash extensions are usually fitted by professionals but false lashes can be applied at home. Glue is usually used on but sometimes magnets are used that make them easier to apply and remove. Clear glue may seem like a better option but in fact, when it dries it leaves some white. Dark glue is more discreet and blends with the color of the lashes.

These products are not made to fit every eye perfectly. Lashes should be lined up to the eye lid before applying and any excesses can be cut off if necessary. Cutting them at this stage makes the application process much easier. Always be sure never to apply them onto your eyelids. If they are glued to the eyelids, an empty space may be noticed and it looks anything but natural.

False lashes are not water resistant so you cannot wear them in the swimming pool or the sea. Shedding tears can also loosen them. It is best not to touch them too much either as this may also loosen them.

It is possible to wear false lashes more than once if they are carefully removed. It is suggested that removing them with fingers instead of tweezers causes less damage. Remove any mascara with makeup remover and they will be clean enough to wear a second time. Applying mascara before or after applying false lashes is up to the individual. In the case of strip lashes, most people choose to apply mascara after applying the lashes because it helps to blend the false and natural lashes.
