Have you ever heard of the art of false eyelash application? In the world of beauty, false eyelashes are used like a painter's brush to give the eyes a magical charm. However, for many beginners, learning the process of false eyelash application can be challenging.
Historically, from the ancient Egyptians who used natural materials to decorate their eyes to the modern beauty industry, false eyelashes have played an important role. Nowadays, false eyelashes have become one of the essential tools for makeup artists and a weapon for many beauty lovers in their pursuit of beauty.
Learning to apply false eyelashes is really not an easy task. Many people have had countless urges to give up in the process, as if they had become an “eye disabled person”. So why is it so difficult to apply false eyelashes? Let's explore this together.
First of all, for beginners, the process of applying false eyelashes is indeed challenging. It is difficult to count the number of people who have cried their hearts out during this learning process. Some beauty bloggers claim that “a few steps to teach you how to apply false eyelashes” is basically a lie, and this is not unreasonable. Because in fact, almost everyone who learns to apply false eyelashes will encounter various problems.
1. Analysis of common mistakes
- Don't clip the lashes: Many people have naturally short eyelashes, and especially those who regularly wear false eyelashes may think they can't clip them. However, the result is often that even if the false eyelashes are applied at the right angle, the real eyelashes will separate completely from the side, looking very comical. Just like a novice beauty blogger who once didn't clip her eyelashes when applying false eyelashes, and as a result, when attending an important party, the false eyelashes suddenly separated, embarrassing her.
- Pasting them too high: When many beginners first learn how to apply false eyelashes, they often end up with false eyelashes that almost touch the upper eyelid. This is mainly because the lash stems of the false eyelashes are not pasted to the base of the real eyelashes, and some are even pasted directly between the folds of the double eyelids. Imagine if your false eyelashes are pasted too high during an important interview, giving the interviewer an unprofessional impression.
- Too low: If you find that your vision is blocked after applying false eyelashes, it is likely because you have applied them too low. Some people go a bit too far in order to blend their real and false eyelashes together well and make the effect more natural. For example, a woman on a date had her mood affected by the fact that she could not see the other person's expression clearly all evening because her false eyelashes were too low.
2. Three steps to correctly applying false eyelashes
Although the technique for applying false eyelashes cannot be learned in a few words, it can actually be completed in just three steps.
Prepare the tools: mascara, eyebrow scissors, and eyelash curler.
Step 1: After applying eye shadow and eyeliner, you can start applying the false eyelashes. This step is like building a beautiful stage for the eyes, so that the false eyelashes can show off their charm on it.
Step 2: First curl your real eyelashes, starting at the base and working your way up. Don't just curl one section, as this will make the eyelashes look more natural and last longer. This is like putting a gorgeous coat on your real eyelashes, so that they blend in better with the false eyelashes. Then glue the base of the false eyelashes. You can use an eyelash curler or eyebrow curler to fix the false eyelashes in place, and apply the glue evenly. When it dries, it will be transparent. Beginners should be warned here not to use glue that turns black when it dries, because if you accidentally apply it incorrectly, you may have to remove your entire eye makeup and start again, which will undoubtedly waste a lot of time and effort.
Step 3: Use an eyelash curler to attach the lash bar of the false eyelashes to the base of the real eyelashes. You can start by using the position of the eyeball as a fixed point, and then attach the false eyelashes to the left and right positions. You can adjust the position slightly while the glue is still wet.
This step is like finishing a beautiful painting, where every detail needs to be carefully adjusted to ensure a flawless final result.
The key to successful false eyelash application is to firmly attach all lash roots to the base of the real lashes, so that the real and false lashes blend perfectly together, without obstructing the line of sight or affecting normal eyelid blinking.
3. Demonstration of three types of false eyelashes
There are many types of false eyelashes on the market, but the following two are commonly used by makeup artists and are also very popular with customers.
- Short at the front, long at the back: Short at the front means that the part of the false eyelashes near the inner corner of the eye is shorter, while long at the back means that the part of the false eyelashes near the outer corner of the eye is longer. The main purpose of these false eyelashes is to visually lengthen the outline of the eyes, making them look more beautiful and attractive. Just as ancient beauties often used various decorations to highlight their eyes, we can also show off our charm with these false eyelashes.
- Thick type: The thicker style is more suitable for people with smaller eyes or for use in formal occasions. It can make the eyes look brighter and more attractive, attracting everyone's attention. For example, at a grand dinner party, a woman wearing thick false eyelashes instantly becomes the focus of the whole room.
There is also an even more exaggerated style, which we will not go into detail here as it is more suitable for graphic or creative purposes.
The natural style is suitable for everyone, especially for commuting makeup. It allows you to show your natural beauty in daily life without being too showy.
In short, there are many types of false eyelashes on the market, and it is important to choose the ones that suit you. If you found this article helpful, you are welcome to visit our official website to browse our products and we will provide you with the best shopping experience.
