How to Put on False Eyelashes in 5 Easy Steps
We love the look of false lashes, but applying them? Not so much. So, determined to figure out how to put on false eyelashes the right way!
After finishing the selected eyeshadow and eyeliner, curl your eyelashes and apply mascara.
2. Apply glue on the eyelashes
Using tweezers, use a cotton swab to gently stick the eyelashes and adhesive onto the eyelash band.
Never squeeze the glue from the tube directly onto the lash base,put a drop of glue on the middle of a Q-tip and drag the lash through it. This adds just the right amount.
A note on color: dark glue will blend into your eyeliner better. Ricky prefers black glue since it blends right into the lashes. But worry not: the standard white stuff will dry clear, so you'll be fine. Duo Eyelash Adhesive comes in black and clear.
3. Wait for the Glue to Dry Slightly
This is a game-changer: Let the glue dry for about 30 seconds. It'll make the fake lashes less likely to slide around when you apply. It's important to wave the lash around for a bit after adding the glue,This lets the formula dry enough to become tacky, preventing you from getting glue all over the place.
4. Adhere the Strip to Your Lash Line and Press It Into Place

Using the tweezers again, put the lashes in place right where your eyeliner is and press them into the lash line.
5. Apply black eyeliner to hide the lash band
The extra eyeliner and another layer of mascara tie them together and fill in any small gaps. Note: Although adding a light mascara to false eyelashes can help blend it with your real eyelashes, it also limits the number of times the pair of eyelashes can be used to one or two times.
