For an extreme, dramatic, celebrity inspired, and glamorous Make Up application. Every top Make Up Artists first choice would be false lashes. It’s almost safe to say that several coats of mascara doesn’t do the trick anymore. In fact too many coats of mascara can make an eye treatment look dirty, and the lashes clumpy.
When most individuals think of the words “false lashes” exaggerated images of false lashes are what probably comes to mind. Like this picture
False Lashes are definitely suppose to be fun, and add drama to any played down look. Just like Hair Extensions we have control on the amount of length and thickness we’d like to add to are eyelashes. In fact Eye Lash extension’s work almost the same way Hair Extensions do. The stripped and individual lashes that are commonly applied with a DUO adhesive or glue, would be almost like clip on hair extensions. You have to advantage of applying them, and removing them on the same evening. Semi-Permanent lashes are applied with a Cyanoacrylate Adhesive; which is very similar to a crazy glue.
My personal favorite to use as a Make Up artist and on myself are temp stripped lashes with a combination of short & long individual lashes.
I apply this combination of stripped and individual lashes with a small bead or strip of DUO glue in dark. This product does contain LATEX. If you or your client may have possible allergic reactions to LATEX try REVLON‘S Precision lash glue this is a LATEX FREE product.
You can also find fun start up kits with Lash applicators, glue, lashes and other useful tools to help apply lashes.
A semi-permanent lash treatment can last 3-6 weeks. It has the huge advantage if you’re the type of person that uses false lashes frequently. These semi-permanent lashes adds length & thickness to your lashes. No fuss for at least 3 weeks. An Eye Lash Extension can start from $125.00 and up.
If your looking for another permanent option for Lashes ask your Physician about Latisse.
Here is a video of YouTube blogger, and make up artist Kandee Johnson demonstrating how to apply false lashes.
