We've all probably stood there in front of the mirror with mascara and eyelash curlers and tried to get those long and elegant eyelashes. Many times without success. It can actually be difficult to get those Hollywood lashes that all the beautiful celebrities have. But it's not because of your own eyelashes. It's because most people actually use false eyelashes.

With false eyelashes you can create that movie star look and get long, beautiful eyelashes in an instant. Some people have naturally long eyelashes and then it is of course easier to achieve with the help of mascara alone. But for the vast majority of people, false eyelashes are required to make them that long and magnificent.

How do I attach false eyelashes?

To apply false eyelashes, it is important to read the instructions for the particular model of false eyelashes that you have purchased. There are slightly different ways to apply these lashes. It can therefore feel difficult and complicated to start using false eyelashes, especially if you have no previous experience with them.

False eyelashes that are attached with an adhesive are the most common. It is an adhesive that makes the eyelashes attach to your own lash line and it is not difficult to remove. You wash it off with soap and water after you have removed your false eyelashes.

Some false eyelashes are applied a few at a time, while others are applied the entire row at once. Which option you choose is entirely up to you. Some people prefer to apply lashes one by one because they think it looks better.

Then there are also lashes that you put on with the help of a magnet. With these false eyelashes you don't need to use any glue to attach them, you simply attach them with a magnet. Magnetic lashes have become very popular. They are easy to put on and take off and they give a very nice result.

The big advantage of false eyelashes

It can be a little difficult at first if you are not used to handling false eyelashes. They are small and they are fiddly, but practice makes perfect, as they say. The big advantage of using these lashes is that you hardly need to use any mascara. The false eyelashes are already long, dark and beautiful, so you don't really need anything more than that. If you want, you can paint your own lashes a little with mascara before putting the false eyelashes on, then your own lashes will blend in a little more with the false eyelashes. Once you are an expert at attaching false eyelashes, it will be a snap. You also save a lot of time if you use false eyelashes, which is a big plus.
