False eyelashes
False eyelashes - ideal for girls who do not want to suffer with mascara and gel, and look irresistible just need to.
Advantages and disadvantages
Of course, the main advantage of working with false eyelashes is simplicity - if you adjust, their gluing will take only about 10-15 minutes a day, or even less. And this speed, coupled with the quality and ability to quickly transform the view, of course, is captivating.
He considers the possibility of changing the image in record time as another integral part of them - eyelashes come in various forms, including in form, and it is precisely because of this that you can turn from a deer Bambi into a vamp woman by changing eyelashes. They transform eyes, and, means, and all face, change a look. The choice of colors and shapes is simply enormous - from the classic black "cat's-eye" to the feather bright orange and blue.
Of course, false eyelashes are more accessible than extensions, and you don’t have to suffer as much with them as with mascara. The eyes do not get tired of them, the eyelids do not become heavier, and yet they can be worn several times and paint over the ink like your own.
The disadvantages of this tool are mainly related to the fact that it is difficult enough to glue them for the first time, and in the future we need to show patience, “filling the hand”. Also in the case of poor-quality materials and glue, the hairs can disappear at the most inappropriate moment - therefore it is very important to choose them correctly (often the glue that comes with the kit is completely poor quality). And, of course, in the case of the wrong eyelashes, glue and the inability to glue them there is always a chance to injure your own. However, this is solved by appeal to the master.
Sleeping with false eyelashes is also not recommended, but with high-quality glue you can try to fall asleep on your back or side. Bathing in the sea or the pool with them is questionable - if only you are confident in the glue and quality of the cilia and are not going to dive into the water with your head (in this case, they can simply swim away).
Yes, many disadvantages are connected with the fact that the materials can be simply of poor quality, made of material that is allergic to you personally. The consequences in this case - swelling, loss of eyelashes, allergies, discomfort. Also, you can not use false eyelashes for girls, who often suffer from blepharitis and conjunctivitis.
Kinds
False eyelashes are primarily divided by shape. There are three types.
- Single disposable. They create the most natural effect, as each eyelash is glued separately. However, they are professional, and gluing them harder and longer than anyone else and is almost impossible at home.
- Beams make the look more expressive, and small eyes - more. The difficulty in using them lies in the fact that for gluing you need to know certain points, the positions on which they look most beneficial. For example, glued throughout the upper eyelid, they can look unnatural and even funny. They are also further divided into nodular and non-nodular (for example, transparent "corners").
- Ribbon. The simplest and most common, as sold in cosmetic stores and they can be put on their own. They may look both natural (in the case of a transparent fastening tape), and not so much (with black or some other color).They are divided in the shape and size of eyelashes, the most common - round with long eyelashes in the center and shorter at the edges for a wide open look and elongated at the temple, creating a so-called feline look at the expense of elongated to the outer edge of the eyelashes.
Also eyelashes are divided by material - they can be both artificial (more wear-resistant) and natural (more natural, made from mink, horse or human hair, silk). But Paperself has paper eyelashes. Recently a new product appeared on the market - magnetic self-adhesive eyelashes. These are bunches of eyelashes, which are fastened both on magnets to the lower and upper eyelids in one motion and are also easily removed.
False eyelashes can be either classic black or brown colors, or colored, which are often used by models at various shows, but may suit even simple girls for photo shoots or thematic events such as Halloween. Classical Japanese eyelashes, which increase the eyes in their outer corners, are very much appreciated. But the effect is created quite bright, as they are designed for an Asian cut of the eyes.
Securing tools
Of course, just because the eyelashes do not stick. You must purchase a special glue - sometimes it is sold with the kit, but often the quality does not differ and lasts for a terribly short period. We advise you to buy professional glue, since it depends on it how long the eyelashes will last and whether they will come off at the most inopportune moment. Purchase glue of the same brand as the eyelashes. Or you can pay attention to the pharmaceutical adhesive BF-6. It is medical and absolutely not harmful to the eyes.
You may also need tweezers - this is if you are uncomfortable to take bunches with your fingers and stick them on the eyelid with them. Pay attention to tweezers from Ellis cosmetic.
In no case do not use the transparent glue "Moment" or any other household glue - for this your eyelashes and sensitive skin of the face, especially the eyes will not tell you "thank you".
Tips for choosing shape, size and length
In general, when choosing eyelashes, you must consider where you go with them and what makeup you will do. For an evening party, wedding, or birthday party, it's best to choose your lashes brighter and more luxuriant. For photo shoots, pay attention to colored or feather eyelashes. The whole make-up for any photo should be many times brighter and more noticeable than usual everyday. Long, thick black eyelashes are ideal for a party, they should be voluminous.
It is also very important to choose the product to fit the shape of the eye - it is wrongly chosen, it will look comical and can give a person a surprised or childish look. So, for almond-shaped and round eyes, it is better to choose eyelashes or eyelashes elongated to the temples, the curvature of which is close to natural, for small or deep-set eyelashes - long and medium eyelashes (it is important if you do not want a puppet effect so that they are of different sizes in a bundle or tape). For wide-set eyes, cilia on the middle part of the eyelid and in the outer corner should be approximately the same length, for narrow-set eyes, the longest should be on the outer corner, mid-length, and short in the inner corner.
If you are a beginner, then you better pay attention first to tape eyelashes - they are easier to glue, fix and they do not sypyatsya, and also cost less than bundle.
How to make a puppet effect on the eyes?
If you want eyes like a Barbie doll, you need to purchase bundle or ribbon eyelashes of the same length. They must be thick, have a natural shine and not shed. You can pay attention to L'Etoile "Faux-Cils" No. 102, Irisk, Essence "fancy lashes" and in general to any round-shaped eyelashes.
How to impose at home?
It is best to choose bundles or ribbons for home use, since only a qualified craftsman in the cabin will do you the best for singles. Pay particular attention to the tape.
So, first of all, you should buy glue for eyelashes, the best for a beginner - transparent on a non-latex basis, since it leaves no traces and is not allergic.
- Open the package and try the eyelashes on the eye section - lookwhere you would like to remove, which side is more convenient for you to sculpt - the tape should lie so that the short hairs are at the inner corner of the eye. You may have to cut them a little with nail scissors.
- For better bonding, circle the eyelash growth line with a pencil.. Next, take a clean eye shadow brush and apply glue to the edge of the tape with it, wait thirty seconds - the glue should become sticky.
- The most important thing is gluing. You can take the eyelashes with your fingers or tweezers and, with your eyes closed, stick them to the eyelash growth line, starting from the outer corner and gradually moving to the inner corner. Adjust the position of the eyelashes as you like, until they become fixed.
- Now take a cotton swab and cut the cotton part. Spend it as a comb or mascara on the eyelashes, pressing, gluing your eyelashes with false. Instead of a cotton bud, you can use mascara - it will also hold hairs together and make relatives and artificials more similar to each other.
Important! When using eyelashes on a colored, black tape, it’s better to finish the image with arrows, otherwise the tape will be visible.
How to remove your own hands?
How easy the eyelashes are removed, depends on the glue - it is usually very soft and silicone, does not injure the native eyelashes and the skin of the eyelids. You only need to pull the outer corner of the eyelashes and gently remove them. The procedure is painless, safe and very simple.
The second option is to drop a drop of any base or hydrophilic oil at the junction of eyelashes with the eyelid, a little wet with a finger and remove. And you can just wash, but this option often carries with it a trauma to the eyelashes - both your own and the overhead.
Eyelashes dry very quickly, within half an hour, and many of them can be used several times.
How to care?
The first thing you should do after purchasing false eyelashes is to mix the solution to store them. You can buy it, but it will not be difficult to make it yourself and will save you money. Take shampoo, liquid soap and water, the first - five grams, water fifty. Stir the ingredients until smooth, transfer to a convenient container. Now, after each use of eyelashes, they will need to be transferred to this solution for twenty to thirty seconds. After pull out and thoroughly cleaned of residual glue, the solution itself and cosmetics. Rinse them under a soft stream of warm running water and leave to dry between paper towels - never on napkins.
Sleeping with false eyelashes is not forbidden, but it is better not to leave them in front of your eyes at night. Remember also that cropping eyelashes will not damage their quality, but it is better not to overdo it to maintain a beautiful appearance.

In the set there is a pipette with glue, and information on the manufacturer, and instructions.The eyelashes themselves are bunches of hairs of different lengths, but the shape of the ribbon is round - that is, the tufts on the eyelid will look the same, but it is because of the different length that the effect of volume and expressive bending is achieved. They are not prickly, they do not irritate and do not weight the eyelids and do not fall off, they are rather dense, they do not break.
Products L'Etoile "Faux-Cils" it looks more than natural, really looks like its own hairs and is suitable even for everyday use. Girls really appreciate this particular company and its average rating - 4.3. They fit perfectly into the dark "Smokey", the girls lay out a lot of photos of just such a make-up with them.

Despite the fact that Essence "fancy lashes" has a rating of only 4.2, customers speak very well of the eyelashes of this company. First of all, it should be said that this accessory is only for holiday events - they are not suitable for everyday work. They are very sensitive to sensitive skin of the eyelids, do not pull and do not weigh down, moreover, do not injure native hairs. They are practical, dense, long and thick, and they can also be used several times. Of course, they need to be corrected with the help of nail scissors - but for any false tape eyelashes this is normal, because the cut and the shape of the eye are not the same for everyone.
Adhesive Duo Adhesive It has all positive feedback and a rating of 4.2. It is designed specifically for eyelash bundles, as often the glue for them is different from the glue for tapes.

He firmly fastens the bunches for ever and without making them heavier and not creating the effect of frozen eyes - the cilia move along with the eyelids. And the glue is waterproof, so it’s not so easy to remove the eyelashes from the eyes, they will not fall off due to rain, snow or tears and survive in the pool or at sea. Value for money - perfect.
