So what is you could achieve that fuller lash look with some handy make-up hints?
Here’s your four step guide to achieving the falsie effect au natural…
Invest in a good eye-lash curler:
It sounds obvious, but the first step in longer lashes is curling what God already gave you. Want to make the curl last longer? Hold you hairdryer on a medium heat over the clasp until it lightly heats the plates. Just be careful not to burn your eyelid by leaving the hairdryer on for too long.
Swipe on a primer:
Make-up artist Kira Nasrat advised Instyle that eyelash primer is the secret tool we’ve all been waiting for:
“Most people skip this step, but if you want your lashes to be full and thick, then prime them. It’s also a great way to protect your lashes and keep them conditioned.
“You can also use this alone or at night as a conditioning treatment.”
Tight-lining your eyes:
This quick technique requires you to apply eyeliner between your lashes and along the upper waterline. The little trick instantly makes your lashes appear thicker.
Be sure to use a waterproof formula to avoid any running.
Nasrat adds that a good pencil might be your best option, explaining:
“You have to have a good pointed tip in order to get in between the root of the lashes.”
Apply your mascara:
Although it might seem obvious to opt for a volumising mascara, it’s a fact that not all products were created equally.
Look through sample mascaras for a wand with a thick brush and densely-packed bristles.
This allows you to scoop up a lot of product without making your lashes look clumpy.
Feel like you can take a little more product. Feel free to apply a second coat (just make sure to have an eyelash brush at hand to comb out any clumps.)
