If you have shorter, straighter lashes use an eyelash curler to give them some curve and lift which will help to open the eye up and make them look bigger.
Open the eyelash curler like scissors, and position in the middle of the lashes close to the root. The handle of the curler should gently press against your cheek. Close gently, and hold closed for a few moments. Open completely before removing and slide halfway along the lashes and re curl. Curl lashes prior to using mascara or they may stick the curler and pull some of your lashes out. Gently warm the curler by blasting quickly with a warm blow dryer, check the temperature on the back of your hand before using. Burning your eye with hot metal is definitely uncomfortable!
Just as you use a makeup and eye primer to achieve a better application and longer lasting result a mascara base or lash booster applied before mascara a will protect, hydrate and lots volume so that your lashes will look longer and fuller.
Not only will a conditioning balm thicken the lashes, nourishing them with high quality oils, waxes and vitamins will help keep them silky smooth. Mascara base will go on white and dry clear. Coat the lashes to build them up.
Mascara is an essential part of the perfect eye makeup to finish defining and framing the eyes. It is the easiest way to dress up the eyes. It is important to choose the right mascara and brush for your lashes.
Choose a formulation that is highly pigmented for intense colour and long lasting. The right mascara can thicken sparse, fatten the thin and lengthen the short. The latest technology mascaras will help you achieved your desired effect. Different formulations will help you achieve curl ,volume, and optical elongation and different brushes will help you achieve seperation and precise definition to finer and shorter inner and outer corner lashes and added fullness. For a fuller lash, choose an oversized wand or add length with a lengthening formula.
For the ultimate false lash effect mascara my choice is several coats of Wonderlash top and bottom for long, lush lashes. The elastic wand allows maximum lashings of colour and lash separation.
Pump up the volume for a full flutter. Apply 2 - 3 coats of mascara one or two shades darker than your natural lash colour for definition.
Tip: To ensure that the colour does not smear during application, always apply to the lower lashes first and then the upper lashes.
The best way to use mascara is to twirl the wand around the inside of the tube, pumping the wand will force air inside which will dry out the mascara. Also try not to wipe excess at the top of the bottle as this will eventually dry and make the lid sticky.

To make an eye makeup look dramatic and sophisticated, false eyelashes are the way to go and can totally change the look of a makeup and give your look extra oomph.
Faux lashes are fun & flirty and instantly add some glamour. Artificial lashes can be applied for an understated to highly expressive look using Artdeco permanent lashes. There are many different brands of lashes on the market in varying shapes and thickness. Trial and error will determine your favorites and what fits best and works best for your eyes however there are a few styles which are always a good starting point from naturally lush lashes to extremely fake lashes.
Individual lashes - applied to the outer lash line gives a winged effect which lifts the eyes.
Natural lashes - great for all eye shapes and will open and lift the eye. Usually soft and wispy and has a clear lash line to blend easily.
Seperated lashes - great to give your top lashes extra definition. Clear base keeps it looking natural and easy to blend.
3/4 lashes - great for all eyelids to lift and open the outer corner. Usually has a black base for a more defined look. Blend some liner into the lash line into the inner corner for a seamless finish.
High impact/Heavy strip lashes - great for a dramatic look, large and asian eyes. Usually full with a blend of lengths. If you are applying lashes to the bottom lash line apply them first and make sure the adhesive is completely dry before doing the top lashes so they do not get stuck together.

Tip: Apply lashes with a waterproof latex for a long lasting professional result. A standard glue is white and will dry clear. A high strength glue is more suitable for a heavy strip lash for more support.
How to apply falsies perfectly every time
For individual flared lashes:
Curl your lashes first. Apply mascara to top and bottom lashes.
Use tweezers to pick up a flared lash at the base from their box.
Apply a little adhesive to the base, allow it to go tacky so it adheres well and then place the flare lash onto your own lashes as close to the lash line as possible. Work from the outside to the inside.
Apply mascara if desired to blend lashes together and for more definition.
Curl your own lashes so they curve with your false lashes otherwise your natural lashes will poke out from underneath. Apply mascara to coat your own lashes.
Place the lashes against your lash line, if they are too long when you're eye is in a downward position and extends past your natural lash line then trim them to size, remembering that you will want to adhere the outer corner about a half a centimetre from the outer corner of your own lashes so that you don't get that heavy, downward drag which will cause they eye to look droopy and give you a dark shadow under the eye.
Gently bend the lashes back and forth between your fingers so the strip curves naturally to your own lash line.
Apply an even coating of adhesive along the whole length of the lashes and give them 30 seconds for the adhesive become tacky so that it sticks to the base of your lashes easily.
Place the strip as close as possible to your natural lash line. Look down into a mirror while applying your lashes.
The best way to do this is to stick the inner corner, middle, and outer corner to create some stability.
Once you are happy that it is in place, push the rest of the strip in place with the back of your tweezers or the tip of a thin brush handle.
Wait a few minutes for the lash adhesive to dry, then gently curl both fake and natural lashes together so the lashes blend smoothly together.
Gently apply a coat of mascara from underneath to give colour consistency to the real and fake lashes and to blend them together.
To remove lashes simply use warm water or makeup remover, even a little olive oil works on a cotton pad and press onto the falsies for a few minutes to break down the adhesive and then slide off. Gently peel from the outer edge being careful not to pull at your own lashes. Strip lashes can be cleaned and reused.
