I’m pretty good at makeup overall I would say, I always get compliments, but the one thing I can’t do is strip lashes. I’ve successfully put them on before but it’s a lot of struggle and usually irritates my eyes pretty badly. When I wear makeup I usually do very dark, extremely bold eye looks, and I think lashes would really add to a lot of them if I only had some that worked. Does anyone have any recommendations of brands or tips for putting them on? Or even like gadgets that make it easier? Or glue recommendations

    I use more natural looking styles with thin bands, like the Ardell Demi wispies or the Kiss Shy lashes. Those are my two faves and I’ve tried a bunch of them, but I cannot do any lashes with a giant thick band! I tried recently and couldn’t get the inner corners to stick at all.

    I started practicing wearing lashes during the pandemic and it wasn’t long before I could get it down pretty well, so definitely just keep trying! What I did at first was, at night or whenever I knew I wasn’t going anywhere, I’d take a pair to practice with and just glue them on, take them off, and repeat a couple times. Not too much though or you could get your lashes covered in glue.

    Also, I sometimes still struggle with getting my inner corners to stick. I make sure to trim my lashes so there’s nothing stabbing the inside of my eye, lay down the center of the band, then do the inner corner to make sure it sticks and then press down the outer corner. I still mess up sometimes if I’m in a rush, so definitely just take your time and practice makes perfect ❤️ good luck lovely!
