The color scheme of the decorative material is quite wide and is selected depending on the general image and stylistic direction.
Particular attention must be paid to the length of the artificial material, which should not be more than 2 mm from the size of natural eyelashes. The thickness also needs to be selected individually and make sure that overlay decor did not weigh down the eyelids.

How to apply eyelashes step by step?
The technology of gluing false eyelashes at home is a simple process that still requires patience and professional skills. In order to properly apply and glue eyelashes at home, it is necessary to carefully study the process, and it’s better to take training courses from professional masters who will surely help to build beautiful and voluminous cilia.
Preparation
Before proceeding directly to the process of gluing false eyelashes, a number of preparatory measures should be performed. First of all, you need to choose the right type of artificial material, which should be sure to match the length, thickness and color of your own eyelashes.
To create the maximum level of fixation, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the working area from dirt, dust, sweat and cosmetic residues. Any of the above contaminants will not allow the glue to securely fix hairs on the eyelid.
If the procedure is performed for the first time, experts recommend that before fixing, to conduct a kind of fitting. In the purchased packaging you can see eyelashes of different lengths. This fact often makes fashionistas think about the location of each hair. In order not to have to redo the work, it is better to attach hairs to the selected places without glue and objectively evaluate the possible result. If the result does not live up to expectations, then it can be adjusted and the density of hairs changed.
Main stage
The technology for fixing eyelashes consists of the following manipulations:
- placing a small amount of glue on a piece of aluminum foil;
- extracting the selected material from the package;
- glueing only the base of the eyelashes;
- gluing the material to the selected place 30 seconds after applying the adhesive.
Glue the hairs directly above the root of these eyelashes, trying to slightly open the eyes silently. If the beam could not be placed exactly in the desired place, then it can be removed at a time when the glue has not yet hardened. If the composition has already hardened, it is better to wait for it to solidify and with tweezers to separate from the eyelid, remove the remaining glue and repeat the manipulation.
Experts recommend working with each eye separately, then the image and form will be more clear and correct. Eyelashes need to be glued starting from the middle of the century and gradually moving towards the edges, while increasing or decreasing their length.
The most important thing in the process of work is to strictly adhere to the natural form and change the thickness of the fibers depending on the natural features of the face.
Final procedures
After the main stage of work has come to an end, and all selected bundles of fibers have been glued, experts recommend waiting at least 20 minutes to completely harden the fixing composition and touch the eyelids with your fingers, trying to check the level of fixation. If all indicators are normal, you can begin to combine natural and artificial cilia by curling them.
The twisting device must not touch the eyelid, since a hot plate can soften the glue and ruin the work.
The final stage in creating the image is the application of decorative makeup. Shadows, eyeliner and, of course, mascara will help to create a more expressive look.
How to remove by yourself?
The universality of false bun eyelashes lies not only in the simplicity of their fixation, but also in the possibility of removal at home. You can remove the decorative element yourself quickly and without the use of special compositions. Beginning fashionistas must always remember that the skin of the eyelids is very thin and easily susceptible to mechanical damage, and careless actions can provoke the removal of not only artificial fibers, but also their eyelashes.
Technology for removing decorative elements:
- softening glue with a steam bath for the face;
- imposing moist cotton pads on the eyelids;
- separating artificial fibers with a greasy makeup remover;
- accurate separation of glue residues with a cream;
- application of reducing oil on the eyelids.
Manufacturers of decorative cosmetics also offer a wide range of special compounds that will not only help remove glued eyelashes, but also moisturize, soothe and saturate the skin with vitamins.
