Your Guide to Lucious Eye Lashes (Real or Fake)

If you love thick, long, and luxurious eyelashes, here is a comprehensive guide on how to achieve them.

Curl your Eyelashes for a Sexy Lift

Working with your lashes is a huge deal. Don't bank on your mascara to get your lashes in perfect date night beauty. An eyelash curler is a natural, no-nonsense device for ensuring your eyelashes are perfectly lifted.

Put the curler at the base of your upper eyelashes and squeeze and hold for at least 15-20 sec. Work your way to the tip of your eyelashes as you pump a few times.

Use a Primer

Before you use your mascara, treat your eyelashes to some lucid mascara primer.

Lash primer was created to thicken the base of your eyelashes for more volume and effect. Adding primer to your makeup is particularly significant if you have thin or weak eyelashes. Many women steer clear of mascara as they think that their eyelashes break during makeup removal, a primer will help prevent this damage.

Tightlining is an Eye Makeup Must

When you want to give your eyelashes the illusion of being more voluminous and your eyes the look of a mysterious pool of desire, then consider tight-lining techniques. Stylist and cosmetologist everywhere encourage tight-lining to give your eyes lift, pop, and definition.

Tight lining involves filling in the spaces between your lashes in the upper lash line with eyeliner. While this technique may sound complicated, it isn't. 

Use Mascara Correctly

So you know that mascara is the only way for getting luscious lashes, but do you know precisely how to go about applying this miracle maker? 

Excess mascara must be wiped off the wand before application. Blot the mascara wand smoothly on a piece of dry tissue or use the rim of the tube to shake off any excess.

Powder between Layers of Mascara

You may have heard that applying different coats of mascara is a great thought. It is, but only if you do this correctly, as too much mascara causes clumps. If you let the initial coat dry before applying another layer, you will likely end up with spidery lashes.

Instead, apply another coat while the first one is still wet. This ensures that your eyelashes long, full, look plush, and clean. Also, consider dusting some powder over your eyelashes before applying mascara, and between the coats to plump them up even more.

Comb your eyelashes

We always brush through our hair before we style it, and we should also do the same with our eyelashes. 

A vital step to getting sultry and flirty lashes is using a lash comb. Keep one handy in your makeup kit. The tip is to comb out your eyelashes before you apply mascara. This separates your lashes to avoid clumping. After you have applied double coats of mascara, run the comb through your lashes once more.

While it is real that combing after applying mascara may take some of the product off, the result is more defined and voluminous eyelashes.
