Before you apply false eyelashes:
- Apply eyeshadow, if desired (I always apply eyeshadow before I apply false eyelashes, because the lashes could get in the way if I applied them first. However, wait to apply mascara until after the false lashes are on securely).Small scissors
- Apply eyeliner.
- Coat the entire false eyelashes with powder while they’re still attached to the plastic tray it came with in the packaging. This helps prevent the false lashes from sticking together, but this isn’t a required step.
APPLYING FALSE EYELASHES
STEP 1
Gather the following (or similar) items:
-Pair of false eyelashes
-Duo Eyelash Adhesive-Small scissors and Tweezers
-Brush with thin handle
-Wood stick (you can find these in the nail polish/supplies section at your local drug store) or a Q-tip
STEP 2
Gently peel off the false eyelash by rolling it off the container with your thumb and index finger.

Tug the eyelash band a little, and then squish them inwards (as shown on the right). Roll the false eyelashes by moving one side down while moving the other side up — do this a few times to help make the band more flexible.
STEP 3
Look down and align the false eyelashes along your lash line. It helps to hold the false eyelashes with a tweezer. While keeping your iris as centered as possible, notice where the color of your iris begins (the side closer to your nose, as indicated by the pink line). Then count the number of lash clusters on the eyelash band from the end closest to your nose until you reach the part where the color of your iris begins.

STEP 4
Clip the inner part of the false eyelash band that you counted off in Step 3. The inner part (the one that will be closest to your nose) is usually the part of the band where the lashes are the shortest — if this is not the case, then check that you have the correct false eyelash band for the eye you are applying it to.
STEP 5
Apply some Duo Eyelash Adhesive on the end of an orange wood stick.

If you don’t have a wood stick, you could break a Q-tip in half and apply glue on one of the broken ends.
STEP 6
Apply glue along the false eyelash band with the orange wood stick (or Q-tip). Make a few passes with the glue to make sure there is glue on the entire band, especially the middle and both ends.

Allow the glue to dry for a few seconds — the tackier the glue is, the better.
STEP 7
Hold the false eyelashes with a tweezer on the outside corner and your thumb and index finger on the inner part. Look down and align the false eyelashes by focusing on the middle first by making contact there, and then pressing down the ends. Follow the shape of your eyeliner/your natural eyelash curve.
Then lightly pinch the false eyelashes and press the band into and slightly upwards on your skin.
STEP 8
Use the end of a brush with a thin handle to help press the false eyelashes in and upwards. This will help the eyelashes sit up and be even more noticeable.
You can also use the end of the brush handle to press in the outer and inner parts of the lash band to make sure they are glued in well.
STEP 9
Touch up your eyeliner by going over it again, making sure to cover up the false eyelash band.
STEP 10
Wait eyeline to dry and curl your lashes. Both together-yours and fake!
Apply mascara to both your natural and fake eyelashes. A trick to bond your real lashes with the false ones is to lightly place your pinkie finger behind the false eyelashes, and then use the mascara wand to press your natural lashes to the fake ones.
Finish!!!!!!!!
Ready to go!!!!xxxxxxxxx
