How to: Natural fake lashes

Sometimes false lash strips can look too “perfect” with their synchronized order of lash length and lash amount. In turn, it can look fake defeating the purpose.


What I like to do, depending on the look I want, is cut the lashes into pieces. Anywhere from 3-5 pieces. Then I apply them one by one but in a different order and overlap them. Sometimes I put the longer pieces in the middle. Sometimes I put a short piece, long piece, short. The result looks “fluffy” and natural.


I drew a small sketch of what I mean:


Here are the lashes. On the left are the cut pieces and the right is the original strip.


1. Before. Bare skin.
2 + 3. I added two pieces. The longest in the middle.
4 + 5. All 5 pieces attached.


I hope this helps! I thought I would do a giveaway of 5 various fake lashes. Just subscribe to my blog (on the right side of my blog underneath the big gray arrow, enter your email address) and I’ll pick a random winner next week :)
