I love Cloud Parade, I love Nicole DeAnne (who has done my makeup on several occasions, including my own wedding!) and I LOVE this tutorial! False lashes are one of my favorite beauty tricks, but they can be challenging. This tutorial breaks down applying individual falsies step by step to help you avoid a big ‘ol sticky mess on your eyes. Ch, ch, check it out!

 

 

“The first hip online wedding marketplace, Your Cloud Parade, teamed up with the one and only Nicole Deanne Hair & Makeup Artist to bring you this DIY tutorial. Eyelashes have become a new staple for your “night time” makeup, wedding eyes, and really anything that has to do with the big day!”

 

 

 

 

 

What you need:
• One pack of small individual lashes
• And one pack of Medium Individual lashes
•• The Ardell brand is great for this application••
•Ardell Lash Grip eyelash adhesive ( Eyelash glue) We like the black color!
• And tweezers

 

 

 

What to do:

 

 

1.  After make-up application, but before mascara application, apply your lashes.

 

2. You want to first look down, but tilt your head back so you can still see yourself in the mirror.

 

3. Use the medium eyelashes first, grab a cluster of lashes with your tweezers, then lightly dip lashes in the eyelash glue. (We like to have it on the back of our hand or on the container the lashes rest in.)

 

 

 

 

4. Then you want to lightly place each lash on the outside of your eyelid, & rest it right on top of your own lash line. We like to start with the medium size on the outside & towards the center of the eye use the small size lashes.

 

 

 

 

 

5. Apply all over your eye lid.

 

 

 

 

6. Let dry for 4-6 minutes. (Don’t look up or you will get the lash glue all over your eyelids & you will be sad)

 

7. Once dry, look up & apply mascara.

 

 

 

 

I thought I’d ask a couple questions about taking lashes off at the end of the night to wrap things up. Sometimes that can be as difficult as putting them on…

 

 

 

Q: How do you remove the lashes at the end of the night without pulling out or damaging your own lashes?

 

A: “Wash your face with warn water, gently pull on your lashed & the individual ones should come right off. Don’t pull too hard or you will yank out your actual lashes :)”

 

 

 

 

Q: Can you re use the lashes? If so, what’s the best way to keep them clean and in good condition once removing?

 

A: “You can reuse them if you do not apply mascara over them with your application. I don’t normally suggest to because they collect a lot of germs. Plus they are so cheap you can toss them after every use & apply new ones everytime. They look a lot better when they are not worn more than once!”

 

 

 

 

 

Now go get your lashes on, girl!!!
