Step-by-Step Guide to Applying Individual False Lashes

I absolutely love the look of individual false lashes. They can be bumped up for lots of drama or only worn at the outer corners for a subtle eye lift.

They last all day with proper placement and if one does happen to fall out, it still looks more natural than a strip band lifting up.

I wanted to share all my tips and tricks that I learned with individual lashes over the years of working with clients. I developed so many little tricks that worked beautifully every single time, regardless of eye shape.

What I’m Using:

Lash glue Individual lashes Mini scissors and tweezers Magnifying mirror Tubing mascara Metal lash comb Oil lash/makeup remover

Step 1 | Trim Front Lashes

I like to trim mine when they are still in the case, I just pick a pair of lashes and trim one lash down for the right eye and one down for the left eye.

Step 2 | Your Best Lash Shape

I like to start placing my lashes down at the outer edge. I place it down a bit farther in than my natural lashes, for a lifted effect on my hooded and downturned eyes.

Place the next lash down leaving a gap in between the first lash. This makes sure that your glue will get a chance to dry without any other lashes touching each other and causing twisting.

Step 3 | Mind the Gap

Now that the outer lashes are placed, it’s time to frame out the lashes at the front. Grab the trimmed lashes and place them down where you want the lashes to start.
