Wearing false eyelashes is a top trick to make your eyes pop and add extra glamour and allure to your face. False lashes are extremely flattering and it’s no wonder why they are so popular today! Many women love to wear their false eyelashes to a party or special event, but lots of people also choose to wear them every day. False eyelashes are a convenient way of giving you fluttery thick lashes, without having to book an expensive lash extension appointment. False eyelashes can also be easily be removed and are not semi-permanent like eyelash extensions.
But for beginners, it can be bewildering to decide which false eyelashes to choose. After all, there are different thicknesses, lengths, applications and more that differ between pairs. Here we have come up with our top tips to help you to choose your first set of false eyelashes.
Decide where you want to wear your false eyelashes
Figuring out where you want to wear your new false eyelashes will help you to determine which style to go for. If you are considering purchasing a new pair of false eyelashes for a fancy event, you might choose a thicker and longer set of eyelashes. For events where you want to ‘dress up’ a bit more, this is the perfect style to go for as it will really enhance your eyes and overall look. By choosing a thicker set of eyelashes, you can dress down the rest of your makeup if you so choose.
However, if you are looking to wear your falsies for a costume or for cosplay, this is the chance for you to go all out and get the biggest or most sparkly pair of false eyelashes to truly make your look stand out!
If on the other hand, you are contemplating purchasing lashes for everyday wear, to be worn at work or running errands for example, we suggest opting for false lashes that are more natural, and thinner and shorter than other pairs available. In this way, the false lashes will give you a subtle look while enhancing your eyes. The more natural looking and lighter lashes will also be more comfortable to wear for longer periods of time and not too heavy.
Price and quality
The price and quality you desire for your false eyelashes is another factor to consider before you settle on your final choice. Though it may be tempting to buy the first and cheapest pair you see, spending a bit more on a nicer quality set will benefit you in the long run by lasting you longer. By choosing false eyelashes that are better quality, you can expect them to be more comfortable on your delicate peepers AND you can expect them to look more realistic too, which is the most essential attribute when choosing false eyelashes.
Lashes that are made from mink, virgin remy human hair, and premium materials will give benefits that synthetic and plastic-based lashes simply cannot. Lower quality lashes will likely have a shorter lifespan too. By investing in a quality set of false eyelashes, you can wear them over and over again (making sure you wash them in between wears), so you can really get your money’s worth.
Application
There are different methods of applying false lashes. Most false lashes are applied with a glue adhesive to stick to your eyelid. Glue application offers advantages of a secure and seamless fit, but the glue can also be tricky to apply for first-time wearers. New lashes on the market use a magnetic application, where the lashes are held on with magnets, which can be simpler for beginners to apply.
So, there you have it! To choose your first set of eyelashes simply consider where you want to wear them, the quality, and the application. It really is that easy. Once you wear false lashes for the first time, you’ll be obsessed!
