If you are trying your hand at DIY eyelash extensions, we have some useful tips for you. We know you are intrigued and mystified as to how to apply it the proper way. They are very easy to wear using the right tools and are not that different from the typical salon lashes.
Easy
You can now do eyelashes all by yourself at home and get stunning salon results. Try eyelash extensions at home with some good products that are handmade by skilled artisans. High-quality lashes are bonded with skin-safe gum and cotton thread. However, before you try it on, go through the guided instructions thoroughly.
The tools needed to do eyelash extensions at home are eyelash glue, individual eyelashes, mascara, and an application. Make sure the mascara is not waterproof. Use blue glue rather than white glue, as blue can blend in well with the lashes and would look better than white glue.
Declutter
Wearing a DIY lash extension is more permanent than the disposable ones that you have in your makeup bag. As such, you can get rid of the lashes and the paraphernalia that comes along with it from your makeup kit. This can declutter the makeup bag and keep it clean.
On the contrary, temporary eyelashes or dailies can only be worn once and must be disposed of at the end of the day. This means that you need to have a whole month’s supply, which can make your kit bulky. By opting to wear DIY lash extensions, you can declutter your makeup and make room for other grooming items.
Beautiful
Wearing DIY lash extensions can make your eyes pop and make them look dramatically beautiful. It can be further enhanced by applying mascara on top of it. You need to be careful when applying mascara because it is different from applying mascara to natural ones. If done wrongly, it can damage the lash application.
The way to do it is by cleaning your lashes with a comb to position them straight. Then apply mascara gently, starting from the middle and ending at the tips. Avoid the area of the skin where it meets the lashes. Try to apply mascara to only the tips. The rule of thumb is to use a single coat.
Maintenance
The best thing about DIY eyelashes is that you can clean them at home without any hassle. But after you have put on your DIY eyelashes, it takes at least a day to dry fully. So, make sure you start cleaning them only after it is dry. Otherwise, you would end up wrecking the lashes.
It is easy to maintain eyelashes at home. Cleanse and get rid of your makeup before you start cleaning your lashes. Use a non-oily makeup remover to clean your face. Next, wipe off your eye makeup using an oil-free solution using a cotton tip. Now, you can proceed and clean your permanent eyelashes.
Long-lasting
The longevity of permanent eyelash extensions is based on the way it is applied. Meaning its correct application would ensure that it stays in place longer. The eyelash kit contains step-by-step instructions on how to use it properly. Follow the guidelines and use the appropriate tools that come along with them.
To do extensions, you need bonding glue, fine tweezers, eyelash comb, sponge, gel pads, and eyelash sealer. Putting on your eyelash extension using the right tools in the right manner is the key to its longevity. When you apply it as directed by the step-by-step instructions, the procedure is a pleasant experience.
Salon vs. home
Salon eyelash application is pricey and can interfere when applying face creams. It may also wreak havoc on the natural lashes depending on the quality of the glue. Professional extensions require you to spend a bit more time on their upkeep. Their application can take a couple of hours if done in a salon.
On the hand, DIY lashes are not only easy to apply and take little time but are also more affordable. You can get to buy all the necessary tools to put your lashes on for a fraction of the amount. They also do not look as dramatic as the salon look, but they would look defined.
