While it’s fun to go wild with over-the-top lashes once in a while, sometimes you just need a more natural and subtle look that enhances your eyes without being too dramatic. Mastering the art of false lashes allows you to create a seamless, professional look that draws compliments without appearing artificial. Improve your lash game with these ways to make your false lashes look natural, elegant, and beautiful.
Apply Them to Your Lash Line
Placement is one of the most important parts of getting your false lashes right. If you apply the lashes too high up on the eyelid, you create a blank space between the false lash line and your real lash line. Even a fraction of a centimeter can be noticeable, so take your time and use an eyelash applicator to place the lashes exactly where you want them.
Choose the Right Lash Style
When it comes to false lashes, not all styles are created equal. If you want a natural look, opt for lashes that are shorter in length and have a thin, transparent band. Avoid styles that are too long, thick, or dramatic, as they can overpower your eyes and appear too bold for the natural look you’re going for.
Decide on Clear vs. Dark Adhesive
The key to making false lashes look natural is using the right adhesive. But does that mean clear or black glue? Both can create a natural look—if you know when and how to use them.
Match your lash adhesive to the overall look you desire. If you’re creating a bare makeup look with thinner eyeliner, clear glue will complement your lashes better. But if you’re aiming for darker mascara and eyeliner, a black adhesive blends in well and eliminates the risk of white clumps standing out from the rest of your makeup.
Blend Them With Mascara
After applying your false lashes, one of the best ways to make them look natural is to use a coat of mascara to blend them with your own lashes. This will help create a cohesive look and make the false lashes appear more natural. Be sure to use a lightweight mascara formula that won’t weigh down the false lashes or cause them to droop throughout the day.
