The dream of every woman is to look beautiful and impressive at any age. To create an irresistible image, girls resort to a huge number of tricks, one of which is false eyelashes. Lush and thick eyelashes allow you to create an expressive and attractive look that representatives of the stronger sex will surely notice.
Given the demand for this type of product, manufacturers produce a wide range of false eyelashes. To create a gentle and natural look, experts recommend paying attention to bundled eyelashes, which can be glued on their own at home without much difficulty and hassle.
Features, pros and cons of the procedure
False eyelashes are a modern and effective method of creating an expressive look. Thanks to simple technology, even novice women of fashion can create a unique image at home both for a solemn event and for every day. Despite the variety of this type of product, masters of beauty salons recommend using beam eyelashes for home use, which, like any decorative material, have both advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages:
- affordable price range;
- ease of use;
- creating a spectacular image for any event;
- no need to visit expensive beauty salons;
- minimum waste of time;
- the possibility of repeated use;
- compatibility with different types of decorative cosmetics;

This type of material is made from artificial fibers that are glued together in small bundles. To create an expressive look, manufacturers place eyelashes of different lengths in one package. Short cilia are designed to be placed near the inside of the eyelid, while long ones are closer to the outside.
Depending on the type of monofilament, cilia are of the following types:
- mink;
- sable;
- silk.
The color range of the decorative material is wide enough and is selected depending on the general image and stylistic direction.
Particular attention must be paid to the length of the artificial material, which should not be more than 2 mm from the size of natural eyelashes... The thickness must also be selected individually and ensured that the overhead decor did not weigh down the eyelids.
Tools and materials
Before you start gluing eyelashes yourself, you need to prepare special tools. The following materials and devices must be on the desktop:
- tweezers;
- false eyelashes;
- fixing glue;
- magnifying mirror;
- pliers for shaping;
- bright table lamp;
- wet wipes;
- cotton pads and sticks;
- mascara with a water-repellent effect.
Be sure to prepare a container with warm water for washing, as well as a special tonic for degreasing the skin.
How to apply eyelashes step by step?
The technology of gluing false beam eyelashes at home is a simple process that still requires patience and professional skills. In order to properly apply and glue eyelashes at home, you need to carefully study the technological process, but it is better to take training courses from professional masters who will definitely help to build up beautiful and voluminous eyelashes.
Preparation
Before proceeding directly to the process of gluing false eyelashes, you should perform a number of preparatory measures. First of all, you need to choose the right type of artificial material, which should be sure to match the length, thickness and color of your own eyelashes.
To create the maximum level of fixation, the work area must be thoroughly cleaned of dirt, dust, sweat and makeup residues. Any of the above contaminants will prevent the glue from firmly fixing the hairs on the eyelid.
If the procedure is performed for the first time, experts recommend to carry out a kind of fitting before fixing. In the purchased package, you can see eyelashes of different lengths. This fact often makes women of fashion think about the location of each hair. In order not to have to redo the work, it is better to apply the hairs to the selected places without glue and objectively evaluate the possible result. If the result does not live up to expectations, then it can be corrected and the density of the hairs changed.
The main stage
Eyelash fixation technology consists of the following manipulations:
- placing a small amount of glue on a piece of aluminum foil;
- removing the selected material from the package;
- smearing with glue only the base of the eyelashes;
- gluing the material to the selected place 30 seconds after applying the glue.
It is necessary to glue the hairs directly above the root of real eyelashes, trying to slightly open the eye. If the bundle did not work out to be placed exactly in the desired place, then it can be removed at a time when the glue has not yet hardened. If the composition has already hardened, it is better to wait for it to completely solidify and use tweezers to separate it from the eyelid, remove the remnants of the glue and repeat the manipulation.
Experts recommend working with each eye separately, then the image and shape will be clearer and more correct. Eyelashes need to be glued starting from the middle of the century and gradually moving towards the edges, while increasing or decreasing their length.
The most important thing in the process of work is to strictly adhere to the natural shape and change the thickness of the fibers depending on the natural features of the face.
Final procedures
After the main stage of the work has come to an end, and all the selected fiber bundles have been glued, experts recommend waiting for at least 20 minutes for the fixative to completely harden and touch the eyelids with your fingers, trying to check the fixation level. If all indicators are normal, you can start combining natural and artificial eyelashes by curling them.
The curler should not touch the eyelid, as the hot plate can soften the glue and ruin the work.
The final stage of creating an image is the application of decorative makeup. Eye shadow, eyeliner and, of course, mascara will help create a more expressive look.
How to remove it yourself?
The versatility of false beam eyelashes lies not only in the ease of fixing them, but also in the possibility of removing them at home. You can remove the decorative element yourself quickly and without the use of special compounds. Novice women of fashion must remember that the skin of the eyelids is very thin and easily lends itself to mechanical damage, and careless actions can provoke the removal of not only artificial fibers, but also their eyelashes.
Removal technology for decorative elements:
- softening the glue with a steam bath for the face;
- applying wet cotton pads to the eyelids;
- separating artificial fibers with a greasy make-up remover;
- neat separation of glue residues with a cream;
- applying a regenerating oil to the eyelids.
Manufacturers of decorative cosmetics also offer a wide range of special formulations that will not only help to remove stuck eyelashes, but also moisturize, soothe and saturate the skin with vitamins.
Useful Tips
Before starting the manipulation, you should carefully study the technology of the procedure and follow all the recommendations of specialists, who advise paying special attention to the choice of glue. It is from this consumable that the quality of the work performed and the external aesthetic appearance depend.
The composition of the glue affects not only the level of fixation, but also the condition of the skin after the procedure, and the presence of allergic reactions. On the shelves of specialized stores, you can see the following types of glue:
- colorless - for colored eyelashes;
- black - for natural eyelashes.
In terms of consistency, the compositions are thick and liquid. The first category of products has a low price range, but can provoke allergic rashes. The second group of products belongs to expensive materials, therefore it does not cause allergies, has no smell and lies flat.
When choosing an adhesive, one must carefully study the composition, which should not contain toxic aldehydes. It is strictly forbidden to purchase and use products with an expired shelf life.
To prevent irritation of the mucous membrane of the eye care must be taken to ensure that the formulations do not come into contact with the eyes, and at the slightest contact with the membrane of the eye, it is necessary to stop the procedure and rinse the eyes with plenty of water. It is strictly forbidden to use false eyelashes on a daily basis. Continuous contact of the glue with the skin can cause serious eye diseases.
