How long do false eyelashes last?

No matter how gorgeous eyelashes nature has endowed the girl, she will still strive to improve them. However, not everyone is ready to apply radical methods such as building or lamination. Then overlays come to the rescue. Many people are worried about how long false eyelashes last. It depends on a number of aspects, which we will discuss in the article.

Before buying, you need to decide on their purpose. If the native cilia are very short, then the false ones will be needed of medium length, for everyday wear. And in case the overlays are needed for any special moments, for example, holidays or parties, you can choose more voluminous and thick ones.

The materials from which artificial eyelashes are made are divided into three types.

• Synthetic components. Strong, but the hairs are quite dense. The main plus is their low price, but this does not mean that quality suffers.
• Silk threads. They look amazing - they shine and shimmer in the sun's rays. They are distinguished by the softness of the fiber, but at the same time, by its lightness and strength.
• Natural pile. Sable or mink wool is commonly used. Quite an expensive option, but their appearance is worth it. They look like thick eyelash extensions, while being as natural as possible. They are used to create evening and festive looks.

The appearance of the models of false eyelashes also differ from each other. There are tape and bundle, the latter, in turn, are nodular and non-nodular. Regardless of their variety, they have one purpose - to make the look more expressive. There are decorative eyelashes for parties and carnivals.They can be of different colors, inlaid with rhinestones or complemented by bright inserts in the form of feathers.

Regarding the attachment, a special glue must be present in the set with eyelashes, which reliably holds the structure for a certain time.

The term of wearing false eyelashes is influenced by various factors, sometimes even beyond our control. In this case, it is important to follow the rules for their use. The correct fastening process includes the following procedures:

• washing and removing cosmetics;
• degreasing the skin of the eyelids;
• determination of the area of ​​fixation of accessories;
• try on every detail, if necessary, remove the excess part with scissors;
• curl with special tweezers;
• holding the tape with tweezers, apply glue, withstand the time specified in the instructions;
• glue the eyelashes to the edge of the eyelid, firmly pressing the strip along the entire length with tweezers, stroking movements;
• with a stack needle, once again go along the entire length of the tape, pressing every millimeter to the eyelid between the cilia;
• close your eyes for a few minutes, letting the glue take hold.

Usually, false eyelashes last up to 20 hours with the glue recommended by the manufacturer. However, in specialized stores or in online stores, you can purchase an adhesive with a stronger hold. Of course, there is a risk of developing allergic reactions, but the use of native glue does not provide any guarantees. Humidity is enemy number one for false eyelashes. Even with full compliance with all recommendations, a few drops of moisture can nullify all efforts. In extreme heat or frost, the adhesive composition can also behave unpredictably. You also need to try to touch your eyes with your hands as little as possible, since any mechanical stress can lead to the accessories peeling off.

Skin type is of great importance. Glued eyelashes last much longer on dry and normal skin of the eyelids... Oily skin will significantly shorten the wearing time. It happens that the strength of the glue is only enough for a couple of hours.

You shouldn't really count on the fact that false eyelashes will last longer than the time indicated on the package. The skin of a person, including on the eyelids, is individual for everyone, so it is not possible to predict how the adhesive mixture will behave. You can check and find out only by trying it on yourself. Based on this - advice: the first use of false eyelashes should not coincide with any significant event in order to avoid unpleasant surprises.

Dermatologists advise against walking with pads on a daily basis. There are several reasons for this:

• glue can irritate the skin or mucous membrane of the eye if used too often;
• voluminous artificial linings can cause premature aging and sagging of the eyelid skin;
• there is a slowdown in the growth of own eyelashes or even their loss.

The best option is to wear false eyelashes only on special occasions. And regardless of how long they can hold out, it is imperative to remove them at the end of the event. This method of application will not only allow you to look bright and unforgettable, but also preserve the health of the hairs and eyelids.

To make the glued eyelashes look like real ones, it is enough to choose the model that best suits the shape and size of the eyes. For example, for deep-set ones, medium-length curved overlays will work. They will make the look open and expressive.If the eyes are located close to each other, then bundle cilia with an emphasis on the outer corners of the eyelid will be relevant. This shape will visually enlarge the eyes and add charm.

Of course, the use of false eyelashes facilitates makeup and improves it qualitatively, but you should not forget about the recommendations, which should be remembered by absolutely all users of these accessories:

• buy only high-quality, proven lining models;
• in the absence of experience in fixing accessories - seek help from a specialist;
• avoid exposure to steam, rain, snow, temperature extremes;
• do not expose eyelashes to any mechanical stress: friction, putting on clothes over the head, etc.
