The benefits of wearing false eyelashes
Many people spend a fortune on mascara, get sucked in by TV commercials that suggest a few swipes of a mascara wand and suddenly you’ll have longer lashes with added volume. Now read the fine print at the bottom of the ad that suggests false lash inserts are used along with it. Yes, it’s true, false eyelashes are often used to promote exciting new eye products that we all spend our hard-earned money on, but great false eyelashes are what you really should start shopping for.
False eyelashes have been around for a long time, but in recent years they have become increasingly popular for people going out at night or for a special occasion. Some people even wear them daily because they feel naked without them. False eyelashes help open up your eyes and make you look less tired. False lashes don’t require coats of mascara and, if applied correctly, will last all night.
There are many different styles of false lashes, from subtle to extravagant, and they come in strips or as individual lash inserts. Many leading stores now have DIY false eyelashes that are great for a night out with the girls. They are usually priced around £5-£8 and come with a handy tube of glue to apply to your eyelid.
However, you have to learn how to put them on, which can be very tricky at first and you may end up with more glue on your fingers than in your eye; resulting in a terrible result in the eyebrow of the third eye! If you’re not the best at applying false eyelashes, as they can be tricky, especially if you have large hands, or want a longer-lasting result, many good salons will do it for you!
I love the fact that many salons offer false lash application and the good news is that it is extremely affordable. You can get lashes that last a few weeks when cared for and usually cost from £15. The lashes are carefully applied by a beautician and are held perfectly in place with glue. You can order extensions or a girdle according to your preference. You can also get more permanent lashes that can stay on for a year if taken care of, which is great for people who want perfect lashes every day, as it adds up to £5 a pack!
False lashes don’t have to be dramatic, an esthetician can trim them to your preference so you get just what you want. Visiting a beautician is a great way to feel pampered and if you take good care of yours they will last you a relatively long time. Avoid any oil-based products near your lashes to ensure they stay on and when you’re ready to remove them it doesn’t hurt but I guarantee you’ll be hooked because they look fantastic!
