1. To apply false eyelashes, start first with applying your eye makeup as usual, including eyeliner and mascara. If your natural lashes are straight, then curl them with an eyelash curler.

2. Take the lash strips out of the tray and hold them up to your own lashes as though you are going to apply them. Remember the inner edge has to be applied to the inner corner of the eye. If the false lashes are wider than your natural eye, trim the excess strip with small scissors to resize the strip.

3. Squeeze a small amount of eyelash adhesive onto a cotton swab, and swipe a thin line along the back of the lash strip.

4. Give the eyelash adhesive 30-45 seconds to allow it to set. This is the most important step because the lash strip will not hold when it’s wet. After that, place the strip along your natural lash line and hold with your fingers for a few seconds to secure them. Once in place, allow the glue to dry for a few minutes before applying mascara (if desired).
5. To remove false eyelashes: Since the glue used to apply false eyelashes is adhesive, you can gently pull the strip away from your lash line. Other methods used to remove lashes include water, eye makeup remover, or baby oil. You can saturate the lashes for 2-3 minutes, and gently pull the strip away without tugging at your own natural lashes. Place them back in the tray for reuse.

How to apply individual eyelashes

1. Apply your eye makeup as usual, including eyeliner and mascara. If your natural lashes are straight, then curl them with an eyelash curler.

2. Apply a few small drops of eyelash adhesive to a flat surface.

3. Use tweezers to grasp the lash and dip it into the small drop of adhesive. Allow it to dry for 30-45 seconds to allow it to set.

4. Starting at the outer edge of your eye, place the lash in a small gap between two of your natural lashes. Hold the lash in place for a few seconds to allow it to set. Repeat this step, while working your way inward toward your nose. For a natural look, limit yourself to 3-4 clusters. You can use up to 15 for maximum density.

5. These lashes will fall out on their own over time, so there’s no need in trying to remove them yourself. The glue that is commonly used to apply individual lashes is much stronger than the regular adhesive glue, so removal can be very painful.
