Beauty Tips for Fuller, Thicker Eyelashes

Nothing adds quite as much glamour to your eyes as thick, lush, beautiful eyelashes. Long and lush eyelashes are so popular nowadays that many salons and spas are actually offering eyelash extensions.

If you get eyelash extensions synthetic hairs are actually bonded to your own eyelashes which helps to lengthen them for about a month. However eyelash extensions are very expensive and they take a long time to apply, making them too big of a hassle for most people. The good news is that you can get beautiful long eyelashes without having to resort to getting eyelash extensions. Here are some tips on how to glam up and bring out your eyelashes.

When it comes to mascara the key to a beautiful application lies entirely in the brush. You should look for a brush that has both long and short bristles which will apply a thicker layer of mascara while at the same time declumping and defining your lashes. Another good option for a mascara brush it is to choose a brush and comb combo which will have the same effect.

Black mascara will give the most dramatic impact when applied to your eyelashes. Apply the mascara from the base of your lashes to the tips, wiggling the brush gently as you go up the lashes. Wiggling the brush will help to prevent clumping. Apply several layers of mascara to your upper eyelashes to really accentuate them, focusing especially on the outside edges of your lash line. To add even more drama try applying a layer of mascara to the tops of your upper eyelashes as well.

False eyelashes are a great way to create sexy eyes for a night out on the town. Today’s false eyelashes are designed to be much more natural looking than older styles of false eyelashes. When buying false eyelashes choose lashes that come in a strip rather than buying individual lashes. Unless you are very skilled, applying individual lashes will be too difficult to get a natural look.

To apply false eyelashes you will want to first trim them to fit the length of your eyelid. Then use a Q-tip to dab a small amount of eyelash adhesive onto the back of the lash. Wait for the glue to get a tacky feel and then apply it your upper eyelid by pressing it into your lash line gently. To help the false eyelashes to look more natural and blend with your other makeup, apply a line of eyeliner over the base of the false eyelashes once they have been placed on your eye.

Accentuating your eyelashes will help your eyes to look bigger, brighter and sexier. Dramatic eyelashes are great way to add glamour to your makeup look without going over the top.
