Amazing lashes never go out of style. It’s a classic look that stands the test of time and helps frame one of the most important features on a woman, her eyes! The eyes tell a lot about us so it’s important that we let them stand apart. Which is why we’re always encouraging our clients to invest in learning how to maximize their amazing lashes. Once you know how to do it, you will always stand out in the crowd!
No matter if you have subtle makeup or a bold dramatic look, full lashes compliment everything. Here are step by step instructions on how to maximize your look!
First: Use an eyelash curler as close to the lash line as possible. Snugging it up to your top lash line, gently pump 3 to 5 times. You will want to get a subtle and natural curl to open the eyes.
Second: Once the lashes are curled, start with a lash primer, or many clients prefer a lash thickener, which we tend to use more here at Faces. Always start at the base of your lashes use a zig-zag motion working your way up to the tips of the lashes. This is an important step to get the fullness in the lashes.
Third: Immediately following the primer, apply your mascara. It’s best to use the same motion applying two coats. We never recommend only one coat, two coats will give you the dimension you want in your lashes.
Extra Tips!
One tip is that you never want your coats of product to dry in-between steps because that may cause your lashes to start spreading, also known as the spider legs look. No one wants that!
One more trick is that if you really want to pump up your lashes, you can use your lash curler to very gently (and we stress VERY gently) pump up the lashes. Make sure you pump using the curler and not just give them one crimp because that can actually defeat the purpose by crimping your lashes and making them look shorter than they actually are.
It might be best to schedule a session with us at Faces to master this look. There are little tricks that we can help you achieve. We also offer a 30-minute session dedicated to you to ask any and all questions you have! We love seeing our clients with full beautiful lashes to frame those gorgeous eyes.
