False eyelashes

How do you put these on ladies, when you've got 50 year old skin eye sag?

I spent over 30 mins today getting them on, and they looked crap.

What do you do?

I’ve no idea either!

fo they go on top of existing lashes or under?

I’ve preferred s magnifying mirror. I want to have lashes!!

Get the Tatti Lashes kit that go under your natural lashes. They last a week, easy to put on with a bit of practice and don’t look so shit on a bit of a saggy eyelid.

Or depending on your budget maybe you could have individual lashes applied by a qualified lash tech which would look more natural and softer especially for ageing skin…

Have you considered having LVL done instead? A more natural look

I'm 46 and wear lashes quite often for going out.

I use the Eyelure ones that sit on top of your natural lashes. I've tried under ones but I'm not a fan.

I put on eyeliner and using tweezers, stick the centre of the false lashes to to the centre of my natural lash line - the eyeliner helps disguise the band. I give a light coat of mascara to blend the false and real lashes.

I keep them light and natural - my faves are Eyelure 3/4 length 007's but for absolute beginners try 003 first. Very light & easy to apply.
