No idea about them. Mascara on top or not?

I wear false eyelashes everyday, i love them, and wouldnt ever be without them!

Most people recommend that you curl your eyelashes first and put mascara on then glue your eyelashes on, however i dont do this, i stick on my falsies and curl them and my normal lashes together, and that does the job, for me.

Search you tube for tutorials, if your a bit stuck.

Think it depends ... Some I've used really don't need mascara as well as they already look perfect. Love falsiesSmile

I like to curl my eyelashes and then stick them on and then just 2 coats of mascara so they blend together.

Not sure if the packaging says it, but leave them for about 30 seconds with the glue on before you put them on so the glue isn't runny. This has caused many a stuck/together eye when I was younger Blush

I have fair lashes so I put mascara on first, then lashes (otherwise it's easy to pull the lashes off with the mascara wand).

The key to a quick and easy lash application is to allow enough time for the glue to go tacky before you try to stick them on. The glue should be very almost dry before you attempt to stick the lashes on, otherwise they will slide down your face and the glue will ruin your eyeshadow.

I only attempted falsies once and it was a nightmare.

I did my eyeshadow first (was that right?) but the black glue went everywhere because I couldn't work out how to stick them on. I couldn't stop my hands shaking! Are you supposed to start at one end or just slap them on? Mascara afterwards?

Tips would be welcome, or maybe I just need to practice.
