Quick False Eyelash question!

I'm a falsie virgin and have been practising like mad but can't seem to get the buggers right!Are you meant to stick them to the skin part of your lashline or the actual eyelash hair part if the lashline? Also what's the best glue to use that has lasting power? Thanks !

Heres how
Do your eye make inc massie

Run very thin line of glue along false eyelsh line

Waft for a few seconds to make it tacky

Sort of drop it onto your lash line from above rather than coming 'at' it stright on.

Hold in place with tweezers at either end, or your fingers if its easier, pressing it along as close as you can to your lash line

ditto what Cyb said. buy Duo lash glue (MAC sells it, or EBay), is better than those crappy little freebie tubes of glue. Also watch Lisa Eldridge or Pixiwoo video tutorials and practice on cheapy lashes (from Pound shop or similar)

I actually find individual knot free ones easier now (these stick to lashes unlike strip lashes). a lot more forgiving IMO and you can vary look easily (I sometimes just add to corners when wearing flicky liquid liner, or spread more evenly for fullness when doing smoky eye). Again Lisa Eldridge video fab for guidance.

Thankyou ladies will have a look at the tutorials mentioned and order some duo - hopefully get the hang of it!
