Here are a couple of tips:-Measure your eye and cut the strip down if it’s too long for your eye (usually just a few centimeters on each strip will do the trick!).
-Remember to stabilize your elbow to keep your hand from shaking.
-Look down but don’t close your eyes when applying.
-Let the glue get a little tacky before setting the lashes on the lash line.
-Apply one coat of mascara before the lashes and one coat after to marry them together.
Good luck! xo. AnnaRose

I love fake lashes but for some reason I’m too afraid to use them….don’t you rip off your own lashes when removing them!

i am so terrible at this!
Yayyy, i need this!
Question: how do you recommend we care for them? washing, keeping, etc…
I would love a demo on how to remove them too. Great stuff guys! 🙂
The glue is generally pretty weak, I’ve never lost an eyelash!
I tried them only once and I had a hard time not rubbing them off because it felt so strange but I admired the effect every time I passed by a mirror…. So worth it. Also I guess you meant to say cut off a few millimeters, no?
This was super helpful! I always just assume that I’ll never get them on right. I’ll have to give it a try now ;).

Do they come off easily? I had a terrible time with lash glue once – pulled out some lashes and seriously irritated my eyes!
Nice tips, we need more AnnaRose!
Falsies look cool in pictures.
I have a question,… What eyeliner and mascara is anna using?…thanks
Good video, but i am scared of pulling out my real lashes while removing them…

I only ever wore fake lashes for my dance competitions and I have to admit I was pretty bad at it (putting on the lashes that is). This tutorial makes me want to give it another shot, maybe for outings or something. Thanks!
