Popular types of false eyelashes
Just like winged eyeliner and contouring, it is also difficult to get the perfect application of false eyelashes. When picking a pair of false lashes, one needs to know which type is best suited to meet their requirements. Here are the two most popular types of false lashes:
Individual false lashes
Individual lashes are good for those who want to boost the length and fullness of one’s natural lashes in a subtle manner. These types of lashes are also ideal for those who wish to add definition to their natural lash line in certain areas. They blend in well with the natural lash line when applied correctly.
- Individual false lashes are mostly available in sets of thirty to sixty strands and come in different lengths, which is why they are considered to be the best false lashes as the look can be customized.
- Those who want to have a natural look but add some length and volume to certain areas of their natural lashes or even fill in the gaps that are present in the natural lash line should opt for these types of false lashes. They are the most versatile and are capable of converting any glamorous look into a natural one.
- One needs to carefully apply each of these false lashes with the help of a pair of tweezers specifically designed for the purpose. In order to boost the all-around fullness, one can apply individual false lashes in the middle of the natural lashes. Alternatively, they can apply them in areas where the growth of the natural lashes is sparse, so as to fill in the gaps. One can add these false lashes to the outer ends of the natural lashes to get a wide-eyed effect.
Cluster false lashes
Cluster false lashes are also known as accents or flares. These type of lashes have a little band, which makes it easy for one to pop on the natural lash line.
- Cluster lashes do not lift at the corners, and the best part about cluster false lashes is that they can be applied in a strategic manner in order to create different types of looks.
- These lashes should be applied in a row on the natural lash line in order to get a full strip-like look. If a few cluster false lashes are added to the corners, it creates a cat-eye effect.
- If one wants to get a look similar to the application of strip false lashes with an added quotient of customization, they should opt for cluster false lashes.
- With a little adhesive, cluster false lashes can be placed on the upper line of the natural lashes, as desired. Once the lash has been placed, mascara can be applied to the root so that the false and natural lashes appear to be the same, giving a seamless and natural look.
