Have you ever looked at magazine photos of celebrities and wondered how their eyelashes can look so astonishing? You’re not alone! Today’s technology offers many ways to enhance or add to your natural lashes. Whether you have thin, short, or faint lashes, or just want to look more awake, here are some options to consider.
a. False Eyelashes
Wearing false eyelashes can be tricky at first, but once you get the hang of it, they’re an instant eye-opener! To ensure proper application, I recommend going to a makeup artist for your first application. If you’re applying them at home, make sure the glue you use isn’t white but dries close to the color of the lashes. Apply a thin coat to the rim, let it dry, and press down gently with the end of a brush or Q-tip. There are hundreds of lash styles available, so start simple and work your way up to more dramatic looks!
b. Eyelash Extensions
Eyelash extensions, when applied by a trained professional, can last 3-4 weeks and are waterproof! These small synthetic lashes are applied to your natural lash hair and look and feel very natural. If you’re interested, our McLean, VA office now offers eyelash extensions! Call us at 703-356-5111 for a consultation.
c. Fiber-Infused Mascara
Fiber-infused mascaras are a great way to make your lashes look fuller and longer. These mascaras work by attaching small fibers to each individual lash, which helps physically lengthen them. A dark mascara is then applied to color the fibers. While it can be a bit tricky to remove, using an oil-based eye makeup remover can make it a clean sweep.
d. Mascara and Lash Primer Combination
Many people underestimate the power of a good lash primer. MAKEUP FOREVER LASH FIBERS PRIMER has proven itself to be one of the best in the cosmetics world. When paired with a great mascara like L’Oréal Voluminous Mascara, it will thicken and lengthen your lashes. This primer can be used with any of your favorite mascara brands to enhance your natural lashes.
e. Latisse: A Prescription Solution for Thinner Lashes
If cosmetic products aren’t giving you the results you desire, Latisse may be the solution for you. This prescription eyelash solution helps grow your existing eyelashes. If you have sparse, thin, or short lashes, Latisse can give you the boost you need. However, your physician can only prescribe Latisse after an evaluation to determine if it’s right for you.
