Lashes Galore

A huge shout out to MAC cosmetics for their support of "Cougar Hunting". Their product donations help keep our cats looking sleek. Especially when it comes to lashes. False lashes translate beautifully onto film, opening the eye and creating a slightly more dramatic, glamorous look. We have been using them on all our starring ladies. Including this local Snow Cougar Star Varga.

If false lashes have intimidated you don't let them any longer. They are great for daily use or a big night out on the town. Easy to apply and and long wearing; false lashes can take your look from natural to straight up Glam. For a more natural lash effect try the individual lashes from MAC or the #7 strip lashes. For a more dramatic effect go for the #21 or #34 strip lashes.

Tips for application:

In addition to the lashes, make certain you also have DUO adhesive for the application process. This particular surgical glue dries clear and is favorable to even the most sensitive skin. 

False lash application is easiest once all of your other make-up has been applied.

For individual lashes, pluck the lash out of the container with tweezers, dip the dotted end in the Duo adhesive being careful not to use too much glue. Apply from the outside of the eye inward until the desired effect has been created.

For strip lashes the application is a tad bit different.  Take the lash out of the container and hold it up against your eye with the shortest lashes toward the inside. Measure and trim any lash that is over extending past the outside of the eye.  With a q-tip gently apply Duo adhesive to the strip of the lash being careful not to use to much glue. Allow the glue to dry on the strip for about 15 seconds before applying to the lash line.  This will ensure the lash doesn't slip around while you are placing it. Once adhered apply MAC Fluidline eyeliner along the lash line for a finished look.  You can also trim the strip lashes into halves or quarters and use on the outer edge of the eye for a more flirty look.
