EYEBROWS/LASHES

EYEBROWS-pencil/shadow first half of the brow underneath up to mid-point, second half fill on the top, then blend together , this creates the illusion that the brow is thicker and makes it look more natural. with a cotton bud, smudge around the brow to get rid of any harsh lines, use translucent powder  and puff press upward to blend into the face more. ensure you start eyebrows in line with finger next to nose to inner eye, the arch is just past the pupil and ends no further than a finger resting from nose to outer eye corner.

EYELASHES-curl lashes in three areas of lash, root, mid and end to create long perfect curl before applying to allow lashes to be more natural  open and is easier to apply mascara. Mascara is easier to use when a little older and dryer as there is more control. Start on the outside of the eye zigzagging the mascara wand both on top and underneath the lash to fully coat the lashes, as you move in start to use the point of the wand to get into the inner eye lashes. Applying mascara to the top lashes only creates a cat eye effect, bottom only creates a dolly effect and both lashes creates the eye to look rounder.

FALSE LASHES-individual lashes make a more natural finish, although they take time and can be fiddly applying each one carefully and symmetrically to opposite eye. On a full set, cut to appropriate size feather the ends with scissors to get rid of blunt edge to be more natural, apply a thin line of eyeliner on lid as a base (and afterwards too to finish to hid gap between lash line and fake lash) apply glue to the lashes, wait for glue to go tacky and not be freshly wet, apply a thin coat of mascara to real lashes and then with a FLAT ended tweezer and small brush to press down apply lash, middle fist, then outer edge then inner. Finally apply a final coat of mascara if needed to blend both sets of lashes more.
