My Three Step Process for Achieving Glam Lashes


Hello everyone! Today's post is all about my favorite eyelash products and my easy three step method for glam looking lashes that take no time. 

*For comparison purposes, here is a photo of my bare, natural lashes.*


The first step in this process is to apply one-two coats of the L'oreal Voluminous False Fiber lashes mascara. I have to admit, this is by far the best mascara that I have ever tried. It works great alone and looks even better layered as a base underneath other mascaras, as you will see below. I love this mascara because it contains tiny fibers that latch onto your lashes, making them sky high (and no flaking or clumping). While many fiber mascaras are making their way out on the market right now, this one is different because it contains the fibers already mixed into the product instead of other fiber mascaras that require you to layer primers and loose fibers that can get into your eyes. I use the regular, non-waterproof in "Blackest Black".

The second step to my lash process is to apply one light coat of Jordana Best Lash Extreme Volume mascara. This product is also a fine mascara alone, however I prefer to layer it on top of the L'oreal one to add more darkness and volume. Before applying a light coat of this mascara over the previous mascara, be sure to wipe excess mascara from the brush to prevent major clumping. Run the brush over your lashes once to add some va va voom. It is also super inexpensive at Walgreens!

                                  Purchase the lashes                                   Purchase the adhesive                           
The last and final step is to add some individual lashes to outer ends of your lash line for a glam, false lash effect. While I typically do the first two steps on a daily basis, this last step is only done when I am going all out with my look. My favorite lashes to use are the i ENVY by Kiss knot free ultra black medium lashes. The medium length and dark color blend seamlessly with your own lashes, which means no having to go back in and tirelessly work to blend your lashes together. My favorite glue to use is the Ardell Lashtite glue in the dark adhesive. Dark adhesive is my favorite because it dries black, which helps it to blend even more with your own, real lashes.  

Use tweezers or fingers to dip tip of individual lash in adhesive and then place the individual lash(es) on the far outer corner of the lash line to complete the look. In these photos I did two individual lashes on each eye. I placed the first lash on the very end of my lash line and then followed up with a second individual lash next to it.

And here is the finished product using two individual lashes, topped off with my everyday eye shadow combo. 

Let me know if you give it a try!
