"For those of you in on my December Beauty Resolution to rock fake lashes, I thought I&amp;#x27;d share a few bits of wisdom I&amp;#x27;ve learned through trial and error up through this point.Along with Petra&amp;#x27;s tips, here are a few things you need to know. Lesson 1) You really should trim them to the right length. I&amp;#x27;ve found the width of my eye matches best with a set of falses when I snip off the outer four lashes or so. This has saved me a lot of adjusting with too-long strands. To measure, just hold the strand up against your eye before you apply the glue&amp;amp;#8212;the inner lashes should start where yours get thicker above the tear duct. Lesson 2) You&amp;#x27;ve got to find the right amount of glue, which from what I can tell is enough so you can see it clearly on the strand but not enough to look gloppy. I find thinning it out a little with a Q-Tip helps. Lesson 3) Keep some liquid liner onhand. You can use it fill in any areas where you can tiny slivers of skin between your real lashes and your fake ones. Totally key. OK, that&amp;#x27;s it for now. Any of the rest of you been experimenting yet? Discovered any tips you want to share? Spill all below.
