Lashes can elevate your entire makeup look — but small mistakes can make a big difference. Whether you're applying strip lashes at home or caring for extensions, here are key things to avoid if you want your lashes to last and look flawless.
🚫 Common Lash Mistakes:
-
Not Trimming Strip Lashes
Always trim from the outer edge to fit your eye. Oversized lashes can look messy and feel uncomfortable. -
Using Too Much Lash Glue
Less is more! Apply a thin, even layer and wait 30 seconds for it to get tacky. -
Skipping Mascara on Natural Lashes
Blend your natural and false lashes with a light coat of mascara for a seamless finish. -
Poor Lash Care
Never sleep in strip lashes. Store them in a clean case and remove glue after use. -
Not Cleaning Lash Extensions
Use a lash-safe cleanser to avoid buildup and irritation.
