Look at Angelina Jolie’s profile, hmm; do you think those luscious lashes are real? Now it’s our turn. Read on to learn how to apply them and have fun with them too!

1. Prep!
First, prep your lashes by curling them. You might want to use Japonesque ergo grip eyelash curler ($13.49, ulta.com).
Once that’s done, apply one layer of mascara. POP Lash Kapow Mascara ($18.50, popbeauty.co.uk), freezes lashes into place, blacking them out and keeping them curled all day!
Always apply black eye liner to the inner rims of the lashes, this intensifies the effect of the falsies, POP’s In Liner ($16, popbeauty.co.uk) has been designed specifically for this purpose – comfortable to apply and no smudging, just the way we like it.

I’ve always wanted to try false eyelashes but had no clue how to do it. This is seriously helpful!
Me want!
I’m a little wary of them…thanks for the tips!
What’s with the false eyelash craze lately?
I’ve tried to wear a couple times for costume parties, but they just never stay on.
They drive me nutballs, but do look awesome; just not worth it for everyday – I only use them when going out
I love to wear them when I go out! They are so much fun! However, I do break a sweat putting them on. Practice, girls, practice!
i love the demi lashes….emphasis on the outer lashes & much easier to apply than an entire set. try it, will make you rethink false lashes are difficult.
I found several helpful how-to’s on YouTube on how to apply lashes.
@NYCdogmommy – me too! I’ve tried them at home with no instructions before and made a mess of it. Off to try again!
LOVE lashes for a special occasion! If you are wary of trying FULL lashes, you can get “individuals” and try them out! They apply the same way, but it’s nice just to put 2 or 3 on the outside corner of your eyes… It gives a bit of a sexy “60′s cat eye” look… Thanks 4 the great LASHES tips!
