Flirty Friday - Faux Lashes

                                 Hey Miss Fabulous Divas,


Today I will be showing you how to apply Faux Lashes!

Here is a list of all the equipment you will need;

Eyelashes
Eye lash Glue
Mirror
Tweeters
Eyelash curler (Optional)
Eye Shadow
Eyeliner

I would like to start by sharing with you where I buy my lashes from. I know that eyelashes can be expensive if like me, you where them everyday.
I get my lashes from Wilkinson, which is only £1 each Ladies. They come in a variety of styles, so if you’re looking for a dramatic look they have very voluminous lashes, or if want a more natural look they can be found in Wilkinson too.
Before I use to find it so hard to apply lashes, but now they take me seconds to put on! So if at first you struggle to apply lashes like I did. Keep on practising! You will eventually get it!

First of all apply your eye shadow and eyeliner.

Take of one lash from the packet using tweeters, and be sure to be very careful as you want the lash to keep its natural curve as the will be easier to apply onto your eyelid.

Have your glue at the ready, turn your lash around holding them with your tweeters  and apply the glue. I have used black glue from Revlon. This is great as I can go over it with my black eyeliner for a seamless look. Clear glue is also great too! Especially if you do not want to use eye liner.

Be careful not to use too much as some glues can be very strong. You want to make sure that when it comes to removing your glue, although you will use an eyelash remover. You do not want to remover your natural eyelashes.

Once the glue has been applied, with or without tweeter and a clear mirror steadily apply the lash. Be cure to curve the lash with your eyelid so that the lashes look seamless.  

Wait a few seconds to a few minutes for the glue to dye. Depending on what it says on the packaging.

Tip: This is your window to adjust the lashes to your desired preference, as once they are dried you will not be able to alter them.

Using a black eyeliner go over your lash line and re apply your eye shadow, if needed.

Finally Curl, curl curl....using your fabulous eye lash curlers.

 ‘How to Curl Your Hair Fabulous.  

Let me know what you think & I always love to receive comments & pictures from my Miss Fabulous Divas  x

Start by taking a few strands of your hair and comb through.

Use a small amount of hair serum, I have used Mizani, moisturise throughout the strand of hair.

Followed by a few drops of hair warp mousse, I have used Palmers Olive Oil.

Then use your preferred size of bendy curling rods to curl your hair. I have used a long thin rod.

Tip: Start from the bottom & roll up to the top.

Repeat: All over the hair, leaving in for 30 – 45 minutes.

And there you have it Curl your Hair Fabulous x
