Beauty Tip Tuesday: All About Lashes!

Written by Ashley Stone | May 10, 2016 9:58:11 PM

When it comes to lashes, the fuller the better. False lashes have always been around, but the quality and application of them have evolved tremendously over the years. New products allow us to extend and super size our existing lashes to new lengths with conditioning and priming potions. Whether you want to accentuate what you already have or go sky-high with falsies, our make up experts gave us the dish on their lashes prepping, volumizing, and beautifying techniques!

 

The Natural:

Creating a smooth surface for your mascara is crucial to amplifying what you are naturally working with. Our artists swear by Dior Lash Plumping Serum to prep the lash before application. Never underestimate the power of the proper lash serum. Conditioning your lashes is like conditioning your hair. Our artists recommend applying before bed to nourish your lashes and right before applying your mascara to prime and prep.

 

The Faux:

False lashes are a quick, bold way to amplify your lashes to the next level. Available in the traditional strip and the more camouflaged individual sets, the possibilities for volume and fullness are as simple as a little adhesive and a steady hand. Our Beauty Entourage make up experts love adding lashes to a natural look for subtle addition or to a glam look for those big, bold eyes. 

 

The Extended:

Lash extensions are one of the newest trends to create length on a more permanent basis. Individually applied, these "extensions" can be layered for thickness or applied at the ends for that long, dramatic look. Available in silk, mink, or synthetic varieties, there is a product for any look and they typically last 8-10 weeks, falling out naturally with your own lashes.
