Asian Makeup Tips - Make Your Eyelashes Longer in 8 Steps (Beauty Blog Post)

For those of you who don't have time to apply false eyelashes, you can make your eyelashes longer with mascara in eight simple steps.

This method saves time, as well as money you'd spend on falsies.

 

Make Your Eyelashes Longer:

Step 1 - Curl

Any lash curler would do, but I prefer Shu Uemura lash curler because of its quality. I've had mine for years, and it still does a wonderful job.

I curl lashes first, because when lashes are curved upward, they are easier to apply mascara with.

Step 2 - Extend

A good way to make your eyelashes longer is to extend lash tips.

Tilt mascara brush upward. With short, brisk strokes, brush mascara onto each lash tip.

Using:

 

Step 3 - Volumize

Hold brush sideways, follow the natural curve of your eyelashes, and apply in slow strokes.

Step 4 - Separate

Hold brush sideways again. In a zig-zag pattern, gently apply mascara from lash line to tip.

Step 5 - Wait

Wait at least five minutes for mascara to dry.

Step 6 - Curl (again)

Why repeat this step? Because you have just added several coats of mascara, and all the formula might have weighed lashes down, offsetting original effort.

Step 7 - Groom

Sometimes curling lashes that already has mascara mushes drying formula. It's messy. Clean it up by brushing with mascara wand. You don't need any more formula; just a few long strokes completes the job.

Step 8 - Forget not

Lastly, don't forget lower lashes.

If you have short, stubby Asian lashes like mine, tilt mascara wand upward again, and brush on formula from left to right.
