Here at Fake Eyelashes we are not all about the sale and getting peoples money, we want Fakeeyelashes.co.uk to be the number 1 resource for anything to do with eyelashes, eyelash extensions and eye make up in general.

Whilst browsing the internet this evening I came across some really great videos on Youtube for eye make up tips by a professional make up artists. I have gone through and picked out the best tutorials which I think will help you the most and which I think are provide the most information for both beginners and professionals.

I found some great overall eye makeup tips here at the dabblerDotca Youtube Channel which are worth watching if you are interested in make up tutorials as they are mostly performed by a guy called Beau Nelson whom owns a famous brand of cosmetics called Beaute Cosmetics and he is really good, but since this site is only to do with eyelashes and the eyes we will stick to related subjects.

Eye make up tip #2: Rhianna and Angelina Jolie eyes

Eye make up tip #3: Tightlining

Eye make up tip #4: Liquid eyeliner

Eye make up tip #5: How to draw and fill in eyebrows

So there you have it the some great eye make up tips and our first page which is not totally dedicated to false eyelashes or eyelash extensions and other eyelash treatments but it in keeping with the theme of the site and also offering some really great information and videos which I think allot of people will find useful.

We will be doing allot more of these blog posts containing video tutorials and information about topics which can help people that maybe cannot afford semi permanent eyelash extensions and dont like having big false eyelash extension attached to their eyes but just want some great advice on everyday eye make up looks.

Eyelash Extensions? How to Make Your Eyelashes Look Longer Without Fake Extensions

If you’ve always wanted glamorous eyelashes but have no interest in wearing eyelash extensions, you’ll be pleased to learn that there are several simple things you can do to have those long luxurious lashes you’ve always dreamt of having.

Caring for Your Eyelashes

Having long, full eyelashes starts with the proper care of those tiny, delicate hairs that help to protect the eyes. First, be sure to thoroughly clean the face, including the eye area before going to bed each night. Use a cleanser that’s intended for use on the eyes, or even simple baby oil, provided you aren’t wearing eyelash extensions, along with a soft pad or a few cotton balls and gently clean the eyes until no makeup remains.

Curling Your Eyelashes

Curling the eyelashes just doesn’t make the lashes seem longer, but it also helps to make the eyes appear larger and brighter. Using a basic eyelash curler on clean lashes, clamp the curler down firmly and close to the base of the eyelashes for about five seconds before releasing gently. While you can spend extra money on an eyelash curler that’s heated in order to set the curl more, you can achieve the same effect simply by using your hair dryer, pointing it toward the clamp part of the curler for a few seconds, taking care not to overheat and run the risk of breaking or burning the lashes.

Using Primer

Primer just isn’t for the walls before you use paint as another type of primer is also used on the eyelashes before applying makeup to make them seem both longer and thicker. Eyelash primer is usually white in color and comes either as a separate product, or along with mascara. Less is more when using primer so be sure to gently wipe the wand on a clean tissue before applying to the lashes. When using primer, it’s important to start at the base of the lashes, as close to the lid as possible, and then making a zigzag motion upward toward the ends of the lashes for the best effect. Don’t forget to make sure the tips of the eyelashes are amply coated in primer as well, allowing it to fully dry before applying the rest of your makeup.

Applying Eye Makeup

Mascara isn’t the only type of eye makeup that helps the lashes to appear longer. Using the right color eyeliner that’s applied properly, which is on the outer rim of the eyelid, never the inner part that touches the eye, will also help to make the eyelashes seem longer and fuller. Also, use eyeliner sparingly and keep the line thin and as close to the base of the lashes as possible to bring them together, making them appear thicker.

Much like when using primer, gently wipe the mascara wand before applying to the lashes to avoid clumping and having flecks of makeup fall down onto the cheeks. Apply two coats of your favorite mascara, allowing the first coat to fully dry before putting on the second, and then finish the look with an eyelash comb. Using the little comb helps to separate the lashes, removes clumps and excess bits of makeup, and makes the eyelashes seem even more defined.

By following these few simple tips, you can enjoy long, luxurious eyelashes without ever needing to deal with the hassles, not to mention the expense, of wearing fake eyelash extensions.
