Gone are the days of kohl or black mascara, the trend is towards coloured or uncoloured false lashes. Practical and easy to apply, they densify the lashes and enhance the look.

What’s more, false eyelashes enlarge the eyes while remedying drooping eyelids. Rather round eyes are transformed into almond-shaped eyes in no time. Find out how to keep your false eyelashes for longer.

Remove your false lashes gently

First of all, it is important to differentiate between false lashes and extensions. The rendering is similar, however, the first ones are worn for short periods while the extensions remain in place for several days, weeks, even months. False eyelashes must be handled and maintained with care. At the end of the day, remember to systematically remove your false lashes. Start by applying a light coat of coconut or sweet almond oil to remove the glue. At the same time, pour warm water over your eyelids to loosen the false lashes.

If this option seems a little tricky, you can find a wide range of magnetic false eyelashes online that attach without glue and last for a long time. It’s a very simple way to give your eyes maximum volume. They are attached with 2 or 3 magnets for a very natural effect. Magnetic eyelashes are also available with or without liner. Choose those that do not contain any animal additives.

Use suitable products for the maintenance of false eyelashes

As a rule, false eyelashes with magnets require very little maintenance. They fit perfectly into your beauty routine. Once you have removed them, all you have to do is clean off any remaining make-up. Use a make-up remover, preferably an oil-free one. Then leave them to dry between two sheets of clean tissue.

Unlike traditional eyelash extensions or false eyelashes, the magnetic versions can be reused up to 30 times without getting damaged. They can be attached and removed without the assistance of a professional. Best of all, these beauty accessories are suitable for sensitive eyes. Because there is no glue, there is less risk of developing allergic reactions. The most difficult thing is to choose from the many effects available: natural lashes, Russian volume, doe eye, perfect eye, extreme Russian volume… These false lashes blend in perfectly with natural lashes.

Opt for a non-waterproof mascara

If you prefer to apply mascara to your false lashes, it is best to choose a non-waterproof product. Even if waterproof mascaras are waterproof, they are very difficult to remove. You’ll need to use milks, make-up remover oils or biphasic solutions to remove them.

In any case, if you want to apply mascara to your false lashes, apply it only on the lengths or make up only the lower lashes for a very nice result. Another tip is to mix black false lashes with coloured false lashes. To avoid a misstep, check that the size of the fringe of the false lash matches the width of your eyelid. Don’t hesitate to cut off the ends that are sticking out or that may be in the way.
