Re: ok ladies i need your best tips for eyes now!
Put your lashes on after all your eye makeup, then follow with a couple coats of mascara. Do a search on specktra.net, you will find tons of tips for applying lashes. I also gave some pretty good tips on applying them in my tutorial. I think those colors go together, do the light one on the lid and the darker one on the outer corner and crease. I would use a light shimmery color on your browbone. You could also get some black and pink shadows and do black in the crease, pink on the lid.

^^ why do you put on mascara before lashes? I like to do it after to kind of blend my natural lashes in with the falsies. I'm curious.
Re: ok ladies i need your best tips for eyes now!
I do one coat beforehand to make them a little more substantial for the lashes to rest on. Then I follow with several coats after applying the lashes. So I do it before and after.
Re: ok ladies i need your best tips for eyes now!
I have always applied a coat before my false lashes as well and always thought I was wierd, nice to know someone else does it to.
I find they always look better that way ;D

I read that if you apply mascara to the falsies, it shortens the life of them.
Re: ok ladies i need your best tips for eyes now!
I usually get about 3-4 uses out of my falsies.
Re: ok ladies i need your best tips for eyes now!
k, here's another question.
you know how you line all around your eyes...how the hell do you keep from getting little black eye boogers with the liner in the inside corner!?! or do you just have to pay attention and keep it all cleaned lolol
Re: ok ladies i need your best tips for eyes now!
ugh...i give up! i played around last night...when i was done...well, lets just say it looked like my 3 yr old put it on! lolol
Re: ok ladies i need your best tips for eyes now!
LR gave the fantastic tip to use a q-tip to dry off the inner ridge before applying eyeiner and I've found that to help immensely.
Falsies are short-lived no matter what. I use eye makeup remover to loosen them before I take them off so that removes much of the mascara anyway.

This only happens to me with pencil. Try a liquid or gel liner and use the q tip trick.
