Glitter Lashes!

Blue hair and silver eye lashes
There is nothing like a pair of glittering false lashes
to complete a funky night on the town look or a fun Halloween costume. 

They may look tricky to apply but I will give you a few tricks to get them looking fabulous along with some Amazon Affiliate links to help you find the best products!

How to apply Glitter Lashes

Prime
Add eye shadow primer to your eye lid in preparation for your glittery eye shadow which you will apply after the lashes. My all time fav is Urban Decay Primer Potion.

Liner
Start by applying black pencil liner to your upper lash line to 
help conceal the false lash band. One of my favorite pencils is the Maneater Self Sharpening Eye Liner Pencil.

Get the liner in between your natural lashes for a nice solid line to conceal the skin at the base of the lashes.

 Curl & Mascara
Curl your lashes and apply a light coat of black waterproof mascara. Let it dry. Too Faced Better than Sex Waterproof Mascara is the best!!!

Curled lashes make an easy shelf, if you will, to plop the false lashes on top of. 

Waterproof mascara helps the lashes maintain their curl. 

Fit the Strip
Lay the lash strip on top of your lashes to check that the length of the band fits your eye. Trim the lash strip from it's outer edge if it is too long.

 Apply the Lashes  
Apply a thin layer of lash glue to the lash strip and let it become tacky for about 2-3  minutes.  Apply the lash strip to the skin close to your upper lashes, press it gently in place, and hold it for a few seconds to set. 

 Let the glue dry.  A milky white glue will turn clear.  A black glue will stay black.


Add Glitter Shadow
Add a little glitter shadow. The best way to apply powdery glitter eye shadow is with your finger. 

Dip your finger in the shadow pot then press the shadow onto your eyelid. This helps to minimize the glitter fall out onto your upper cheek area.


Applying the glittery eye shadow after the lashes are applied conceals the false lash band with a glittery layer.

Don't waste your with those self adhesive lashes. They just not sticky enough to stay in place.  

Most lash adhesives contain latex.  Read the labels and look for non latex glue if you are allergic to latex.

Have fun wearing your lashes. They always make you feel beautiful and sexy!
Let's get Glitzy!
       Have a Beautiful Day!

White Bumps Under Eyes: Milia

Have you noticed that you have little white looking bumps under your eyes? Some people call it chicken skin because the bumps look like plucked chicken skin. 🐔 Most likely those little white bumps are milia. They can feel hard or pearly. These bumps are not acne. Milia can occur when dead skin cells become trapped beneath the outer layer of skin. Keratin becomes trapped and builds up. A small benign cyst can form which is the milia. It's a cyst!?! Don't let that word scare you. They are harmless, but unwanted bumps.  They can occur on any area of the skin that tends to be on the dry side. They cannot be squeezed out like a blackhead or pimple because they have no opening. A layer of skin covers them. A hole must be created in them using a needle, then they can be extracted out. Read more about blackhead, whiteheads and blind pimples This is a common problem for the under-eye area. It is a dry, delicate area of the skin. I see it a lot on my clients. Heavy products...
