Magnetic eyelashes are a game changer in the realm of beauty. If you’re weary of using sticky lash adhesive or battling with traditional falsies, magnetic lashes could be your new best friend. They are simple to use, reusable, and provide a pop of colour to your eyes with less effort. This guide will show you exactly how to apply magnetic eyelashes like a pro.
What are Magnetic Eyelashes?
Magnetic eyelashes are fake lashes that adhere to your natural lash line using microscopic magnets. Unlike regular falsies that use on adhesives, magnetic lashes work with either.
- Magnetic Eyeliner – An eyeliner with iron oxides that attract and hold the lashes in place.
- Double Magnetic Lashes are two lash strips that use magnets to sandwich your natural lashes in between.
- Both versions eliminate the need for glue and are more convenient and mess-free.
Benefits of Magnetic Eyelashes
- Glue-free application means no more sticky fingers or untidy eyelashes.
- Many magnetic lashes can be worn up to 30 times with proper care.
- Comfortable – Lightweight and gentle on the natural lashes.
- Beginner-friendly – Makes it easier for people who have never worn falsies before.
What You Will Need:
- A set of magnetic lashes
- Magnetic eyeliner (if using this type)
- Tweezers or applicator tool (optional)
- Mirror and steady hand
Step-by-Step: Applying Magnetic Eyelashes
Step 1: Prepare Your Natural Eyelashes
Begin with clean, dry eyelashes. Remove any oil, makeup, or residue using micellar water or a makeup remover. Curl your natural lashes and use mascara to enhance volume and support.
Step 2: Apply Magnetic Eyeliner (If Required).
If your lashes adhere to magnetic eyeliner, shake the liner thoroughly and apply it as close to your lash line as possible. Wait 2-3 minutes for the eyeliner to thoroughly dry. A second coat may aid with magnet grip.
Step 3: Position the Magnetic Eyelashes
Once the liner has dried, gently remove the magnetic lashes from the casing. Flex them slightly to meet your eye shape.
To apply magnetic eyeliner lashes, use tweezers or your fingers to gently put the strip along your lash line. The magnets should click into position.
For sandwich-style magnetic lashes, place the top lash above your natural lashes and the bottom lash beneath them, ensuring that your real lashes are between the magnets. They should snap together.
Step 4: Adjust as needed
Use your fingers or an applicator to carefully modify the location of the lashes until they are comfortable and symmetrical.
Tips for the Best Results:
- Trim to Fit: If the lash strip is too long, trim it from the outside edge to fit your eye size.
- Use a Magnifying Mirror: It aids in exact application, particularly for beginners.
- Practice Makes Perfect: Don’t get disheartened if it takes a few attempts. It becomes easier!
- Clean After Use: Use a cotton swab and micellar water to remove makeup residue from the magnets, keeping them sticky-free and reusable.
