Naked Lash 421

Measure the lash. Place the strip along the natural lash line and trim a little from the outer edge if it is too long. This helps the lash sit comfortably without poking the inner corner.

Apply lash adhesive. Add a thin, even layer of lash glue along the strip, paying extra attention to both ends. Wait about 20–30 seconds for the adhesive to become slightly tacky.

Position the lash. Looking slightly downward into a mirror, place the strip as close as possible to the natural lash line. Secure the center first, then press down the inner and outer corners.

Blend the lashes. Gently pinch the natural lashes and the false lashes together using clean fingers or a lash applicator. Add a light coat of mascara if desired to help everything look seamless.

Perfect the finish. Check the corners and gently press down any areas that are lifting. Allow the adhesive to fully set before touching or adjusting the lashes further.

Professional tip: Keep the lash band as close to the natural lash line as possible. A thin, precise application of adhesive will usually look more natural and polished than using too much glue.
