#1 Trick TO APPLYING MAGNETIC LASHES | Nikol Johnson

[@Tuxamillion]

My trick is to position the bottom on first, squeeze your eye shut to hold lash in place, then put lash on top until it clicks to bottom, then adjust if you need to. Takes one minute each eye. Seriously, And Nikol, I love you and because of you I have decided to go silver, but I have the patience of a gnat, so I had major silver and smoke highlights with dark brown undertones. Now my gray/silver will grow out without too much pain. Thank you for giving all us older gals the courage.

[@heatherlilly313]

I do this too

[@jessical8609]

Sounds like a good " hack" I'm gonna go try it. I've been trying for days and can not get them on. It's so frustrating!!

[@nikieberhardt4624]

Your idea makes so much more sense. Thanks for sharing

[@teesha123]

i figured out this method too! I grew out my greys 10 years ago, when i was 25 (yes, i had lots of grey hair really young) I only dyed my hair a handful of times in high school for "fun" i never got to the point where i was dying to cover greys. It damaged my hair and i swore of dye that's why! Dyed it black and grew out my dark brown natural hair! :) best thing ever

[@vilwarin5635]

@@teesha123 It happened to me too. I´m 31 now and my silver hairs are all over my hair. I have long brunette hair, and for a time I tried to cover the white strands with dye. But then I had 2 problems instead of 1: I had roots + white hair. Now I decided to go natural, I´d rather have nice and healthy hair than be a slave of dying and destroy my hair.

I've had mine for a few months now and have had no luck in putting them on. Now that I've watched this, I feel like I might can get them on now. You made this very easy to understand. Thank you!!

[@sammiwood4926]

I’m so glad that I found your channel. Firstly I am closer to 40 than I am 20 and I have struggled with some of the make up tutorials as my skin is no where near as pliable as it used to be and it just reacts completely different to the younger ones. And second I am allergic to lash glue and didn’t even know you can get latex free glue, so I have just bought my first set of magnetic lashes and you make it look so easy. The way you explain it is brilliant how to catch the skin so can adjust down afterwards really really helps.

[@MsGritandGlamour]

Need to try because I'm an epic failure at glued falsies!

[@NikolJohnson]

GRIT & GLAMOUR You will love them!!!!! Let me know what you think

[@blessedandbeautiful8365]

Me too girl 🤚

[@ziasfusion]

I was too! I figured out that I was allergic to the glue.

[@DarcBloom]

I have really sensitive skin and eyes, so I've been pretty dead set on not using falsies at all. These magnetic ones are the ONLY kind I would consider.

[@smallpersonshotsy8402]

GRIT & GLAMOUR TOTALLY me too, omg, I can't tell you HOW MANY TIMES I'VE ALMOST GONE BLIND because of that damn awful horrible eyelash glue, literally the most painful I have ever felt in my eyeball no matter what the brand or whatever when it comes to anything hypoallergenic or anything doesn't matter what it is like I have extremely sensitive skin, so much so, that stuff MADE SPECIFICALLY FOR sensitive skin is painful on me! I can't wear so much stuff because of it😶 I definitely suggest trying these baby's for a spin LOL

[@strangeequark]

I was wondering why no other reviews were applying them by connecting each magnet at a time, it seems to work so much better! I'm glad I know they look good applying them that way, thanks for the video. Also I love your blazer

[@alittlewheiser521]

It is helpful to put a little mascara on before you put them on so they don't slip. It is also very helpful to curl your real lashes.

[@DiamondStar2012K]

This was a great video, thanks! I just want to mention to those who wear them regularly, even if it seems like common sense, please be sure to remove them if you are having an MRI as the magnets could cause severe damage by the MRI equipment magnetically pulling the eyelashes off.

[@patriciamackhan9184]

Excellent advice 👌

[@jamiekrista]

Actually it doesn’t pull a magnet up, an MRI heats the magnet and causes burning of the patient.

[@ftorrisi1]

I lose those little pieces all the time....then have to spend a long time looking for them.

[@TheRealJedidah]

but wont making them into pieces be harder? if we are already having trouble with the whole strip , how would making it smaller and more pieces make it easier. HELP

[@ftorrisi1]

​@@TheRealJedidah No matter what anyone says, It IS harder when the pieces are smaller.....they get lost easily, dropped, stick together and its really not worth the hassle....Just so you know, there is now 'magnetic eyeliner' which ONE lash will stick to - fool proof. I ordered them and since they are brand new - I won't get them most likely till December some time......just know they're out there. I'm sure the price will eventually drop.

I am only sorry that any woman could make such shallow and ugly remarks about your beautiful hair . The generosity that you show through sharing your advice and techniques is inspiring. I only hope that these so-called "ladies" take inspiration from your manner and learn that beauty isn't just on the surface and that being ugly through behaving in a spiteful way is something that no amount of makeup can cover. We should empower eachother.

[@Sarah-yo1dd]

Great job demonstrating the application. I just got interested in these type of lashes. What are your thoughts on the ones that have the eyeliner magnet vs. the two lashes. What brands do you recommend. Thanks

[@FL-jz5hm]

Thank you, I needed the visual demo. Could not figure out how to get these to hold. I thought the top deck was for the upper lid lashes and the lower for the bottom lid where I would not want false lashes.I agree with using the longer ends on the inside (then trimming). These are really cool! If only they would come up with boob magnets for us older women that would be fantastic!

[@melissaroberts7568]

Heck to the yes!! 🤣🤣 boob magnets wud be awesome for anyone wantin a boost... NO MORE UNDER~WIRES!!! LOL😂🤣😂😅

[@brendadon9394]

I think you may have just helped me with my magnetic lashes. I have never worn false lashes because I have alway’s been nervous about the glue. I bought magnetic lashes at Target once and never gave them a try. It just seemed complicated but you just made it look do-able. Thank you.

[@unxplainedlogic4597]

I just put a little clear pigment glue by nyx on over my eyeliner and it holds the top strip just a little so I can apply the bottom lash strips

[@BriiGarces]

You make it look easy. I had my esthetician friend apply it at the salon I work at as a nail tech. And we had so much trouble applying them.

[@figgiejammer2337]

[@MrKongsMom]

I’m curious to try these. But they do seem a bit more of a hassle.

[@NikolJohnson]

No more hassle than applying them with glue. The best part is no one gets it right whether you are applying with glue or the magnetic ones the first go around. With the magnetic, you can do it a million times and not ruin your makeup or have glue all over the place. I think it's a great alternative when traveling or you want the spontaneous WOW lash at the last minute. xoxo

[@AfricanGirl]

MrKongsMom lol. they r. if I do the glue eye lashes I go to the nail salon 2 have them place on.

[@lindapowell2397]

[@cyberbrat1]

Laurice Dixon Same here...I bought them this week, epic FAIL at application Ill try again now 😉

[@theshadylady1982]

rose mary I bought them as well, also a HUGE FAIL... until I tried something before throwing them out. I cut the bottom one into 1/3's. There's 4 magnets on the bottom, cut the inner corner w one magnet, the outer corner w one magnet and the center w two magnets. Then lay the full top row on your lashes and use tweezers to first add the inner corner, then the outer corner, then the center! AMAZING the difference!! Give it a try, you'll love it!!

[@theshadylady1982]

I hope you ladies had some luck! I couldn't get them on even once until I cut them and then I got them on right away. Having a little mascara on your top lashes will help your lashes support the full row you lay across as you add the bottom ones to attach to the upper magnets. The closer to the root the better. This also fixes the extremely common problem of the lashes not curving enough and having the inner corner section stick straight out no matter what you try. This fixes that as well. :)

[@sarahwithstars]

KZbin is full of people trying these lashes for the first time on camera. It's so stupid. No one is putting their first ever pair of glued ashes on in videos to review the lashes are they? No, coz it's an unfair review. So why do it with magnetic lashes? 'first impression' videos are polluting youtube with useless content that contains both ill-informed opinion and very limited information. If vids are not informed nor informative, what is the point? Thank you for mastering this before going on camera and giving such close up detailed insight!

[@NikolJohnson]

Thank you Sarah I wasn’t sure if these would work so I wanted to test them out before doing a video. I watched so many beauty gurus and thought the same thing What Are They Doing??? Lol it didn’t make sense I am glad that I could put together a review that might help you girls with deciding to purchase or not. 😘😘

[@zarinaalexander7869]

to be honest i agree because i watch a video before ths and the girl bought one on amazon and try it she didn't put it on well and i didnt want to try it after that but after seeing this video it change my opinion immediately

[@novascotiaskater1868]

Agreed! I just watched another video with two ladies trying the magnetic lashes. They literally opened the package, read the instructions and then they each tried putting them on one time and declared them an epic failure....it was absolutely ridiculous. These lashes take some time to figure out what works best for you...some hacks work for some people and others work for other people. Do not expect to get them looking fabulous the first , fifth or even tenth time.....and since I’m here I’m just going to go ahead and be real for a minute ......my absolute biggest pet peeve about women putting on false eyelashes is when they say how natural they look. I’m sorry ladies but there are no false eyelashes out there that look natural. I have never seen anyone wearing false eyelashes who looked like they aren’t wearing them. False eyelashes are clearly, obviously and always obvious. That doesn’t mean thy don’t look good , they do look good, when applied properly but they are a “look”. I hate to say it but if you are wearing fake lashes and think that everyone just admires your long natural lashes you are mistaken!

I've done a lot of research, & your video is the only one showing the joining of 2 lashes together.

[@ladyhecate9450]

I just discovered your channel and really like what you do. You mentioned where you discovered that in applying the eyelashes, you like having the longest lashes being closer to your nose which is the complete opposite of the usual way of applying. I discovered way back that I prefer having the longest part of lashes like you discovered you now like. I have been applying eyelashes like that since I was 18 back in 1969. I am now 70. I never liked the traditional way of wearing eyelashes with the longest part ending up at the end of your eye, i.e., having that winged look. I always went against being told how to apply and did the opposite. I am glad that there is someone else who likes the way I like. Anyway, I love your channel. Thank you.
