Fake Lash Tutorial for Mature Eyes

[@TheMarionetteKitty]

I've never worn fake lashes. I'm East Asian with a monolid eye. As gravity has taken hold, my upper lids has started to droop slightly, and all of my lashes disappear when I open my eyes. This tutorial was just what I needed. Take the subscribe, I think you're awesome.

[@karennicol5140]

Oh my gosh. That tip is an absolute game changer. Thankyou SO MUCH. I'm past 60 and have tried for years to put false lashes on. I did what you taught this morning and hey presto... They are on and no hassle!! Brilliant. Thankyou😊

[@tinafry9328]

I just found your channel also. I tried fake lashes before, but I gave up You make me not want to give up . I may try it again . thank you

[@annfraley-mylife]

This tip about cutting the lashes in half looks to be a game changer. Thank you so much. I'm 62 and I don't go a lot of places where I really dress up. I have a very low maintenance look, anyway. However, while I don't expect anyone to think I'm in my 40s, I grew up being mistaken for younger (until I had twins lol). So, I hate that my eyes really just seem to disappear. I bought the Ardell Ecolashes no. 940. They are short. I do not have the polished, dressed up look that Michelle has, and I NEVER wear eyeliner, as I have tried and tried to get it right and I'm just no good at it. I don't want anyone to figure out that I'm wearing false lashes. I do wear contact lenses, and with these shorter lashes, and lack of glasses, that's all the boost to my looks that I really want. I don't even add liner and no one can tell my lashes are false.

[@frenesimyers1895]

Michelle is right, Practice Practice and Practice, you will get the eyeliner too, It worked for me !!!

[@gladyspimentel7140]

OMG. I would love to see a full makeup tutorial for mature skin. Thank you!

[@BibleBeauty]

Thank you Michelle for making this tutorial! I’ve got a drawer full of lashes & glues for years but have not been brave enough to actually apply them…I’m going to do this now! ❤

[@lisazaro]

I tried this tonight and it was so easy compared to the more expensive lashes I’ve used in the past. I used the Ardell 110s you recommended and cut them in about 1/2. They are so much easier to apply below my natural lashes, especially with the eyelid droop that comes with being 50+. Thank you for the tutorial!

[@KathleenRyanArt]

The best tutorial I’ve seen for false lash newbies…I started with Ardell #110s too but didn’t cut them in half…excellent tip… I just subscribed to your channel. I use that lash glue too. Thank you! 👏🏻👏🏻💕

[@jaderow1382]

You are a literal angel I'm brand new and never thought about cutting it in half and just doing the outside . I wondered if we could but didn't do it because I didn't know I love you!

[@camillelomax6774]

Michelle, why did I wait soooo long to try this? Fantastic! I’ve been wearing lashes off and on for a few years (I’ve always had short, straight and thin lashes). But I don’t always do an application job that’s comfortable! This was so easy and comfortable enough for everyday. Thank you!! ❤️

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

Oh! I’m so happy to hear this!

[@nancylyon-gray3499]

I just found your channel. I believe you are probably about 15 years younger than I am. I'm 63 and just starting skin care (big tanner in Scottsdale). Thank you for being so positive and helpful! Love your work!

[@kristinmatthew4446]

The glue is ready to put on the moment it looses its shine. Makeup artist/ Hairstylist here, love the tip about cutting the lashes in the middle! 🙌👏❤️

[@TheFf1097]

I just learned for the first time how to put on false eyelashes with another tutorial. It turned out so so. I found your tutorial and am so thankful I did! It makes so much more sense to cut the false eyelash and do what you instructed…in fact watching you has built up my confidence to keep going with this beauty task! Thank-you, and appreciate you taking the time to do this tutorial!❤

[@cherylcarey3727]

Thank you Michelle! Iam one of those. Women in my 60’s and have never used fake eyelashes. As I got older I noticed my eyelashes are not as long as I like them to be. Even with putting Mascara on! I will try these!

[@carolheimgartner5917]

I really enjoyed this tutorial. I am in my sixties and I remember having a passion for false eyelashes in my teens. And wigs. OMG! I recently purchased a set of half lashes but have found them hard to work with as the band is quite stiff. So now I am off to get the ones you recommend and I'll practice until I get it right. Thank you so much and I am now subscribed.

[@krishostetler3736]

I struggle with what angle to go in with the lashes. I just found you and am so excited to watch more of your videos. I'm also 62 and don't want to have my lashes jump out shouting, "I'm fake!" Thank you for offering this.

[@josewie]

Thank you. I have a draw full of fake lashes that I’ve never used.. now I have the confidence to try. ☺️🌺

[@sunshine1649]

I have a bunch that I'm too chicken to try. I'm afraid of gluing my eyeball together 😂

[@daniellefortini2149]

Just tried this for the second time today and the lashes came out better and easier!! Thanks!!

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

that’s incredible!! never give up, it gets easier and you get better

[@susanrenerounkles9763]

Thank you so much. I'm so happy I found you I'm 61,I tryed to wear fake lashes 3 years ago, and had no idea what I was doing. And applied the whole lash, and I have to wear glasses. Hun they were so uncomfortable and hit my lenses. So I've never tryed again. Going to a concert tonight so I wonted to try and wear them tonight Thank you for teaching me not to wear the whole lash to cut them into and only wear half on the out side. My eyes are very bold and very blue , wonted them to be very more bold. I'll definitely keep watching your videos to learn more from you. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@sincerely312]

Omg! This is the best lash tutorial I’ve watched. Definitely gonna try this technique ❤️

[@mdigiovanni30]

You made putting lashes so easy out of all the videos on applying lashes yours was the most easy and fun.

[@valiciawalker5198]

That was super easy to follow. I am excited to give them a try and practice several times. My daughter’s wedding is coming up in a few months!

[@mariluboode8240]

Wow! Thank you..i promise you and myself im definitely trying this. Great idea about cutting the eyelash. So using the inner cut lashes can be worn in the outer side of our eyes!! Awesome. lol thank you, thank you!!

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

So happy this was helpful!

[@xraydir1]

This is the best I’ve seen. Working with a 1/2 lash first. Hate to admit, but I am one of them that have gotten so frustrated!!! Gonna try this and let you know. Thanks.

[@BumbleBee666-u5t]

I use to use them when I was young but now I’m finding them very difficult to do, the half lash should be easier to try. Thank you so much.

[@dianaforsythecurran9441]

Thank you! I needed this last year when I was Mother-of-the-bride 😊 but now will try again

[@AK-kl7pg]

😂 "Snuffleupagus" thank you for that! Childhood memories. ❤ So many people apply the lashes onto their lashes instead of the skin, which results in pulling out lashes later. It also helps to go SUPER slow when removing.

[@mmoments5188]

This was so informational and they look great. Thank you for the tip!

[@sundaytejeda6110]

Thank you. Used your advice on this video and successfully put them on❤❤❤❤❤

[@Chris-ms5os]

I am a true believer and thrive mascara for the exact same reason cheap mascaras I cannot wear they make my eyes itch, but I’ve been using thrive for probably three or four years and they do extend your eyes it comes off in the shower love love the brand of mascara ....I am a pet sitter most of my clients are in the movie industry in all aspects from Actors to producers to make up artist etc. and a couple of my older clients in their 70s and 80s look fabulous and they all have false eyelashes so I’m getting to where it’s time for me to make it a new normal....

Best lash tutorial ever 💗 thanks so much 😊

[@annfraley-mylife]

I've worn my lashes twice, now and I was putting the glue on my lid, like liner. I knew it might be wrong but the instructions are printed in a font sized about -5 and I couldn't see it. Can't wait to do it by putting the glue on the band. lol

[@marthaneloms5422]

This video is very informative! Excited to try them!

[@mariel3469]

Thank you Great lesson I will try hmm wish me luck. Never done it on my own

[@marysevonburns593]

Awesome. Thank you and also for helping us older gals

[@nancyolson3258]

My second day of trying. I will be making a trip to my local retailer to see if I can find those Ardell 110 or Kiss Shy lashes. In the meantime I have been using what I had and cut the strips in two. My current issue is that I can't seem to get them to curve on my eye. So far they look like straight lines above my eyes. I think perhaps I need to put on a tad more glue, let it get sticky and then get them closer to my natural lash line; maybe that will help to bend them to the contour of my lid. Black tends to be a bit harsh so I hope to find a different eyeliner. Perhaps in a dark brown or brown/black color. My own natural lashes have gotten soooo sparse so I am really motivated to get this down. Thank you so much for your tutorial. Seems like every "celeb" is wearing them.

[@debzfeath6007]

hi love your hair this colour and style its absolutely gorgeous. Your make-up is fantastic also . Xx

[@bestlovecoach]

Wonderful tutorial. Some questions: How do you clean the lashes so they are reusable for the next wear? Also it would be helpful to have more clarity about which half of each eyelash goes on the eye. Also, did you apply eyeliner before you added the lashes, and if so what product did you use?

[@NicoleHurka]

She said only apply mascara AFTER the lashes are applied and only to your real lashes, she applied liner both before and after (to mask the glue better), I think she said the inner lashes of the two halves, rewatch she shows it I believe, and I think she said thrive mascara (warm water removal), but didn't mention the liner type.

[@NicoleHurka]

Just read a comment by her elsewhere and she said "I love the Stila or Maybelline Ink pen liners, they’re waterproof and can be as thin as you like. Or, the Elf No Budge pencil liner on waterline"

[@ninaboeske]

if i could give you 50 thumbs up if i could!!! you are simply the BEST!

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

Wow! Thanks so much!

[@cassandrawilliams8870]

Can’t wait to try, I have wasted so many lashes. This just might work for me

[@bethaquino5217]

So glad i found this video!! What do you when natural lashes are super straight?

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

That’s tough, you need a good eye lash curler for Asian lashes, try Shiseido or Shu Uemura. Then you need a curling mascara, a mascara that holds lashes up all day

[@dedecolwell2691]

Beginner here! Just found your excellent video! Two quick questions: Do you leave the lashes on from day-to-day or remove daily? Also, if you leave them on, how do you wash your face (and with what product)? Thank you!

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

I remove daily!

[@marilynmcleod4907]

Wow! Great video!! Thank you for this!

[@StitchALLTheThings]

I am laughing so hard at myself! I put those false lashes on yesterday, but didn't watch this video first. So, of course, I actually put mascara on them, threw away the snipped off pieces, and then threw the lashes away when I was done. I am dying laughing. Okay, next time no mascara, and save the lashes! Also, I need to get that KISS glue!

[@Sorraiamustang]

Thank You Michele !! What a great tutorial . I can do this !!!

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

I KNOW you can!!!

[@dianao8337]

Thank you for this video! I’ve been wanting to try lashes! 😊

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

I’m so happy you learned from it!

[@ssmith6974]

Finally.. I'm so excited! I have a small fortune thinking I can do it "this time". I am a graphic artist and cannot put on eyelashes. How sad is that? I've always had long thick lashes, but after COVID immunization they are still long but very sparse. So is my hair, unfortunately it's only on one side which is okay but constantly makes me look lopsided. I am a flight attendant and have to be at work very early in the morning like 2:00 a.m.! Is it able to wear lashes overnight so they can be ready for my work schedule. Even possibly more than one day, maybe only two if I had to sleep in them if possible. If anyone else knows in the comments please let me know also. It's an amazing tutorial and thank you so much!❤

[@TheSwissHillbilly]

Love the "demi" lash idea. I found a pair of dark brown demis, in the 70's, when I was in high school. I LOVED them. And, somehow, I never had to apply glue. I just pulled them off the form and stuck them on. I used them over and over. Since then, I've cut full lashes in half, just like you did in the video. Sadly, though, I cannot find dark brown lashes anymore. The brown that's available is too light, probably better suited to redheads or some blondes. Black is too harsh for my coloring. And, now that I'm in my early 60's, I definitely don't want that. Do you know of anybody making dark brown or black brown lashes? The struggle is real! Also, I've been fascinated by the double-strip, magnetic lashes--not the ones requiring a special eye liner. I like the idea of how quickly they can be applied, and no mascara is needed. And, eye liner is probably optional. Plus, it seems that with a strip of lashes above AND below, it would be very hard to tell you are wearing fake lashes, since your own lashes are encased, with the whole thing being seamless. Could you do a video on the magnetics?

[@annfraley-mylife]

Have you tried the ones with special liner? I'm curious.

[@TheSwissHillbilly]

@@annfraley-mylife Do you mean the ones that don't need adhesive? If so, no I have not.

Will these lashes work for hooded eyes as well?

[@TMiles-s1t]

That's cool the way to do that

[@nidareid-williamson5665]

For us hooded eye gals not wearing liner on the lid, can we still pull off this look? Love your videos! I feel like I have hope to still look good in makeup while I age :-)

[@adro13]

I have a very hooded eye and the only way I’ve ever gotten falsies to really look good on me is by applying them in segments from underneath. I have no room for traditional upper eyeliner, but I do tightline, so underneath is really the way to go. You may find the same works for you.

[@donaunsworth5620]

Hi im heading towards my 60s and sadly been having semi permanent lashes that have really damaged my lashes. The main question id like to ask is my hands shake badly with medication. Is there anything you can suggest that would help please? Ill definitely try the cutting in half but think tbat would fail due to sparse and short lashes tgat have survived. Many thanks ❤ from the 🇬🇧

[@dawnmichelle1835]

Curious - do you curl your lashes - when I've tried fake lashes mine stick straight out (brown) while the lashes curl up (black) and it looks so silly!

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

Yes, if you have straighter lashes you must curl first, possibly use a curling mascara, and then pop on the lashes!!!

[@dawnmichelle1835]

@@maturemakeupmasterclass Okay, I'm back - my first foray into a lash curler didn't go so well! I tried the pro one from Elf but it turns out it is too big and I can't get it close enough to my lash root without the sides hitting my nose bridge and somehow I've managed to also pinch my upper cheek with the handle (facepalm). Ugh. I did a little research and for deeper set eyes I'm hearing the Tweezerman Pro might be an option but before I plunk down more money, I thought I'd check back in with you... Maybe for us gals that have been curler shy all these years you might consider a video? I don't think I have the technique right either. I'm honestly terrified I'm going to clip them off...I'm the kind of makeup newbie that shaved off half her eyebrow the first time she tried an electric shaver (note to self NEVER get the two sided ones!!)

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

@@dawnmichelle1835 oh wow! I had no idea! Ok, a video need to happen! Thanks for the idea. I will tell you that my favorite lash curler EVER of my life is ShU Uemura, hands down there is no equal. It's around $20 or so but you'll have it a decade and you can buy the rubber inserts when needed

[@JuliesMakeupadvice60]

Hi can you cut the lashes even like 3 places to start or get the ones that you can put under the lashes, would the kids white glue work on the underneath little peicy lashes? You make it look so easy. This is my first time. Thank you so much for doing this video. Julie

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

You can cut it in as many segments as possible! As far as gluing under the lashes, try it!

[@MonicaBU]

How do you prevent that eyelash glue from looking crusty? When I use it it looks like crust on my lash line and I want to avoid that look. It’s why I prefer black glues but then it gives that dark line in the eye that looks like eyeliner and I don’t always want that.

Err on the side of less glue, but evenly thin across the band.

OMGosh you cannot possibly be 54 you look 25 to 30!!! I just got my lashes and had a not so good first attempt, actually it was a disaster. So I'm having great problems with my glue that came with the lashes. It doesn't seem to be mixed very well, so it's quite runny. I want to try Lashify glue next. I just had my lashes done a month ago and they were beautiful but expensive. Then I don't really want to pay a $150 a month to go in every 2 weeks to replace the ones that fell out. So thank you for this tutorial.

[@maturemakeupmasterclass]

This is actually healthier for your lashes than Lashify or extensions. Keep playing and practicing. Always buy glue separately, it's better quality and freshness.
