I recommend Dimples as they are available in a variety of lengths and colours, which you can match to your own requirements.

You can wear these lashes constantly if you wish, mine usually last up to two weeks, and if you have a supply, you can always replace any which come off. You can swim, shower and carry on with all normal activities wearing these lashes if you want.

Dimple individual false eyelashes are a godsend to those of us not blessed with lucious, thick or long lashes ! Having tried every volumising, lengthening, tubing, eyelash primer, and even using talc (yes it does work as a thickener between coats of mascara), I discovered false lashes.

Initially I battled with the spiders which come in a strip out of a box, but my eyelids looked like they had ton weights on them, I could never get the line straight, correct amount of adhesion etc., Eventually, afraid they may land in somebodies soup I HAD to seek an alternative.

There are many different types of "individual" lashes on the market, indeed you can pay a fortune to have the put on professionally, but with a little care and practice there is no reason any lady cannot have longer, thicker, natural looking lashes at home and, very economically.

Once you have purchased your lashes, here is a summary of what you will need and how to apply:

Tray of lashes (individually marked with lengths etc., for easy choice)
Eyelash Glue (comes in black or clear, I prefer the clear) - may come with lashes or can be purchased separately.
Good pair of tweezers
Small piece of card or aluminium foil to put glu on
Mirror (high recommend a magnifying type)

Remove tray fo lashes from box, study them carefully and then stare at your own lashes in the mirror. You will see that upper lashes tend to commence short at the inner corner, longer towards the middle and medium at the outer edges - try and follow this pattern with the false lashes. Do not try and go mad and lengthen your lashes too much, i.e. long lashes in the inner corner - it will not work!

Put a small amount of glue on your card or foil, carefully pick up the lash from the tray with the tweezers and dip the knotted end into the glu so there is a tiny blob of glue on the end. Apply the lash as close to your own natural lash as possible and ensure it has adhered. Don´t worry if you do not get it perfect the first try - remove, apply a little more glu and start again!

I start at the middle of the upper lid with the a long lash, but adapt to your own lash length, use medium if necessary. Repeat this procedure on the other eye (ALWAYS go from eye to eye, applying the same amount of lashes to each to ensure they are uniform). I usually then apply a medium lash to the inside of the first lash, and either long or medium to the outside - always working from eye to eye! ). Then apply a shorter lashes towards the inner corner of the eye. I usually use 5 lashes on each upper lid, but this will depend on the size of your eyes and the effect you want.

Be careful NOT to overdo it, it is amazing how just a few lashes will completely open up the eye and look glamorous. I do not use eyeliner to cover any lash line, because these lashes do not make one, when I am going out I try and use mascara on my own lashes (from the underneath) after applying the false lashes to "blend" them in, but it is not a must.

You can purchase eyelash glu remover (either in kit or separate) to take off the lashes, but I like them so much I tend to keep them on. I have been wearing these lashes for years and nobody has ever guessed they are not real - and the only person I told immediately rushed to a salon to have hers done - at a cost of 50GBP!,

My tray (which contained 124 lashes) had cost me around 2.99 GBP, large bottle of glue for around 1.99 GBP.

I would recommend these lashes to anybody who has (like me) not been blessed with long, thick eyelashes, they make an incredible difference to the eyes and you will notice people looking at you and not quite workin out why you look so good !

One word of caution - applying these lashes can be akward at first - Practice, Practice, Practice ! If you have a big event coming up and want to wear them, apply early in the day so they have a good time to "set" and you can correct any mistakes. Once you have the hang of it, application takes about 15 minutes (maximum).
