When do you know you have found the perfect set of lash extensions.

Hey guys,

Well here is another little blog for those of you who have joined and those of you who will join and read.

Eye lash extensions are one of the most recent beauty wonders of 2010 and they are taken the world by storm. A lot of beauty salons are doing them now but unfortunately a lot of girls and boys are not trained well enough resulting in sticky, clumpy eye lashes.

As a make up artist I understand the shape,length,thickness and texture of lashes and how they should look for the best effect.

Before I even touch your eye lashes I make sure your eye lashes are clean and free of any mascara or oil. I then place micro pore tape down on your bottom lashes to keep them away from your top ones, if  I did not do this the adhesive could catch the bottom lashes and both will set together making it uncomfortable afterwords to separate.

I place individual strands of synthetic and natural fiber hair onto your existing eye lashes. I use many different lengths of lash to build up a thicker fuller lash line.

Many clients ask me for a very natural look and then once they see the result want more and more applied because of its done right it just looks like the images above.

When you have your lashes applied it very important to keep them out of contact with anything oily and chemically strong.

Use light eye cleansers around your new lashes, preferably i love to use the new Marks and Spensors cotton buds with the eye make up remover inside,genius!.

You can carry on doing exactly what you do every day with your lashes, just use your head and don't be to harsh i.e no puling, dragging.

TOP TIP: take a tiny bit of Vaseline on your middle fingers and rub up underneath on the lashes, this keeps them moist and keeps the lash from drying out. Vaseline does have oil in it but just use the tiniest amount.

If anyone has any questions please ask.

I will have lots to come about make up too and lots of videos too.

Speak soon.
