I know what you are thinking: False lashes are challenging enough, why make the process more complicated? (Here’s how to apply them, by the way.) True, applying false lashes is incredibly daunting. Adding glue to your eyelids? No thank you. Can adding magnets make the process that much better? The truth is that a lot depends on your preference. Magnetic lashes are mess-free, easy to remove, and more likely to be worn again. You simply have to get over the fear of putting magnets near your eyes. The question remains: How do you get these things on? Without giving too much away (I’ll save the good stuff for below), magnetic lashes come with two rows for each eye. Each lash strip has two magnets–one on each side. One strip is meant for the top of the upper lashes, while the other is meant for the bottom of the same lashes (your bottom eyelashes are left bare unless you want to add mascara). The key to a good application is connecting the magnets at the right spot on your lash line. Once you get them as close as you can to the base of your real lashes, the magnets will snap together, creating full, voluminous lashes. See below for a step-by-step breakdown on how to apply magnetic lashes and conquer your false lash fears. Fuller top eyelashes are only four easy steps away. All in all, magnetic lashes offer an alternative to the messier glued-on lashes but do come with their own unique obstacles. Try out a pair of magnetic lashes and see which you like best.
