LASHES, LASHES, LASHES
Selecting the right false eyelashes is an essential part in making your eyes appear bigger. Struggling to decide which lashes suit you best? Don’t worry, we‘ve got you boo. We have put together a blog post on each and every eye shape there is covering everything from deciding what eye shape you have to suggestions on false eyelashes suit you best. However, there is no right or wrong in the beauty industry, it’s all about playing around, having fun and getting creative.
Applying false eyelashes is a super quick task once you know how to, click here to view our blog page on how to apply false eyelashes like a pro. Don’t forget to use lash tools such as an eyelash applicator and eyelash curler as this will really step up your lash game! A top tip from the Lash Envy Beauty team is, never, ever neglect the mascara! Applying mascara prior to putting on your falsies will give the lash adhesive something to give onto. It will also ensure your natural and false eyelashes blend together seamlessly. For a big doe-eyed look, we suggest full lashes or voluminous lashes which are not flared (AKA cat eye lashes). These styles of lashes will really open up those beautiful eyes of yours making them bigger than before. The Lash Envy Beauty Luxury 3D Mink and Faux Mink (Vegan) lash range have a 3D effect which opens up the eye and the strip lashes look like real eyelashes rather than shiny cheap synthetic lashes that look completely unrealistic.
Bags Under Your Eyes – The Only Bags We Don’t Want!
Dark circles under your eyes? Long day studying, at work or from partying the night away? While nothing beats some quality beauty sleep, a great concealer can does the trick nicely too. Try a concealer that is lighter than your skin tone, this will give your under eyes a more brightened look. Still not quite done the trick? Why not try some correcting concealer? Don’t be mistrustful of the green and purple correctors, they can balance dark circles well and successfully brighten up the under eye area.
TLC: Detox & DEPUFF Those Beautful Eyes
Give those gorgeous eyes of yours a little TLC. Grab an under eye mask with nourishing or rejuvenating benefits, this can instantly improve the appearance of puffy eyes. On a budget? We got you… again! For a DIY choice why not try using wet cooled tea bags, cooled cucumbers or a tea spoon that has been cooled in the fridge?
Eyeliner… yep.
Try a dark brown or black eyeliner pencil paired with a pair of 3D lashes will give you that gorgeous doe-eyed look.
If in doubt, WHITE it OUT
Scared of the black eyeliner? Black liner isn’t for you? Why not try some white eyeliner applied directly on the waterline. This will really open up your eyes and make them look bigger too. You can also try lining the inner corners to make your eyes appear bigger, this is what a lot of celebrities do.
Top tips:
A big game changer is to apply a small amount of highlighter to the corner of your eyes (in the tear duct part). Blend some highlighter into the crease of your eyelid and on your brow bone. This will have you looking like a glowing goddess making your eyes pop and stand out!
