Beauty How-To: 10 Different Types Of False Lashes And What They Do For You!

imageNow that false eyelashes have really hit their height as a beauty trend and have become more everyday-acceptable than their exclusively-for-Vegas-showgirl roots, a falsies virgin can’t help but be overwhelmed by the endless array of styles that bombard her at the “beauty bar” every time she enters a Sephora. Aside from the obvious feather-embellished and loopy rainbow fringe courtesy of Shu Uemura’s Tokyo Lash Bar, even the multitude of natural lashes can appear crazily intimidating. Criss-cross, short and dense, long and tapered, sectional… why the heck are there so many different kinds, and why don’t any of them actually look like normal eyelashes at all? The first step in banishing the lash confusion is to have an open mind; what looks flashy or scary (and sometimes even spidery) in the package won’t actually look like that on your lids. And while this isn’t a step-by-step guide to applying lashes (still working on it myself — practice makes almost-perfect), it can help you with the first hurdle: choosing the right type to play up your peepers. And remember — as long as you treat them with care, they’re reusable, so you don’t have to spend on each individual use! So if you’re already armed with the desire for fluttery fringe and plenty of patience, check the slideshow for a selection of 10 different lashes and what they do exactly!
