What are the best and easiest to apply false eyelashes?

What's your favorite mascara for volume? Lengthening? Both?


Give me advice for combing/curling lashes? Before/after mascara? Eyeshadow? 


Thanks!

I have always curled my lashes after I applied my mascara, but I'm trying to get into the habit of doing it before because it's not good for your lashes to do it after.

i love love love lashes! try getting the ones that are made with real hair, and if your a beginner i would start off with strip lashes and not individual. the individual are a little trickier to apply. also a little tip, when you apply the glue to the lashes make sure to let them dry a bit until its kinda tacky/sticky. that way it will stick to your lids a lot better and not slip around everywhere.

for mascara, my fave one is the rimmel extra super lash. i love any kind of mascara that will lengthen my lashes. im looking for a new mascara to use right now though.

as for curling them....i have really really straight lashes. what i do is curl my lashes, apply a thin coat of mascara and then let it dry. then i'll warm my eyelash curler slightly with my blow dryer and then curl it again and apply one more thin layer of mascara. that way my lashes will stay curled. i hope this helps :)

If you're looking for affordable/reusable/durable lashes, Model21 lashes on Ebay are really great. 3/4 strips are easier to apply than full strip lashes.

The best lengthening/volumizing/waterproof mascara is MUFE Smokey Eyes Aqua.

I would DEFINITELY suggest anyone that is particular about their lashes to purchase a metal lash comb to blend their false lashes w/ their real ones, or to comb out clumpy mascara. It's a crucial tool to have if you're finicky about details like I am.

I completely agree w/ everything Jess says too.  =)

Okay so I had to add to this post because I feel like I have truly found a diamond in the rough.
3 Words: FOREVER 21 LASHES
It might sound crazy but I am telling you. They are the BEST lashes I have used in a long time. They are so easy to apply (just make sure you use DUO eyelash adhesive)
--The best part? They cost 2.80$

I find that lashes that have a clear band are more easy to work with. I apply lashes, curl then apply mascara. The mascara that I am currently using and really loving is the Urban Decay Lush Lash mascara.

I don't use false lashes unless I'm going out or something so I don't know which ones are best but mark's Lash All You Want Mascara is AMAZING.

I have a review with pictures on my blog:

I use it everyday and I don't ever plan on switching. & it's only $10. I'm a rep too :]

i think human hair lashes with the clear bands are easier to apply than lashes with dark bands it could just be me, but i feel like the black bands are thicker and don't bend as easily as the clear ones.. and synthetic hair lashes are always way more difficult for me to apply
