Never before have there been so many ways to create the appearance of long eyelashes, and I am happy about it. As a mobile makeup artist, I pick up new techniques from different beauty communities, and it’s so fun to introduce them to my clients. It’s always a good idea to experiment with different methods with the potential of satisfying clients even more. Here are some modern ways beauty gurus are lengthening their lashes look:

Lash Extensions and Perm
Many people are starting to see a lash technician to get their extensions and perm done. What you should know is that you should find an experienced technician or you can get an eye infection. You don’t want irritated eyes during your makeup appointment!

Magnetic Eyeliner
Long gone are the days of using just glue to attach false eyelashes. Some falsies come with a magnetic eyeliner that you can draw along your lash line, and the false lashes will latch on. With my experience of completing bride hair and makeup, I can draw the best-winged eyeliner to accompany your false lashes.

Magnetic Eyelash Strips
Want full lashes without the eyeliner look? These falsies are for you. They are exactly what it sounds like. A strip is placed above your natural lashes and one goes below it, letting the two clamp on. They are reusable and easy to take off.

Lip Gloss- Yes, Lipgloss! 
Do you notice your lashes pop right when you get out of the shower? You can recreate that wet look by clumping your lashes together with heavy mascara and coating it with clear lip gloss or vaseline after.

Despite the lack of reporting on eyelash trends in beauty news, these emerging techniques prove that the long lashes look will always be coveted. I know how especially important this staple style is while being a makeup artist in Toronto. Long lashes help you look refreshed and awake, (plus flirty) in a busy and competitive city. I love discussing trends with my clients over appointments, make sure to book yours in 2020 and I’m looking forward to seeing you soon!
