A flattering lip color or perfectly executed cat eye are all well and good, but nothing adds that extra ‘oomph‘ to your look like a set of false lashes. When I took makeup classes years ago, adding lashes to my model each time was always the final step I didn’t realize I needed. And just like shoes, there’s always a good pair for every occasion.
Date Night
Whether it’s your first date or your fiftieth date, there’s nothing like getting dolled up for a night of romance with that special someone. Go for a low-key, but still flirty set of NYX falsies like Frisky. The spaces in between will allow your own lashes to intermingle with them for a more natural look that’ll enhance any eye shape. Soft, wispy lashes like these are also ideal for false lash newbies.
Wedding
As the blushing bride, looking glamorous while not overly made up is the key to your special day. Stick to a pair like NYX’s Jezebel, that adds just the right amount of both volume and length to your lashes. The ‘ascending’ lash hairs, that grow longer towards the outer corner, also open up and lift the eyes so you can skip on applying tons of makeup to achieve the same look.
Girl’s Night Out
It’s time to let loose with your girlfriends. But before you start throwing back drinks and dishing on the latest gossip, top your lash line off with a pair of GNO-worthy falsies like Sinful. The varying mix of short, medium, and long strands amp up your look and instantly add three-dimensional volume.
Holiday Party or a Fancy Get-Together
A holiday party, or any party for that matter, is a great excuse to go extra (and I mean, extra) glam just like NYX’s Fatale falsies. It’s all about length with this one to give you fluttery lashes that’ll reach the heavens, and make you stand out in the dozens of selfies you’ll be a part of, of course.
Concert / Any Fun Occasion
When fun is the theme for the day, your lashes should be feeling it, too. NYX’s Scandal falsies are THE perfect blend of luscious length and va-va-volume, and the ultimate go-to pair for any exciting event, whether it’s belting songs out loud along with your favorite band or even whiling hours away at a theme park.
