Finally, in another urge to have lovely doll-like eyes, I googled "Can't get the hang of false eyelashes." I didn't hold much hope, but to my surprise I found this post which tells of a "fool proof" way to apply false eyelashes! Basically, you put on the glue like an eyeliner, wait for it to get tacky and then place the lashes. I found a youtube video that actually shows how to do it, and nervously...I tried it. Good news: IT WORKED! ^_^ I'm not sure exactly how I feel about them. What do you think?
On another note, at a craft store yesterday they were having a sale on sewing baskets. I found a LOVELY basket to use for my calligraphy supplies. I like to write letters with an old-fashioned dip pen and ink. I just needed a place to store it all! Here's the basket:
I love the color scheme: cream, brown, rose and sage are my favorite colors! The closure is magnetic and it has a nice wicker border and handle. Inside:
There's my pen, nibs, inks, stamps for envelopes, and sealing wax.
I never wore false eyelashes until a few months ago. In the beginning, it took me an hour or so of frustration.
ReplyDeleteThe method you mentioned is interesting! Normally I just line the eyelash with glue, wait for it to get tacky, then use tweezers to place them.
I don't trust myself to actually put glue on my upper lash line haha.
クリス: Yeah, I was REALLY scared! But it was just like using eyeliner. You use an eyeliner brush and dip it in and basically line your eye. I was surprised how easy it was! ^_^
