You can get lashes that have the applicator in the box with it. It's basicall a very very wide tweezer. I used one a month ago for my sister's wedding and it was alot easier than not having it. I used my hands before. You grab the lashes with the giant tweezers, make sure you know which eye it goes on, then you put a very thin line of glue to the sticky part of the lashes. Close your one eye and place the lashes as close to your lash line as possible and press down carefully (very sticky!). You'll notice the white glue oozing out a little bit, but have no fear it will dry clear. Good luck and try not to get the glue in your eye... that hurts!!

I've worn them before and never had a problem. After putting a very thin layer of adhesive on them, I let it dry for several seconds, to the point where it gets tacky. Then when I apply them, I start with the outer corner of my eye. I don't use tweezers or anything, just my fingers. I slowly apply the fake lashes closest to where my real ones grow out of my eyelids. Since the adhesive is still tacky and not completely dry, I can reposition them as need be. After I get them in place, I let them dry completely before I touch up my makeup. Of course I'm talking about the strip lashes rather than the individual ones. I'd probably use tweezers for those.

If I am applying a strip, I dont use any tools.. just my hands, I feel like I have more control that way. It depends on the person though, some people HAVE to use the tools... if I am applying individual lashes, I use tweezers.

its kinda tricky but first you must close your eye and appy the glue to the lash rim then u must take tweezers ( these will help you set them better) and place the lashes in the far corner of your eye to the other corner Dont use your hands bc u want them to look natural and in order for thi to happen u must use the tweezers!

The real trick is to bend them slightly, INWARD, the ends toward each other, then they will adhere better on your lid when your are ready to place them. Put a thin layer of adhesive on,let it take, WAIT a few seconds. The adhesive takes hold better if you don't put it on immediatley, then they will just slide. Put on one side, let it take hold, then gently put the rest of the lash on your lid. Perfecton!

good luck. i usually apply it to my friends lashes' and even i have trouble putting it on her. but i would recommend that you get the lashes that have the glue already on them, only because having to apply the glue to the lashes yourself can get a little messy. but if you do get a little of the black glue on your eyelids, you could always just make your eyelids smoky so that you dont have to worry about cleaning up the extra glue.
