It says to put them on after you apply makeup. But to me, that seems like it won't hold if it's just glued to makeup and not skin...any tips?

i am a big fan of fake eyelashes!
first, its cheap and reusable! you dont really need to depend on mascara that much!
for hygienic purposes, clean the fake eyelashes with makeup remover and shampoo it lightly, or just buy more! :)
its easy to use, as well. i have always wear my fake lashes AFTER applying my makeup. when you apply the glue directly on your lashline, the glue must be SEMI-DRY. you MUST NOT apply the glue when its really wet bcos' your real lashes will look messy! when it's semi dry, its more easier to apply! make sure you apply it directly on your lashline, not your eyelids! don't apply them closer to the inner corners of your eyes, your eyes will look funny and your eyes will tend to feel irritated.
if you were to apply your fake lashes BEFORE your makeup, the dried glue will tend to create a dried-glue texture above your lashline, making it hard to use your foundation and eyeshadow.
hope this helps!
oh! and make sure you prepare black liquid eyeliner to run over the the lashline covered with dried glue to make it look invisible, thus, your fake lashes will look more natural!
you'll be an expert once you've got the hang of it!
all the best!

ok, heres the deal. They tell you to put them on after makeup for 2 reasons.
One, they won't stick, so you can waste a pair and get to the second set.
Two, I put them on before, and they tell you not to because your eyeshadow could flake onto the lashes so you have eyeshadow on the fake lashes.
I do it either way, depending on what company I have around. I like to use MAC studio, but since I work at SEPHORA, and i get the discount, I have tons of sephora lashes laying around. If you really have like 20 extra dollars, the DIOR lashes are to die for! Really! Good Luck!

I would put them on B 4 applying makeup. Besides I always put mascara on before eyeshadow. That way the mascara dries before you put on the eyeshadow. But put the lashes on 1st...

you can do either. i`ve done it both ways and it really makes no difference. whatever works better for you. if you have really large eyelashes, then you might want to do makeup first so they don`t get in the way. good luck!

Just don't put them on... sometimes they make people look like the tasmanian devil.
