Choosing false lashes is a matter of experience. Are you a beginner or curious to find out what might suit you? We explain how to choose your false lashes for a guaranteed glamorous look.

It's easy to be tempted by the glamorous and mysterious image of a Kim Kardashian-style lash-fringed gaze. These synthetic lashes have the advantage of enlarging the eyes, brightening the face, and adding character to even the simplest of looks.

Although the idea of enhancing them every day can be tempting, false lashes still suffer from a rather unflattering reputation. They are generally considered difficult to apply and are thought to be intended for seasoned beauty addicts. Far from it! With new trends, increasingly simple models, and countless tutorials available online, we can (almost) say that it is now child's play. The hardest part will be choosing from the trendiest false lashes of the moment.

How to choose your false lashes? What you need to know

Before embarking on the great beauty adventure of false lashes, you need to know how to choose them. Naturally, the market offers a little of everything, from the best to the lowest quality, from the simplest to the most extravagant style, from the most classic to the most high-tech technique. To be sure not to make a mistake, especially if it is your first purchase, it is best to have all the cards in hand.

Magnetic false lashes

Magnetic false lashes are one of the recent techniques that make applying false lashes easier. How does it work? It's very simple. Magnetic false lashes come with an eyeliner whose ink is magnetic. You just need to draw a line along the upper lash line with this magic eyeliner, then place the lash strip (specially magnetized to stick to the eyeliner line). This solution avoids the use of glue, which can be scary for the most reluctant, but it is also an excellent alternative for those who want a natural look and a lightweight result on the eyelid.

Adhesive false lashes

Adhesive false lashes are quite easy to apply. Lash styles range from the most natural to the most glamorous effect (similar to Russian volume). To apply adhesive strip lashes, it's simple: just peel the lash strip from its original packaging and simply stick it to the base of the lashes on the upper eyelid. Note that if a lash strip is too large for your eye, you can always cut off the end to adapt it. Like magnetic false lashes, adhesive false lashes are reusable many times, provided you take care of them and clean them after each use (we explain how to clean your false lashes at home!).

Magnetic lashes

They are similar to magnetic false lashes but are not applied with a magnetic eyeliner. Magnetic synthetic lashes stick to the lash line thanks to small clusters of magnetic lashes that hold the strip at the inner and outer corners of the eye. They are rather simple to apply but still require a certain dexterity. They are also a good solution for those who have sensitive eyes. 

Choosing your false lashes according to the shape of your eyes

After choosing the best model, you now need to define the style that will brilliantly enhance your gaze. To do this, it is good to be able to determine the shape of your eyes. Rather round? Almond? Hooded? Small? Large? Every detail must be taken into account to get the best possible result.

For round eyes

Round eyes are easily surrounded by baby lashes or baby lash effect lashes for a guaranteed "kawaii" effect! We then favor dense strips but with fine lashes. The synthetic lash line must be very full and uniform from the inner corner to the outer corner of the eye.

For almond eyes

Like the oval face shape, almond eyes can have anything! However, if you want to accentuate their "elongated" side, you can turn to butterfly-style lashes, which focus entirely on a full outer corner to enlarge the gaze.

For hooded eyes

Hooded eyes are generally small and rather deep in their orbit. To counteract this and enlarge the gaze, we focus on false lashes that are fuller on the inside and lighter at the inner and outer corners. The gaze must be brought to the center of the eye to give it the illusion of having been enlarged!

For small downturned eyes

Here the idea will be to enlarge small downturned eyes and open the gaze to brighten the face. It's simple, we favor an elongated lash strip that always stretches from the center of the eye towards the outer corner. Guaranteed doe-eyed result. 

If you are the type who likes fancy things, know that there are also fur false lashes, colored lash strips, or strips accessorized with rhinestones and glitter. These extravagant models can do the trick for an evening or simply spice up the look of a confident personality! If you already have more or less full lashes and you want to add a little more volume, then you can opt for the solution of small clusters spaced here and there to give natural lashes their panache back. 

The Roselash serum, a natural alternative to false lashes

Although false lashes are a good occasional alternative, they are still a bit annoying to apply every day... For long lashes with the ideal curl, lash extensions can do the trick, but the result is not eternal and it comes at a certain cost! Lash growth serum remains truly THE most lasting solution. At ROSEGOLD PARIS, the Roselash serum is formulated to boost lash growth and give them new vigor. How does it work? Rich in Biotin and composed of 95% ingredients of natural origin, this lash growth serum is applied in a morning and evening course along the lash line of the mobile eyelid. The product will then nourish the hair follicles and allow the hair to grow in a healthy environment. For proven results, the Roselash serum must be applied for at least one month.
