Any woman strives to be charming and tries to bring a twist to the image that will distinguish her from the crowd.
Owners of long and thick cilia amaze with a piercing gaze, but not all have rewarded fluffy eyelashes with nature and here the latest extension technologies will come to the rescue, which will add attractiveness to the fairer sex.
A similar procedure can be carried out in any beauty salon, as well as nail extension, or made by yourself. Let's discuss how to grow eyelashes at home.
Choose eyelashes for self-extension
Be smart in choosing eyelashes. Experts recommend using materials based on PBT polyester for self-building. Cilia differ in length, thickness, degree of bending (indicated by letters).
For building at home, you need cilia of different lengths. When choosing a size, consider the place of adhesion and the desired image. Make-up artists recommend building a shorter length by the middle of the century, which emphasizes naturalness. Long eyelashes at the outer corners of the eyes will help to add depth to the look.
Take care when choosing a shape to prevent the appearance of an unnatural doll. The color scheme of the material will suit any.
Buy material at a specialty store, but don’t be stingy, as cheap products can have a negative effect on the retina eyes. Cilia are sold in bunches or individually. In salons they use products with high quality for building:
- Ardell.
- Kodi.
- Salon Perfect.
Safety Precautions
When doing self-building, follow technology and safety precautions.
Sterilize and sanitize instruments. Disinfection makes it possible to disinfect and destroy infectious agents. Tweezers, a brush and any instrument used should be immersed in a disinfectant solution at the end of use. The use of a cotton swab dipped in alcohol for these purposes is unreliable. Bacteria in this case will not be completely removed.
The disinfection time must be in accordance with the instructions. It is recommended to disinfect materials with Optimax or Bebidez Ultra. After thorough washing under running water, we proceed to sterilization, which will save objects from microorganisms. Sterilization can be carried out both by boiling and by steam treatment. Tweezers after the procedures are cleaned with an organic solvent from the adhesive base. For disinfection, a liquid debonder is also suitable.
Do not be distracted during the procedure and do not blink, do not forget to follow the rules of personal hygiene.
When buying materials, choose hypoallergenic products made of synthetic artificial material, which will prevent the appearance of allergic rashes on the skin. The glue should contain a minimum amount of formaldehyde, and the aroma should be barely noticeable.

Step-by-step upgrade plan
In the process of building up do not worry and do not rush. Following the step-by-step instructions, you can quickly build cilia with your own hands at home.
- Open the package with eyelashes. First, we select those with which the process begins, and the remaining ones are pushed aside so as not to confuse.
- Pour some glue base onto the cardboard.
- Using tweezers, we catch the eyelash and lower it into the glue base.
- We quickly glue it on a previously marked place on the eyelid. You can glue the material in bundles, which will save time, however, such work does not look very impressive.
To glue the hair, painlessly hold the eyelash clamped with tweezers to the place of gluing, with the fingers of the second hand, press the hair to your eyelash. Do not release material immediately. It is recommended to hold them for about 4-5 seconds for a better grip.
Some beginners make the mistake of sticking artificial cilia under their own. In no case should you repeat such actions. Applying material is only possible on your eyelashes. When gluing, it is important to observe symmetry, which emphasizes the naturalness of the image.
