The natural look is here to stay in makeup trends. The world’s most acclaimed makeup artists champion it, and it’s easy to spot on fashion runways. No wonder so many of us are giving up heavy makeup for something subtler that’s all about highlighting our best features. But you don’t have to give up beauty extras like false lashes or nails. How do you wear them for a soft, delicate look? Find out!
The secrets of subtlety: a natural look with false lashes and nails
False lashes have been around for many years. Over time, however, both the way they’re applied and their design have changed dramatically. Many of us remember the days when stores only sold traditional glue-on lashes, and their quality and look left a lot to be desired.
Today, you can choose from many models that let you amp up your makeup and define your eyes. With such a huge selection, it’s easy to pick extras that guarantee a subtle effect. Among them, you’ll find magnetic lashes in various shapes – including cat eye, round and wispy.
One of the most important rules of a natural look is applying your false lashes correctly. Wink Beauty lashes are easy to trim, so you can tailor them to your look and your eye shape. That way, you’ll get a subtle lengthening or volumizing effect – whichever you’re after.
Also remember to draw a precise line with magnetic eyeliner. That way, the magnets on the lash bands will instantly connect with it, and your false lashes will blend seamlessly with your natural ones.
What about false nails? Wink Beauty press-on nails are nothing like the acrylic tips of the early 2000s. They look incredibly natural and turn your hands into your calling card. Their carefully thought-out design matters, too – the nails fit perfectly along your cuticles, so you avoid a tacky look. You can also choose their shape, depending on whether you’re a fan of classic square, almond or round nails.
Care for a natural effect: how to look after false lashes and nails
Caring for your false lashes is the key to keeping them looking perfect. It largely determines whether you’ll achieve a natural eye look. We have good news for you – it’s much easier than you might think. So how do you care for magnetic lashes?
The most important thing is to clean them before putting them back in their original box. Make sure there’s no product residue – such as eyeliner or eyeshadow – left on the magnets on the band. If needed, wipe them clean with an oil-free makeup remover.
Also remember not to rub your eyes during the day. That way, you’ll minimize the risk of damaging the magnetic bands as well as individual fibers or entire clusters.
Now you know how to care for false lashes. Next up: the secrets of caring for false nails. Start with proper application – thoroughly degrease your natural nail plate. Then apply glue or a special adhesive tab, depending on how long you want to wear your chosen look. The key to success is protecting your press-on nails – apply an extra layer of clear polish to make them more resistant to scratches and damage. Also remember to moisturize your cuticles, so your nails stay even more firmly in place on your natural nails.
How to choose the perfect beauty extras for your style
A natural look with false lashes and nails? It’s possible, but make sure you match them to your style and personality. If you go for magnetic lashes, make sure their shape reflects your features and personality – round models are a very versatile choice, just like “cat eye” styles. Wispy lashes are spot-on if you like to define your eyes subtly but noticeably.
And how do you choose false nails? If you want a subtle effect, go for light colors – bolder ones are a great choice for, say, a big night out. And the shape? Anything goes.
