Alexis probably has the most perfect, natural lashes I’ve ever seen, but getting them is super easy!
Step One: Curl lashes. This is especially important if you have shorter lashes that grow outwards instead of upwards. Alexis uses a Tarte eyelash curler but you can get them cheap at any drugstore. My tip is to look downwards into a mirror when I curl them. Gets a better grip/curl that way.
Step Two: Make sure your lashes are evenly spread out. You can use your finger or I use a spoolie to brush them out.
Step Three: Tightline your eyes. Basically this means lining your upper waterline with eyeliner (I prefer black). It sounds scary but it just kind of tickles. The result is a thick-looking lashline. Here’s a video to demonstrate (x). She used a liquid liner but i use pencil.
Step Four: Coat with mascara. Alexis uses Covergirl Lash Blast. Personally I love the Ulta Super Stretch Fiber Mascara (no longer available online but I’ve seen it in stores recently. Maybelline Mega Plush is a good dupe for this, just a couple dollars more expensive). It makes my lashes nice and black and soft looking. It doesn’t clump or get crunchy as the day goes on. I wiggle the wand from the bases of my lashes and upwards. I let the first coat dry and then I take the tip of the mascara wand and just coat the ends of my lashes. It gives them so much extra length. Last, I take the Cover Girl Lashblast Volume and wiggle it over the bases of my lashes to make them look extra thick.
