Diamante lashes?? Too fabulous!!I'm afraid I've abandoned false eye-lashes since discovering the miraculous Eye-tec lash extensions (which cost a bomb but look too fab for words, www.eye-tec.co.uk). But yes Marsha6 is right, you need to take your time. It also helps if you put some toner on a cotton bud and wipe it along the lash-line where you're going to stick the falsies, so that it's clean and free from grease, eye-cream, mascara, eyeshadow etc, all of which will stop the things sticking (then make sure the skin is dry before you start glueing). The other thing that helps is to put a mirror flat on the sink/bed/dressing table and apply the lashes while looking down into it. For some reason, it's miles easier than trying to do it while looking straight ahead.

It is imperative that you TAKE YOUR TIME when you do false eyelashes. Rushing it will only balls it up. The key is to be gentle, steady-handed and patient. Most glues work brilliantly if you leave them time to settle.
