Okay, so, today I wanted to talk about something I’ve been messing around with lately: drama llama lashes. Yeah, it’s a silly name, but these lashes are seriously cool. I’ve always been into trying new makeup stuff, and when I saw these, I just had to give them a shot.
First off, I did a bit of digging around to see what the deal was with these lashes. I found out that there are tons of different styles out there, like classic, hybrid, and volume. Classic is more natural-looking, while volume is all about that full, glam look. Hybrid is somewhere in between. After checking out some examples, I decided to go for the volume lashes because, why not? Go big or go home, right?
Then, I started looking into the application process. I learned that classic lashes are applied one by one, while volume lashes involve applying multiple thinner lashes to each natural lash. There are also these things called 2D lashes, which are like classic but with a bit more oomph. Ratios matter, too. I read somewhere that the most attractive eyelash length to eye-width ratios are around 0.20 to 0.36. I have no idea what mine is, but I figured it wouldn’t hurt to experiment.
I got my hands on a volume lash kit and watched a bunch of tutorials online. It looked easy enough, but let me tell you, it’s trickier than it looks. The first time I tried, it was a bit of a mess. I poked myself in the eye a few times. I accidentally glued some of my bottom lashes to the top ones. It was a struggle, to say the least.
But I kept at it. I figured it was like anything else – practice makes perfect. I tried again the next day, and it went a little smoother. I managed to get most of the lashes on without too much trouble. They looked pretty good, if I do say so myself. They were definitely dramatic, just like the name suggests.
Here’s a rundown of what I did:
- Research: I looked up different lash styles and application techniques.
- Choose Style: I decided to go with volume lashes for a dramatic look.
- Practice: I practiced applying the lashes, and it took a few tries to get it right.
- Enjoy: I rocked my new lashes and felt pretty fabulous.
In the end, I’m really happy I tried these drama llama lashes. They’re a fun way to switch up my look, and I feel like a total diva when I wear them. It took some trial and error, but now I’m getting the hang of it. If you’re thinking about trying them, I say go for it! Just be prepared for a bit of a learning curve, and don’t be afraid to laugh at yourself when you inevitably mess up a few times.
