Mermaid lashes - this is going to be hectic!
oh my gosh!
Hey guys! So I'm here at "Envious Lashes" here with
a celebrity lash stylist Clementina Richardson
so she's actually going to be helping me
do this mermaid lash that we have here
so can you tell me a little bit about the trend
it's all about color
so what we're going to do
is a combination of purple, blue
of course we need to add some black in there
along with some red
so the extensions are attached directly
to the natural lash
using a medical-grade adhesive, two tweezers
there's no touching of the eyes whatsoever
you definitely will use a combination of
different lengths, different curvatures
in order to contour and create whatever
artistic style you're going for
we're gonna show you all the different colors
they have here
so let's get into it. let's do it
so first step is the consultation process
you have really great natural lashes
so in order to best accentuate your eyes
I'll have to decide
what type of curvature would look best on you
now turn facing forward
so what I'm looking at is
the curvature of the natural lashes
which is super super straight
you can see that they stick straight out
so you want them to lift up
if your lashes grow on one straight line
that means that your lashes are very sparse
color wise I'm thinking at least three colors
okay so let's have a look at the colors.
okay here we have red, we have the gold-tone
we have green, purple, blue, teal and the lilac
that's what it looks like
when it's individual
I'm not going to do the green
because I don't want you to look like Christmas
so I'm thinking red, blue, purple
yeah
and we decided on the cat eye style
so the longest ones would be on the outer corner
yes because of this type of styling we're doing
we're doing a cat eye
so yes the longest is definitely on the outer corners
I'm so curious what the red looks like
everyone has the same reaction
when they look in the mirror
oh oh it's gonna be bright
I'm like, no
the left hand is holding an isolation tweezer
and then once it's isolated
I pick up a strand on with my right hand
and attach it to the existing natural lash
so what this does it cures the bond and
it's also good for the stinging
feels good
at this point, I actually hadn't seen what I look like
but it kind of felt like a peacock was on my eye
let's move on to the other half of the eyes
and we'll do the big reveal at the end
everyone's lifestyle is different
so I have to see what they like
so showing pictures
the way a client actually wears their makeup too
also helps me out because
if you wear a dramatic smoky eye that tells me
you want like a lots of volume
and you like a dramatic look
and what necessary looks good on your friend
may not look good on you
everyone has two different eye shapes
different skin tone, different natural lashes
different textures
so take a look and tell me
what you think about them
oh my gosh
oh my gosh they're so natural
when you see both of them together
it just completes the look
we give her a nice like almond shape
we transferred slowly into purple, red combination
of course black is throughout the entire lash line
we went back again with purples
a little bit of blue, red, and black
and the longer ones were towards the outer ends
so now her eyes look like round and almond
they are rounder
even though we did the cat eye
yes, this is definitely wearable
coming in, I was like mermaid lashes
this is going to be hectic!
this is going to be crazy!
we always get the same reaction
people always think it's gonna be more dramatic
than it actually is
oh I can definitely do this
alright guys so as you can see
it was not intimidating at all
it's mermaid lashes
but it's still so wearable
and there's like pops of color
that I just didn't think would show up the way it did
was this what you envisioned at the beginning
when we were like, let's do it
you know what, it came out fuller than I thought
because her natural lashes are really dense
and she has like many different layers
I would say throughout her lash line
she has anywhere from like two to four
different layers of lashes
yeah who knew there were layers of lashes
layer of lashes are good
because the more layers you have
the fuller look you can achieve
and this one here actually guessed almost to the tee
how many lashes was on my right side
just by looking at it, you guessed 115
and there was 113
Wow! I've been doing it so long
I think I can just eyeball it
I can just see from the density
it looks about...
I was on point
so how would you say is a good way to maintain
or like to make them stay this way
obviously no rubbing the eyes whatsoever
try to avoid touching them with your fingers like this
because the fingertips
you tend to have oil on your fingers and
oil is not good for the extensions
what it does is it's going to break down the bond
and make your lashes shed prematurely
no picking of the lashes whatsoever
so as far as makeup removers, it must be oil-free
so this just sped up my morning process
so much quicker
I don't have to do mascara and all that
and you definitely don't want to
apply mascara over the lash extensions
you're gonna be creating excessive weight on them
so thank you so much Clem
