Do you know what time it is? It's time for another beauty trend. Don't worry, we aren't asking you to apply layers of foundation and concealer or sharing eye makeup hacks. In fact, you won't require many products to achieve the manga lash effect. Wondering what kind of lashes are these? Allow us to walk you through it. In Japanese comic books, you will come across many characters with eye lashes that tend to grow into pointy clusters. The lashes are spaced out along the top and bottom lash lines, which creates a spiky look. The manga lashes beauty trend draws inspiration from this look.
How To Create Manga Lashes To Ace This Beauty Trend
Well, you don't have to add a strip of lashes to your eyes. To get the manga lash effect at home, you have to carefully space out clusters or individual lashes.
Here is a step-by-step process:
Step 1:
Start with applying a small amount of eyeshadow primer to the eyelids. This will ensure that the product is where it should be. It will also prevent the mascara from wiping off onto your eyelids and cheeks.
Step 2:
Considering manga-inspired eyelashes are super noticeable, you will have to avoid dramatic or dark eye makeup. Go for a thin eyeliner [preferabley, black] and apply it close to your lid. You can even apply a white eye shadow.
Step 3:
Now, curl your lashes, from root to tip, clamping down 3 times at each level. Apply mascara starting by wiggling deep at the root all the way to the tips of your lashes. Use 2-3 thick coats of mascara to really get the manga look.
Step 4:
In case you face clumpiness on lashes owing to heavy mascara coating, use a mascara wand to wipe off excess residue. This will separate the lashes and define each individual lash.
Voila, your manga eye lashes are ready!
