Remember, always consult your medical team and review any information provided by specialists about looking after your skin before using new products.

If you don’t want to use false lashes every time, here is a step-by-step guide to help you mimic the appearance of eyelashes and eyebrows:

• Smudge a dark eyeshadow or soft leaded pencil along the upper lash line to define your eyes. Alternatively, you could use a liquid liner to line the upper lash line. You can make the outer half slightly thicker to lift and elongate your eye. Add a wing for a touch of glamour

• For lower lashes, use a liquid liner. Take the applicator and wipe the excess off on the rim of the bottle. Now use the applicator to lightly draw lash-like strokes along the lower lash line

• Use eyeshadow applied with a hard, angled brush to soften the lash-like strokes, giving natural definition to the lash line and creating a more natural appearance

• If you have some remaining eyelashes that you want to accentuate, use a mascara with a small brush to catch every lash, such as No7’s Extreme Length Mascara

It’s important that you consider which products are best for you. Make sure to try new things one at a time so you know if you have any reaction you can easily tell which products may be causing it. If you start using a new product and find that it makes any side effects worse, stop using it and consult your medical team.
