Fake eyelashes are a struggle for most people, so we brought in 50 women and one expert to figure out the easiest way to get them on.
See the video.

Putting on fake eyelashes is not a quick-master thing. By maybe the eighth time you do it, it goes OK, but before that, it's a steep learning curve full of sticky substances and becoming intimately familiar with the feeling of your eyelashes falling off. Hilarious, horrifying, it can go either way (depends how much glue is involved). The good news is that no one starts out a pro, so we challenged 50 women to put on fake eyelashes, and gave them a couple of pointers along the way. See for yourself where they started from, and maybe pick up a couple tips yourself.
