yeah as i said just trim 2-5mm
looksmax.org
its good, i recommended it in the thread too
Wait does this mean I can inject latisse into my cheeks?
no there isnt enough latisse in a bottle and too much surface area on your cheeks
Ight lol
my application method I actually touch my eye on purpose and blink my lashes onto my fingertip and it works super well zero burn no blur. i do wear contacts so my fingertip is on the lense
thanks a lot... kindly bring such more high effort guides... much appreciated.DISCLAIMER:

Well this guide has you covered, so stick around and ascend.
I tried making this thread as concise and straight-to-the-point as possible, so here we go.
Eyelashes matter way more than some people think; from improving contrast, to frauding PFL, etc. - eyelashes go a very long way for such a small element of our face. They are way too easy to improve not to, and if you aren't doing what I am about to tell you, then you're really missing out. The reason I have decided to make this thread is partially due to the shear amount of compliments I get, besides everything else, for my eyelashes (while they have no clue that my lashes are frauded); and because I haven't seen methods like this on the forum before. Pics are also included, so don't you worry
Growing:
Latisse:
The absolute best way to grow eyelashes would be Latisse (bimatoprost), but please beware of the side effects and stop using it if you notice any. The only issue is actually getting your hands on it, as in most countries - it's prescription only. But if you DO manage to get your hands on it - excellent. Here's how to use it properly; side effects to consider and B&A's:
Best way to use Latisse is to apply it nightly for up to 16 weeks (4 months) with a sterile applicator, ensuring you remove the excess off any areas except for the lashes when you're done.
Most common side effects are irritation, eyelid redness, discoloration of the skin and burning of fat, so I'll make an emphasis on proper application of it. If you're scared for any changes to your physical eye area, stick to the other methods below. More severe, but also way more rare side effects could be eye infection (mostly due to contamination), iris pigmentation (very rare) and unwanted hair growth.Before & After using Latisse:

View attachment 3312127
Other Working Methods:
The best publicly-available products for eyelash growth are castor & rosemary oil or a peptide serum, but oral minoxidil can be used as well. Here's how to use them properly & other stuff you may wanna know:
For the oils & the serum, apply twice a day until you see sufficient growth. I was recommended this peptide serum, more info will obviously be on the manufacturer's website.
There aren't many side effects to worry about at all with these, if you experience any - it's most likely due to your skin complexion/application method, etc.
For the oral minoxidil (it is important that you use the oral one, as topical minox can irritate your eyes), take 2.5 to 5 milligrams per day for 4-6 months, or until your results are satisfactory, but I won’t recommend going for too long, as the longer you go - the more dependent your body becomes on it. There is no need to go above that dosage etiher, as it will not add any marginal benefit.
The side effects range from more common ones, like undesired hair growth and bloating all the way to more severe ones, such as cardiac issues due to increased water retention in the heart, but they are obviously way more rare, especially for healthy people.Befores & Afters:

Grooming:
Grooming is pretty simple; all you have to do is, depending on your PFL, trim 2-5mm of your upper lateral eyelashes for an improved perceived canthal tilt, as a lot of the eyelashes cover up your lateral canthus. Don't be worried, as they do grow back. Just, obviously, take repercussions while doing it to not cut yourself, and preferably use thin scissors.
Styling:
Things you need for styling:
- Eyelash Curler;
- Decently water-resistant Mascara (don't be scared, you will not gaymax if you follow the steps correctly);
- Tweezers;
- Eyebrow hold Gel;
- Cotton buds.
1.) Curling:
First off, curl your lashes up with the curler by holding it firmly closed on your upper eyelid, capturing most lashes, then pulling the curler up gently, while simultaneously, as gently, rotating it upwards for a few seconds;
2.) Shaping:
Take the tweezers and put some of the eyebrow gel onto them. Then, carefully pinch some upper lashes together, so that it looks like there's less lashes, but they're way thicker. Best way to do this is to pinch at the base of the lashes first, then at the top, so that they stick together well. Also try not to “spam-pinch” the lashes (a.e. do it to the point where they’re stuck together nicely and then move onto the next few) and try to not use too much gel to not damage them (which is unlikely anyways but you get the point). Then, simply repeat that for lower lashes as well. This will make them stand out way more, as the contrast is already getting higher just by doing that. Then, remove any excess gel with a wet cotton bud;
3.) Volumizing:
This is where mascara comes into play. Before we get into it, I would like to point some things out: 1 - I am aware that lash tinting exists. You can do that as well, but mascara has a big advantage to that: it's thick. It wraps around your lashes in a thick black coat, making them look way thicker, while also adding color to your invisible eyelashes, obviously making them visible (again, extra volume). 2 - You have to do this very carefully, so that you don't get caught wearing it. It's not that difficult to do, as long as you're aware of a few things: amount, excesses and chunks. I will also explain how to keep it very subtle, so that your eyelashes pass as natural. This is also like the highest extent of makeup I am personally willing to go to.
Before doing anything, make sure to remove any excess mascara "paste" off the applicator. Then, carefully bring the brush just under your upper lashes, and instead of using your hands to apply it - gently blink onto the brush, so that your lashes very lightly come into contact with the stuff. Afterwards, very lightly tap your lower lashes with the brush, ensuring you do not touch the skin at any stage of this, obviously. When that's done and the mascara is on your lashes, put your finger in between your lashes and lightly blink onto it, so that excess mascara and any chunks of it comes off and onto your finger, making your lashes look more natural (do not miss this step). After that, wash the mascara off your finger, and again, use a wet cotton bud to rub any excess mascara off your skin, if any got onto it.
This stuff is water but worth saying - While out, do not rub your eyes. Occasionally, check them with your phone camera in case any mascara has crumbled off and onto your undereye (never happened to me personally but better safe than sorry).
Also, obviously, the end results IRL look realms above the results on photos, so you won't find out the full potential of this method unless you actually try it.
So that's about it buddy boyos, hope you found this useful, tell me what you think, and best of luck slaying all the gigastacies in town

I apply minoxidil instead it’s fucking amazing in 2 month my lashes make *3

I saw this guide for performing ncr at home. Also btw do u think thumbpulling could help with facial symmetry.

potentially yeahI saw this guide for performing ncr at home. Also btw do u think thumbpulling could help with facial symmetry.
Neuro Cranial Restructuring (Full Guide)
Benefits Improved facial symmetry Improved cranial structure Improved posture Improved breathing and airway Less headaches and tightness To summarize: Use enough force when squeezing the bulb to feel expansion throughout one side of your face and into the other side. Once you feel expansion...

good point but ngl lashes dont make that much of a difference in perceived esr/es as hair or eyebrows unless you have this guy’s lashes
up to u man. my esr is also on the lower end of ideal, but trimming lashes didnt hurt it at all.
youre overthinking bro

Some of this stuff is known, so please don't flood the comments with "muh water"; I'm making this thread due to my own additions to the set of looksmaxes you could do to ascend your lashes, and for some other reasons I will state later on as well.

Want insane lashes similar to (or even better than) absolute gigaslayers such as Saafiir, Kater, Megamind (jfl) and many more? (no glaze, too lazy to find other examples)

Well this guide has you covered, so stick around and ascend.
I tried making this thread as concise and straight-to-the-point as possible, so here we go.
Eyelashes matter way more than some people think; from improving contrast, to frauding PFL, etc. - eyelashes go a very long way for such a small element of our face. They are way too easy to improve not to, and if you aren't doing what I am about to tell you, then you're really missing out. The reason I have decided to make this thread is partially due to the shear amount of compliments I get, besides everything else, for my eyelashes (while they have no clue that my lashes are frauded); and because I haven't seen methods like this on the forum before. Pics are also included, so don't you worry
Growing:
Latisse:
The absolute best way to grow eyelashes would be Latisse (bimatoprost), but please beware of the side effects and stop using it if you notice any. The only issue is actually getting your hands on it, as in most countries - it's prescription only. But if you DO manage to get your hands on it - excellent. Here's how to use it properly; side effects to consider and B&A's:
Best way to use Latisse is to apply it nightly for up to 16 weeks (4 months) with a sterile applicator, ensuring you remove the excess off any areas except for the lashes when you're done.
Most common side effects are irritation, eyelid redness, discoloration of the skin and burning of fat, so I'll make an emphasis on proper application of it. If you're scared for any changes to your physical eye area, stick to the other methods below. More severe, but also way more rare side effects could be eye infection (mostly due to contamination), iris pigmentation (very rare) and unwanted hair growth.Before & After using Latisse:

Other Working Methods:
The best publicly-available products for eyelash growth are castor & rosemary oil or a peptide serum, but oral minoxidil can be used as well. Here's how to use them properly & other stuff you may wanna know:
For the oils & the serum, apply twice a day until you see sufficient growth. I was recommended this peptide serum, more info will obviously be on the manufacturer's website.
There aren't many side effects to worry about at all with these, if you experience any - it's most likely due to your skin complexion/application method, etc.
For the oral minoxidil (it is important that you use the oral one, as topical minox can irritate your eyes), take 2.5 to 5 milligrams per day for 4-6 months, or until your results are satisfactory, but I won’t recommend going for too long, as the longer you go - the more dependent your body becomes on it. There is no need to go above that dosage etiher, as it will not add any marginal benefit.
The side effects range from more common ones, like undesired hair growth and bloating all the way to more severe ones, such as cardiac issues due to increased water retention in the heart, but they are obviously way more rare, especially for healthy people.Befores & Afters:

Grooming:
Grooming is pretty simple; all you have to do is, depending on your PFL, trim 2-5mm of your upper lateral eyelashes for an improved perceived canthal tilt, as a lot of the eyelashes cover up your lateral canthus. Don't be worried, as they do grow back. Just, obviously, take repercussions while doing it to not cut yourself, and preferably use thin scissors.
Styling:
Things you need for styling:
- Eyelash Curler;
- Decently water-resistant Mascara (don't be scared, you will not gaymax if you follow the steps correctly);
- Tweezers;
- Eyebrow hold Gel;
- Cotton buds.
1.) Curling:
First off, curl your lashes up with the curler by holding it firmly closed on your upper eyelid, capturing most lashes, then pulling the curler up gently, while simultaneously, as gently, rotating it upwards for a few seconds;
2.) Shaping:
Take the tweezers and put some of the eyebrow gel onto them. Then, carefully pinch some upper lashes together, so that it looks like there's less lashes, but they're way thicker. Best way to do this is to pinch at the base of the lashes first, then at the top, so that they stick together well. Also try not to “spam-pinch” the lashes (a.e. do it to the point where they’re stuck together nicely and then move onto the next few) and try to not use too much gel to not damage them (which is unlikely anyways but you get the point). Then, simply repeat that for lower lashes as well. This will make them stand out way more, as the contrast is already getting higher just by doing that. Then, remove any excess gel with a wet cotton bud;
3.) Volumizing:
This is where mascara comes into play. Before we get into it, I would like to point some things out: 1 - I am aware that lash tinting exists. You can do that as well, but mascara has a big advantage to that: it's thick. It wraps around your lashes in a thick black coat, making them look way thicker, while also adding color to your invisible eyelashes, obviously making them visible (again, extra volume). 2 - You have to do this very carefully, so that you don't get caught wearing it. It's not that difficult to do, as long as you're aware of a few things: amount, excesses and chunks. I will also explain how to keep it very subtle, so that your eyelashes pass as natural. This is also like the highest extent of makeup I am personally willing to go to.
Before doing anything, make sure to remove any excess mascara "paste" off the applicator. Then, carefully bring the brush just under your upper lashes, and instead of using your hands to apply it - gently blink onto the brush, so that your lashes very lightly come into contact with the stuff. Afterwards, very lightly tap your lower lashes with the brush, ensuring you do not touch the skin at any stage of this, obviously. When that's done and the mascara is on your lashes, put your finger in between your lashes and lightly blink onto it, so that excess mascara and any chunks of it comes off and onto your finger, making your lashes look more natural (do not miss this step). After that, wash the mascara off your finger, and again, use a wet cotton bud to rub any excess mascara off your skin, if any got onto it.
This stuff is water but worth saying - While out, do not rub your eyes. Occasionally, check them with your phone camera in case any mascara has crumbled off and onto your undereye (never happened to me personally but better safe than sorry).
Also, obviously, the end results IRL look realms above the results on photos, so you won't find out the full potential of this method unless you actually try it.
So that's about it buddy boyos, hope you found this useful, tell me what you think, and best of luck slaying all the gigastacies in town
I just used castor oil (I already have long lashes but not long enough) and in one week they grew a lot, even growing hair on the lower lashes which I never really had any hair there ever.
nah mascara wont do that
