WHAT TO WEAR ON A FIRST DATE

I’ve been on my fair share of first dates (aye, single women, you feel me!). Aside from matching with or being set up with someone (however you meet your potential s/o), committing to meet up for a first date is typically the hardest part—coordinating schedules, picking the right location, etc. Deciding what to wear should be a breeze.

Instead of putting unnecessary pressure on myself combing through my closet 30 minutes before my date, I always wear the same outfit combination on nearly every date. For me, I feel most confident in leggings (right now, these a.n.a High Waisted from JC Penney), a basic tank or bodysuit, and heels (heeled boots count too). If it’s chilly, I’ll throw a jacket over my shoulders. This combo is what works for me and is appropriate for pretty much any outing (coffee/drinks/dinner). But find what works for you and makes you feel your best. Moral of the story: to ease your wardrobe decisions for your next first date, don’t overcomplicate it, keep it simple, and reach for an outfit combination that always makes you feel fire.

Help! How Do I Remove Eyelash Glue From My Lashes?

Falsies are a girl’s best friend — bring on the volume and length. But if sticky eyelash glue gets stuck to your real lashes, it’s game over. The buildup and tackiness can make reapplication nearly impossible and cause unwanted irritation. To ensure that our false lashes can be used more than once and our real lashes stay healthy, it’s important to keep ’em clean. For some advice on the best way to do so, scroll down and enjoy!

Tip #1: Use Less Glue From the Start

To prevent a buildup of gunk and glue on your lashes at the end of the day, try to use as little glue as possible during application. My best tip is not to apply too much glue on the false lash to begin with. Think you may have gone too heavy with your glue? Recommended wiping it off and starting from scratch. Not only will this make it easier for you to take off your falsies at the end of the day, but it’s also a way to ensure that too much glue doesn’t get on or around your eyes.

PRIMP TIP: Apply Lash Couture Strip Lash Adhesive on the eyelids like an eyeliner then apply your favorite pair of lashes. Its easier and quicker to apply the lashes plus it is just less messier overall. Lee wished she came up with this brilliant beauty trick but she actually received it from Raye Boyce.

Tip #2: Don’t Pull Them Off 

Time to take off your lashes for the day? Don’t start pulling them off, tugging or scrubbing. You won’t get all the glue off your lashes, and you risk getting glue in your eyes. What’s worse? You’re going to end up ripping your own lashes. 

Tip #3: Use a Gentle Eye Makeup Cleanser

Instead, to get your fake lashes and glue off cleanly, Lee recommends using a soft and gentle eye makeup remover. For years I’ve been using the Lancôme Bi Facil Double Action Eye Makeup Remover; it’s the best for getting rid of lash glue. Just pour some onto a cotton pad and dab it over your lashes until the strip falls off cleanly. Plus, you can also use the product to clean glue off your falsies so they’re good as new for reapplication.
