Gently remove the flare lashes from the packaging, being careful not to damage them.
Arrange Flare Lash Ribbons:
Lay out a piece of tape or a non-sticky surface.
Carefully arrange the individual flare lashes in a ribbon-like pattern, slightly overlapping the bases to create the ribbon effect.
Use a small piece of tape at each end to hold the flare lashes together temporarily.
Apply Adhesive:
Squeeze a small amount of lash adhesive onto a clean surface or the back of your hand.
Gently press the base of the flare lash ribbon onto the adhesive to secure it.
Attach the Flare Lash Ribbon:
Hold the flare lash ribbon close to your natural lash line and gently press the adhesive end onto your natural lashes, avoiding contact with your skin.
Use tweezers to adjust the placement and ensure the flare lash ribbon is secure.
Curing Time:
Depending on the adhesive, there might be a recommended curing time before you can get the extensions wet or apply makeup.
Finishing Touches:
Once the adhesive is fully cured, gently brush through your new extensions with a clean mascara wand to blend them with your natural lashes.
Avoid rubbing or tugging your eyes.

If you're not experienced in applying lash extensions, consider seeking professional guidance or training before attempting it on your own.
