Still envious of others' captivating double eyelids? It's simple—double eyelid tape can effortlessly create beautiful double eyelids for you. Here's a natural and affordable method to achieve them, plus a guide for beginners on how to use double eyelid tape!
Essential: Chenxin Magic Invisible Eyelid Tape / Double Eyelid Tape Price: NT$59/20 strips
It's really affordable.Compared to similar products, MEZAIK strips cost over NT$200, and KOJI is also pricier. This product is budget-friendly without compromising on results.
Appearance of the invisible eyelid tape
Most double eyelid tapes work similarly: insert the strong adhesive strip into the plastic applicator shown above. Then, as demonstrated below, pull the strip evenly from the center cut to both sides until it matches your desired double eyelid width.Note: The optimal time to apply double eyelid tape is immediately after cleansing your face when your skin is completely bare. This allows the adhesive to bond effectively. If you've applied skincare products, oily residues on your eyelids will compromise adhesion!
Align the double eyelid tape directly with your desired eyelid width, then apply it to your eyelid. Remember to pull the tape slightly taut—not too tight to avoid creasing the eyelid, but not too loose to ensure effectiveness.Don't be too greedy—if you stick it too wide, the effect will look unnatural. Also, make sure both eyes are stuck equally, or you'll end up with uneven eyes.
Effect after sticking
Note: Once applied, you cannot peel it off and reapply it. Its adhesive only works the first time; peeling it off will render it completely useless.(Fortunately, they're affordable, so it's no big deal if they get ruined.)
Applying eye makeup over these is much smoother than with double-eyelid tape—eyeshadow glides on effortlessly. Removal is also incredibly easy: just massage with makeup remover oil or milk each night, and they come right off. However, they only last for one day.
