Lesson 1Selection strategy for which natural lashes to extend and how to fill outer-corner gaps safelyBuild a safe selection plan for which natural lashes to extend, how many to leave bare, and how to close outer-corner gaps without overloading weak lashes, ensuring a flattering, stable, and age-appropriate result for daily wear.
