Marrakech – Yes, we’re talking about you. And yes, you can do your lashes at home.

From budget DIYs to pro-looking curls, we’ve got the guide to help you bat those lashes like you paid top dirham for them, even if you didn’t leave the house.

Know your lash goal

Are you going for a lash lift, natural curl, or full-on falsie glam?

  • Lifted & tinted: You’ll need a DIY lash lift kit (the ones all over TikTok with names like “Lash Bomb” or “YUMI dupe”)

  • Curled & glossy: Just a reliable lash curler and a bomb mascara will do

  • Full & fluffy: Bring out the strip lashes or try magnetic ones if glue gives you trust issues

Choose your fighter before you start. Commitment is key.

Clean that canvas

Oil, mascara residue, or even leftover eye cream can ruin the whole process.
 Use micellar water or a lash-safe cleanser. You want your lashes clean, dry, and ready for action.

Think of it as skincare, but for your lashes.

The lash lift

Lash lift kits come with mini tools that look suspiciously like dental gear, but don’t panic.

  • Stick the silicon pads on your eyelids (yes, it feels weird)

  • Use the “glue” to push lashes upward, then apply the perming solution

  • Wait 10-12 minutes, then apply setting lotion

  • Optional but iconic: Apply tint for that I woke up like this look

Set a timer. Watch a reel. Don’t fall asleep mid-lift; timing is everything.

For the simplicity queens

If you’re skipping lifts, you can still fake a lash day:

  • Heat up your curler slightly (use your hairdryer for 3 seconds)

  • Curl gently from the base, hold for 5–10 seconds

  • Apply mascara: Root to tip, and don’t pump the wand, twirl it instead

  • For a lash extension look, layer a lengthening mascara, then a volumizing one

  • Use a clean spoolie to separate if it clumps, don’t panic, just brush

Falsies without the fuss

Feeling bold? Go for strip lashes.

  • Trim the band to fit your eye

  • Use black lash glue, not white (unless you love chaos)

  • Apply glue, wait 30 seconds, then place

  • Press with tweezers, blink dramatically, and go

Bonus: Magnetic lashes if you want zero mess and zero commitment. A win for lazy glam.

You look amazing!

You don’t need a lash tech to feel put together. Whether it’s a 15-minute lift or a mascara-only moment, doing your lashes at home is oddly empowering. A little shaky, a little messy, but very worth it.

Because sometimes, the best beauty rituals aren’t done in salons, they’re done at midnight, in pajamas, with Beyoncé playing softly in the background.

Now go, blink with confidence.
