DIY Double eyelids : Double sided tape vs Eyelid glue

Most of the people whom are close to me should know by now that i am born with double eyelids. However, my double eyelids are uneven on both side of my eyes and they are not prominent and deep. I wasn't aware of it until a makeup artist started placing double eyelid tape on me when she did the makeup on me. And i realise having a deeper and more prominent eyelid really does make one eyes look bigger.
There are many ways to achieve double eyelids. Permanent way of achieving it would be having plastic surgery or temporary ways such as using double sided tape or eyelid glue.
Therefore today i shall review about the temporary ways and how they differ from one another, as well as how to achieve double eyelids.

Step 1:  Place the double sided eyelid tape or eyelid glue right above your natural eyelids or even higher for a prominent double eyelid.

Step 2: Use the fork provided in the package for the tape or glue and press against the tape or glue to form the double eyelids.

Differences and impression: As you can see in picture 3, both ways are able to achieve the effect. However, at times the eyelid tape is visible and crumples too. Also, it can be quite painful at time when removing it. As for the eyelid glue, i love it as it is invisible, it looks much more natural  and it does not irritate my skin. However, when i use a makeup remover i am not sure whether i was able to completely remove the glue as it was invisible. But comparing to both methods, i would definitely opt for the glue rather than the tape although its costs slight more. Both products can be purchased at SASA.
