   You could also use a black eyeliner pencil and draw dashes on your top lash line very close to the lashes.
   
   Then, take a small eyeliner brush, and use it to smudge the liner., You could always add individual lash clusters in the corners of your eyes if you want a more subtle look.
   
   Try using individual eyelashes so it looks more natural.
   
   Curl your own eyelashes first, and then apply the single lashes one-by-one.You will want to apply a drop of eyelash glue on the back of your hand.
