FALSE LASHES!!!!

Ok so false lashes have been something I had never considered before, unless I was trying to come up with some trickie Halloween costume! However, as I have been watching tutorial videos more and more, I notice that nice and full eyelashes make a complete difference on a makeup look!

According to a Covergil survey, 50% of women would choose mascara if they could only pick one make up product! It's a big deal.

Now, I don't find extravagant, extreme long and full lashes attractive. The closer to natural lashes the look of them, the better for me.

So below I have found this brand (sorry the box is empty because the lashes are on my eyes!). The price range goes from $3.79 - $5.49 and you can get them online as well for less than $3.00 (I just purchase a 4-pack from Amazon for $11.96). Also, they do not come with glue so you need to buy that separately.


Of course there are tons of other products out there, but this way seems to do the trick for me.

The pictures below are my eyes with and without lashes:

Without false lashes (only black mascara)

 

Quite a difference huh?

Well everything seems nice and easy, however, applying these puppies require lots of practice (which I have been doing by the way). Several times I had to give up on them because I had run out of time. I have been putting my makeup on in the morning before I leave for work and just like yesterday, I had to peel them off because I hadn't place them correctly and it looked super artificial. I guess once you get the hang of it, it gets much easier.

What do you think?

Pri, i love it but i can´t put in my lashes. Agora em português... a cantora Adele é adepta dos cilios postiços, acho charme mas e paciência para colocar e tirar depois???
