False Eyelashes - a DO or a DON'T??

nikki , on January 24, 2011 at 10:27 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 52

I have wimpy, basically non-existent eyelashes & was thinking of trying false eyelashes for my wedding day. Is anyone else doing this? I would definitely want to try them several times before the actual day so does anyone have any brand suggestions??

Thanks Smiley smile

    My friend tried them on, well her hair stylist did them for her, and she LOVED them. She got the ones that stay on for 3 days, and she said when she goes back, her stylist told her about some that stay on for 2 weeks, and she is going to try those. I think as long as you try them ahead of time and think they look good, go for it!

    Oh I love falsies! Def try them out a few times first and on the day of your wedding try to put them on awhile before the ceremony so that by the time you get there you don't feel like you are wearing wings on your eyes Smiley smile And your eyes will look great for photos even if you cry all your mascara off.

    I love MAC and they sell DUO glue (make sure to get the black!) My favorite are the number 36 but go for something that look and feel the most natural to you.

    There was another topic on this yesterday. I think Sharon gets them.

    I have considered it because I am tired of my waterproof mascara ruining my eyelashes, but I haven't tried it yet.

    They are nice as long as they look natural.

    I had a few false eyelashes on the outsides, and they looked natural, but I loved the effect. Make sure you have a patch test with the glue for 24 hrs first though.

    Yes, if they are the individual eye lash ones that you can glue a the corner of your eye. Not the long ones.

    I had always thought a NO on eyelashes but just this weekend i got some put on me at Urban Decay and i LOVE them. They don't look gaudy or anything, I felt beautiful. They were only 15 dollars and come with excellent glue!

    I wore false lashes for my wedding and loved them.

    One of my bridesmaids wears false eyelashes EVERY DAY (no joke, she wears them everyday). She says she's tried all different brands (including expensive ones like MAC) and honestly thinks the ones she gets at CVS for $3-$4 are just as good. She also buys the black glue.

    I'd try them out a few times before the wedding and see which ones you like best. Depending on the look you are going for you can choose very natural looking ones (like # 109 or 110 in the pic) all the way up to a super dramatic look (like 115). I'd suggest slightly more natural look for your wedding tho!

    Sharon was talking about lash extension yesterday which are different. I've never worn normal flash lashes but the extensions look amazing and stay put for about 2 months!

    Omg, mac has the best false eye lashes. They have so many different options. If you go into the store and tell the what you want, like more natural or super dramatic, they will help you find the right ones. They are super easy to apply ans stay on forever as long as you put them on right. Oh, they will also sell you the glue, which is also great. I am definately going to wear them on my wedding day. They add glamour and make your eyes pop. I say go for it. Just make sure you try putting them on some time before the wedding so that you know how to put them on the day of =)

    I used 'halfies' (think Ardel 305 ish) and I loved them!

    I agree that DUO lash adhesive is the best!!

    Lash are one of those thing that you don't think about until you see them in pictures and use them for a special night...Not only do they make you look and feel prettier, they also show up really well in pictures and makes a difference to your make up...I would say its a MUST!

    I use falsies alot and I love them! They really bring out your eyes and makeup. I use the Ardell brand alot from target or when I visit the beauty supply I use Red cherry or wild cherry brand. They stay on all day even with a few wedding tears

    I've heard that the brand of lashes doesn't matter but MAC adhesive is the best, hands-down.
