    They often use mink for lash extensions and that's cruel :(

    Yes they do this lol.....they glue the lashes on your lashes and they fall out naturally with your lashes.

    Not accurate. The animals are all simply brushed and not inured :)

    Which kind did you get? I have a regular set now and don't love them since my fill so I am looking into getting curlies next time (a fresh set) The fill didn't impress me. If I keep doing this it will be for summer and vacations/special occasions. Or we will go broke! I think I will love the curlies, just a bit worried they may be too dramatic........

    I want eyelash extensions!! But I'm worried about your regular eyelashes falling out or getting damaged. :( I also want to try latise too, but I hear that can change your eye color. :( And I have green eyes :( Ugh lol...

    I got eye lash extensions recently. I got the 3 lashes on one lash and they looked really fake. The one last on one lash looks real and better.

    Personally I cannot apply those and I don't have the time to try anyway lol Extensions save a grip of time getting ready on the daily or even when you go out. But they are very expensive. :neutral:

    I heard Latisse can change the color of the skin around (under) your eyes.....I haven't heard of the actual eye color changing. And I think it is temporary. But I could be wrong. I do worry a bit about lash damage but if applied correctly it shouldn't happen, plus I have a friend who works for an eye MD and has Latisse samples to give me if I need it after lol

    The girl I use is really good. She travels around the world doing lashes :) She has done Kim Kardashian's. (barf, I know lol)

    I've never had extensions but I've had individual lashes and they pulled my own eyelashes out so I'm sticking with strips so much easier and takes 5 seconds to apply lol

    It makes your eyelashes fall out after?


    It shouldn't. Your natural lashes shed all the time. They fall out with the natural lash cycle.

    I heard that they weaken your actual lashes and cause some to fall out. :confused:
    Just get a good Mascara! Rimmel Volume Accelerator is great I love this stuff!!! :)
    I'm wearing two coats in this pic for a Special occasion, but usually one coat does great on an average day!
