Falsie Favorites
Photo by Nicholas Robson
I wear false lashes every day. Yes, you heard me correctly. Every. Day.
I didn't used to wear falsies all the time. I used to wear them only for special occasions, nights out with my friends, or any time I just wanted to feel fancy, but as soon as I got lash extensions, my whole world changed.
I kept up with my lash extensions for a few months, but soon the commitment became a little too much for me. I loved how I looked with the long luxurious lashes every day, but a part of me missed having the flexibility of being able to switch up how I looked when I used different styles of strip lashes. After all of my lash extensions fell out, I became disappointed at how my eye makeup look just didn't seem finished without longer lashes.
I started buying a few different brands and styles of lashes, trying to find the ones that worked best for me and my eye shape, also taking into account how many times that I would be reusing the lashes since I'd be looking for something I could wear every day.
Here's a list of three of my favorite lash brands...all have lasted me probably 20 wears per lash and the price points are pretty great.
NOTE: The good old standby Ardell isn't on my list, but it's my favorite brand to use for wedding party makeup. I don't think the Ardell lashes hold up well after one or two uses, but they look really natural and pretty when they are on. My favorites are the Wispies.
