False lashes?

Over the past few years I have done many brides and the big debate is whether or not they should wear false lashes. I say YES! There are many pros, hardly any cons and I have answers to the most frequently asked questions. Lashes are a great way to add glamour to a wedding day look. They are painless to apply, inexpensive and last all night! One of the greatest part about wearing lashes is that it makes your eyes really stand out in pictures (and you will feel extra sexy).

Brides always want to know….
Do they hurt or will they irritate my eyes? No. They take only minutes to apply and for the glue to dry. For a few minutes it will feel odd having a foreign object on your lash line, but not long after application you will be used to them and not even remember they are there.
Will they fall off? No. I use a special glue that keeps them in place for more than 12 hours. Many brides have told me that they are still on the following morning (and still look great).
Will they look fake? No way. I have a special technique to apply them, making them look completely natural.
How do they come off? Put some eye makeup remover on a cotton ball and set on eye for 30-60 seconds.This will loosen the glue and make them come off easy.
How do I pick lashes that are right for me? They range from natural to dramatic, so it depends on what kind of look you are going for. If you want a bold look, pick ones that are jet black and and more lashes (close together) on the strip. If you want a natural look, choose ones that are less course and have larger spaces in between each lash.
Do I have to spend a lot of money on them? They range from $3-$20 dollars. MAC cosmetics has beautiful high quality lashes and a wide variety. You can also go to your local drug store and find many for a fraction of the price.

So if you are still debating whether or not to wear false lashes on your wedding day, talk to your makeup artist. Book a trial and ask to do the lashes then. I guarantee that you will love it!
