Lashings of Love

False eyelashes can conjure up images of drag queens, glamour models and sixties groupies. However, they are becoming more and more popular in the beauty world with the development of in-salon extensions and at- home kits, that provide natural and gorgeous lash enhancements. I recently trialled the Ardell DuraLash Naturals (rrp: $8.50) in black. They provide individual lashes which you can attach at home, will last up to four weeks and are super easy to apply. You can add as little drama to your look as you wish; I started with 3 individuals applied on the upper lash-line from the outside corner, which is what I would recommend to keep them looking subtle. I would advise adding some mascara to your natural eyelashes, so that they blend in better with the extensions; 3-4 lashes on each eye are probably all you need to get some impact!

Ardell advise using their eyelash adhesive, LashTite, which comes out crystal clear, it is also designed to last for a couple of weeks so very durable. Individual falsies are the perfect way to enhance your eyes and offer a chic way of prettying-up your make-up look.
