When fake means beautiful

Posted by: Sylvia Giacinta In: Trivial Things| me

I’m serious about this.

Take a look at this..

Yes the photo is photoshopped. Don’t bitch.

Anyway, it was my first time using fake eyelashes! Bought a starter kit in Sasa, which I don’t recommend buying at all! It cost me 16.90 and it consists of one pair of falsies, glue, and eyelash applicator. But then! The eyelash applicator is only a piece of plastic folded into two and supposedly will help you hold the falsies. The eyelashes were made in Indonesia (HAHAHA OMG), and the glue is just so little. DON’T BUY. SERIOUSLY.

A view from the side (so you can really see the falsies)

Just as my hair, my eyelashes are straight, as in very very straight and very “weak”. As in, it always drops down. Nothing can help it. I’ve tried the eyelash curler, the conventional one and the battery-operated one with the heating base. Mascara, no matter how curvy the brush is, doesn’t really work either. What did work was I put on some mascara and curl it after that. I know it’s the wrong order, but it was the only thing that worked!

But anyway with my pretty falsies I can do more! And prettier!

So yes, fake means beautiful here.

Hi!

Thats seriously a waste of money. You would be better off getting the following if you’re keen on continuing with falsies.

1. Ardell Lash Glue (local) or Sherani Surgical Eyelash Glue (online purchase)
2. Sets of 10 lashes in a box. One Light for day and One Drama for evenings. Purchasable from Bugis Village. Everywhere you turn there they sell it.
3. A small eyelash curler (1/3 the width of usual eyelash curler to “kiap” ur natural and false ones together and curl them up so u won’t get the double lash prong look.

Good luck!
