Beastly Beauty: Fly-Legged Falsies

Posted by Nikki | Tuesday August 10, 201035 comments
One of the creepiest beauty innovations we’ve seen in a while - fly leg eyelashes. Yes.  Real fly legs that attach to your eyelid.

While grotesquely fascinated by the idea, our first thoughts were:

(1) this can’t be sanitary

(2) they don’t even look attractive

(3) Why do the fly legs have to be real? Faux fly legs may have been a better idea (and only as a Halloween accessory at that).

The Fly-Lash was designed by a young British artist, Jessica Harrison, who had the desire to design her very own set of fake lashes made entirely out of fly’s legs.

Jessica, we give you points for creativity, but we just can’t imagine anyone trying these!

Your thoughts?

I think this is about as safe as women who perm their eyelashes. No thanks!

This is absolutely disgusting not to mention unhygenic, flies carry diseases and anyone using these things should have their heads examined.

I think this is the grossest beauty idea I've seen! The picture was enough for me, I didn't dare watch the video!

I saw the link to the youtube video as well, but it didn't work when I tried to watch it. I'm now very thankful!

I know of the link but haven't had the stomach to check it out!

That's what I'd fail on that old show "fear factor" - the gross stuff. Heights, water, etc are no biggie.
