Makeup Transformation: False Eyelashes Real Beauty

Posted by ChickAdvisor Team | Monday July 18, 2011

Mascara is an everyday staple for most women, there’s no denying that. But sometimes a little mascara and an eyelash curler just don’t cut it. False eyelashes, once reserved for Halloween costumes and dance recitals, have taken a turn for the better. Natural looking falsies are a quick way to transform from Pretty Betty (because there is no such thing as a Plain Jane) to red carpet ready. We tried out some falsies that work for a wedding, or prom, or dinner with the girls.

The rest of the office wasn't quite as skilled as Jenni at applying the falsies, so she became our guru. If you aren't as practiced either, we've got a tutorial to lend a hand.

Ali's blue eyes really pop with the addition of Quo false lashes. Ali's tip for falsies is to cut them in half. Not only does it become a two-sets-for-one, it also makes her lashes look more natural.

Alexandra's lashes are so long she barely needs her pair of Quo lashes, but they definitely add a little drama to her lashes. Time to practice that subtle wink I think.

Tasha too doesn't need the eyelashes to define her eyes, she rarely even wears mascara. But on a day when the rest of her makeup is natural, the Quo falsies definitely stand out.

Look at the difference these Quo lashes made. Tammy's eyelashes are out of this world. And by that we mean they're gorgeous, but also add volume, length and curl that mascara never could.

What do you think of the false eyelashes? Tell us in the comments below before July 27 and get entered to win a beauty prize.

I've found that using glue, and applying a few of the little bundles of 2-3 lashes looks more natural than slapping on a full pre-glued eyelid. They take some getting used to, but it's well worth the effort to get a chic and elegant look.
