The first time I ever wore fake eyelashes to a party, they were expertly applied by the makeup professionals at the department store counter. When I received lashes to do a review from two companies, Lash Addiction and Xtended Beauty, I wondered if I would be able to get them on by myself without gluing lashes to my eyeball. Although, if I did, then i would be able to give people the hairy eyeball. get it?

Ahem. Anyway, I surveyed the dizzying array of lashes generously provided by the two companies, each set named for the type of woman into whom you will inevitably be transformed. They had names like Dazzler, Play Thing, and Hottie. I skipped over the Lolita and decided to try out Sweet Pea for my luxe lash debut at a recent party. I hit the grocery store as a Goddess, and was a Debutante in the car line. It was fun. I had people comment about how great I looked and I feel I looked years younger when I was wearing my lashes.

After a little practice, applying the lashes took no more time for me than applying mascara. In my typical fashion, I scoured the web to make sure I knew every tip and trick of the trade, and was amazed at the sheer number of how-to videos about applying lashes on YouTube. I tried out many different lash techniques and ultimately found what worked best for me, If you want to watch women the world over apply lashes, head over there and start watching.
