Beauty Trend – Lush Lashes17Aug09

You see long, luscious eyelashes everywhere and no matter what mascara you indulge in you never seem to get lashes that are as full as the models in the advertisements. No need to worry, you can have the dramatic sexy look simply by investing in some false lashes. They are a beautiful creation, cheap if you know where to get them, and very easy to apply. Of course, you can find a salon that adds indivdual lashes, but that tends to take some serious time, thin out in a short matter of time, and is just one extra expense added every week. Falsies cost almost nothing and with proper care they can be reused until it is time to buy another pack.
We’ve found a great source with lash packs starting as low as $1.00. That’s really a price you cannot beat especially if you are applying them everyday. It’s as simple as brushing your teeth and now almost cheaper.

To really finish the look you may even want to invest in a good liquid liner or smudgepot just to go over the upper lash line.

Use a pencil eyeliner for the bottom and to finish the look your favorite mascara. It is a very simple and natural look that will put more emphasis on your eyes.
