I've mentioned this company before in one of my posts (Lashing Out). A few years ago I discovered a fan-tastic affordable false eyelash company called Model21 Eyelashes. These are the only lashes I wear, I can'lt say enough good things about this company. Drug store eyelashes can run you anywhere from $3.99 to over $20 for one pair. I've tried over five brands of lashes and they all seemed to be reusable with the proper care.
I was sent a sampler pack of lashes from this company several months ago for review but due to my busy school schedule, I'm finally just now getting around to it. My sampler pack came with a nice variety, 5 different lengths and styles. I'm pretty comfortable wearing longer, more dramatic lashes, I think it's part of the fun of makeup. That is, once you get past caring whether or not people know you're wearing them. I got pas that a long time ago and made wearing lashes a fun experience.
I will admit that it will take some practice to properly learn how to apply lashes but that is no reflection on the lashes. I first started wearing individual lashes which was a big mistake. I personally think these are more difficult to manipulate. A full lash strip can be easier to put on and remove. I watched plenty of tutorials and kept at it and now it only takes all of 5 minutes to have a beautiful set of dark, luscious lashes. And at less than $1 a pair for reusable lashes, it's a no-brainer to complete your makeup look.
I think one of the really cool things about Model21 lashes is that they always have free shipping with the purchase of three boxes (which contain 10 pair) and a free box with the purchase of 4 boxes or more. I just haven't seen this anywhere else. This is a great deal considering the quality. I love the black lash line that you put the glue on, it can double as eyeliner. What a great idea.
The lashes I received for review were the following style numbers: 2T, 40T, 19T, 63, 3T. They were all different variations f the criss-cross style lashes. This gives your lashes a more natural appearance instead of all the lashes going in the same direction. The lashes come in a strip that's nice and long so you can trim them to your own size. You can even cut them in half and get 20 lashes out of each box!
I should also point out that these lashes are cruelty free. I'm learning more about this topic thanks to my
cousin Liza (makeupmattersbylnc.blogspot.com).
