After yesterday's mammoth post, today's post, bringing DupeWeekTM to an end ;-) is short and sweet..
Essence Cherry Blossom Girl paper lashes
How utterly gorgeous are these? Essence's latest collection, called Cherry Blossom Girl, features a bunch of soft reds and corals and these gorgeous eyelashes.
Remember Paperself lashes? Equally gorgeous (I purchase from asos.com) for very special events, but at around €18, expensive for lashes that can be re-used, but only if you're very very careful.
These manage to be pretty and delicate and glamorous and intricate and dramatic all at once.
The Essence offering is €2.49 as I recall. Whereas the Paperself lashes come in a number of designs, this is the only one offered by Essence, and only for the duration of this collection (of course, at that price, I purchased a few!)
How to fit: the same way as normal strip lashes...
Essence Paper Lashes - cuuuuuuuute! |
- Cut to size
- Add some lash glue
- Wait about thirty seconds (until it's slightly tacky)
- Close your eye
- With tweezers (or fingers!) place the centre of the strip lash on the centre of your lash line
- Tuck in the band at the inner corner of your eye
- Tuck in the band at the outer corner of your eye
- That's it, you're done!
To re-use, remove gently from your lash line, and then carefully pick the glue from the band. I'm looking forward to wearing these out...
