kre-at beauty Final Coat, $16 These kre-at beauty lashes are made in a criss-cross fashion to imitate how real lashes grow. Yes, they're high-end, but they're entirely worth the money because they look so real. (Remember, too, that if you remove and clean your lashes after every use, you can wear them again and again, so they get more and more worth the price tag with each wear.)

Nice tips, I'm enjoying Ardell's falsies for the moment, especially the lash accents, they just add a pretty, do-eyed effect!

I wish false eyelashes became as popular as they were in the 60s!

Sometimes I get them spot on, mostly I don't!

Really good tips shared :) However, it all depends on the glue that you get in your country. In my place here, the glue dries really fast, and I don't have to wait for it dry at all. The trickiest part of putting false lashes is to stick it near your own eyeslashes, but not on it.

Duo has TWO different formulas. One (the blue and white package) dries CLEAR. The other (pink and white) dries dark. Not completely black, but it dries more like a very dark black/brown. You can find either DUO formulas together where they sell Duo (at Sally's, Sephora, etc).
