False Lashes Haul - Some Women Buy Shoes, I Buy Lashes

So I recently decided I had too much money and thus had to spend some. Coincidently, my last Glossy Box had a 25% off online discount for Eylure in it. I could not pass up this opportunity. I don't wear false lashes that often, but I just want to own them all. They're just so pretty. Although, as a result of this purchase, I am making an effort to wear them more. Occasion appropriate my arse.

After receiving this through the post I realized I definitely have a type when it comes to lashes. This will become apparent as you scroll down.


First off are the 040 Underlashes. These retail at £4.95. I've been meaning to buy some false lower lashes for ages now and this seemed like the perfect opportunity.

These are a bit tricky to apply, but the band is nice and fine and they're pretty comfortable. I'd want to put a little shadow on the lower lash line to blend these in a bit, but otherwise I think they look damn cool.


Next are the 117 Lashes with extra sections for layering. I thought this was a really cool idea, as I love a fuller outer corner and I could also just wear the smaller sections for a more subtle look. These cost £9.45.

This is with one set of extra sections on.


And this is with both extra sections on the outer corner.


 No 117 Texture Lashes with all the sections on. Again, the bands are lightweight and comfortable, even when layered.


These are the 121 lashes that retail at £5.65.

The band on these is a little thicker, so thus a little harder to apply and little less comfortable. If you're new to lashes, try ones with a very fine band, I, however, am not new to lashes and find these fine to wear.


Next, the 153 lashes that sell for £5.25.

 I think these are my favourite. Impactful but still fluttery and pretty. I'm all about these.


To bring this symptom of consumerism to a close are the Charm lashes that sell for £5.25.

These are just slightly shorter versions of the 153 lashes, so I feel these would work for everyday quite nicely.

I've never been disappointed by Eylure lashes. They're reasonably priced, comfortable to wear, last quite well and there is a huge selection. Let's ignore the fact that I chose slightly different variations on the same thing - AT LEAST I KNOW I'LL WEAR THEM ALL. I used Duo Lash Glue to apply these, as it lasts longer than the glue provided.
