Semi Permanent Eye Lashes

Has anyone had these done? I'm very tempted to book an appointment to get some but before I fork out forty quid I want to make sure that they are worth it.

How long do they last? Do they look nice? I want lovely long eyelashes Twiggy style! No mascara works and I'm rubbish with false lashes

TIA

They are good.

They dont do as much as strip lashes, but that's a bit the point, they are natural looking (but still add length, thickness, and colour depth to your lashes)

If you sleep with an eye mask that can be a problem for them, as they get mashed. Not many people do but my husband gets up early to go to work and it means he can put a light on without disturbing me

If you like to hot cloth cleanse, and really get all nice and oily and give your makeup a nice rub off with a muslin or whatever, you'd have to change that. You can't put any oil on them, so you need to keep moisturiser away from them, get some oil free eye makeup remover and cotton buds and sort of gently remove your makeup with that, etc. You will need to get an oil free mascara too so you can't necessarily use your favourite lash building stuff on them.

Apart from that, they are great and may be just what you are looking for.

Had them done for holiday last year. Really looked after them with the special gel and comb. Changed my cleansing routine (as above) to totally oil free. They looked and felt lovely and lasted 4 weeks.

Had them done after Xmas for a special "do". With the same care, they dropped out after 4 days....every one.

Expensive but lovely!!

Think I am definitely going to get it done now!.
