Any one had them and think that they are good ?
Is the upkeep a faff ?
Thanks

I loved how they looked but mine needed redoing every week really to keep them looking their best. I found it impossible to remove eye make up without losing a few too. I've never had them again. I find a good quality eyelash curler and good mascara much better unless it's for a one off event.

I have them done. I've had them topped up every 2 weeks for over 2 years. I love them. My own lashes are really short so it saves me a lot of time having extensions rather than trying to get them to look good with mascara and curlers...

It really varies in cost but semi permanent lashes are usually around £40 for the initial set and £20-25 for infills which you need every 2 weeks.
What are your natural lashes like?

Ah.. My friend is a beautician and she does both my lashes and Shellac for £30.. Sorry, no idea the going rate but do know it's much more expensive than that..

I love mine. Get them done every 4 weeks. Try I have a break of 2/3 months every so often, and have had them on for years now. £40 for a fresh new set, £20/25 for top ups.

I found it took a couple of visits to get used to them. Got out of the habit of rubbing my eyes. A quick brush through and that's that.

My natural lashes are quite long .as I'm getting older they seem more spidery / thin .im looking for more youthful thick lush lashes !!
