HELP! False eyelashes that will last for a holiday abroad - do they exist?

6 replies

TortugaRumCakeQueen · 31/05/2022 13:12

I have never had false lashes applied by a professional. Only ever done stick on ones at home, which you remove before bed.

Are there any lashes that would last for a few weeks when I'm on holiday? I like the idea of not faffing with mascara and lashes looking good 24/7. If they do exist, would they ruin my real lashes?

TIA

What about a lash lift? I have tinted my eyelashes at home before but having a lash lift and tint next week. I have had eyelashes applied by a professional (it was a student actually so free) and would have it done for a special occasion or holiday. Is there any training salons near you?

I have had a lash lift before (a few months ago), but it didn't last very long, and then weirdly, my lashes all started growing in the opposite directions! It also didn't give the fuller look that I'm wanting. Thanks for the suggestion though!

You could get eyelash extensions. They’re a bit pricey but should look good for 2-3 weeks. Then you can have them removed or refilled. I have had them done for holidays and my wedding and you can get everything from a more natural look to full on volume.

@Amelion can I ask, does that damage your own lashes?

They shouldn’t do as long as you remove them properly (pay for the salon to do it, don’t try and pick them off!). I’ve had them a few times and not had any problems. I don’t know about if you use them long term if they cause problems though.

@Amelion Thank you, I will look in to this!!
