Best place for false eyelashes

All my lovely long lashes are going to fall out very soon (chemo, yay!) and I'm looking for falsies that are easy to apply and look natural.

Which ones are good and won't make me look like a spider's died on my lids.

don't know much about them but what about lash inserts done professionally?

hope chemo goes o.k.

I think they have to be stuck onto extant lashes, rather than them being stuck onto the skin.

oh bugger.

you could just totally rock the falsie look with a pair of these

LOL! & thank you for you good wishes as well.

I think what with the bald head and badly drawn on eyebrows I'd look like an alien and scare the kids!

My mum's eyelashes didn't fall out. Have you had chemo before? Hope all goes well.

I'm halfway through my programme and have switched to a diff sort. i've still got some hair, eyebrows and lashes but apparently this stuff (Taxol) will get rid. What chemo did your mum have?

I'm not sure. She used the ice cap though, no idea if that 'helped'.

I'm not ice capping. Hate the cold. bbrrrrrrrr.

I don't think it was very fun. Mum is stubborn though! Some of her hair did come out, but now it's grown back the colour and condition is much better.

yy several friends who lost their hair with chemo have had theirs grow back really thick and wavy. absolutely gorgeous.
