QUICKED COOL: FANTASTIC FALSIES
LASHES:Last summer I bought a Groupon for lash extensions. I always like to try things that know one I know of has just to be the guinea pig. Why not right? Well, when is comes to beautification inventions my Hollywood bestie has usually tried them first. So, I had seen the greatness of lash extensions on her first. Verdict: They take forever to get put on, but it's fairly relaxing. Once on- they look and feel fab.
However, (sad face) without an endless supply of Groupons they can be expensive ($80 a pop plus tip) AND the worst part for someone like me who cannot keep them up is that they can also do a number on your real lashes as they start to fall off! SO... since mascara is basically the only MUST HAVE in my beauty routine, I returned to looking for an answer to long lashes that goes beyond mascara. I FOUND IT!! Here is a great video that helped me understand them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GV9pVOWeN0E
I will post some pics of mine as well, but I basically wear them everyday (they can last for up to three, even in the shower) and they cost $30- so last about two months in my case. Much better deal and they dont pull out your real lashes when they come off!! SCORE.
NAILS:
Another favorite "falsie" of mine are nail stickers. My nails are pretty bendable and don't get very long. A regular ol' manicure will last MAYBE a few days before chipping. Because stickers bend and stretch with your nail, they stay at least a week on me! And what is more fun then some fancy designs. I try to find the more muted ones so that they are still professional and not overwhelming. They are super easy to put on but are a but pricey, so I don't wear them all the time. Just when I am getting tired of my favorite clear polish ;).
I have been using L'Oreal brand and they run about $8 a pair, cheaper then most manicures and for me, they last longer too. Here is an extensive list courtesy of Cosmo with other brands to try.
Enjoy!
