Opinions, please? :3 (False Eyelashes)
Post By JVCA. 14/09/10, 12:27 am
So, I'm horrible at making decisions, and need some input. |D I'm looking for some fake eyelashes for Elizabeth, and I've narrowed it down - but I've never used false eyelashes before so I have no idea what looks good and what doesn't. Hence, I'm asking you guys which of these pairs I should buy. Very Happy

Reference:


You can see that her eyelashes are long on the outer ends, but not particularly so in the inner ends - so whilst none of these pairs does EXACTLY what hers does (lol, one long eyelash? |D), imo, they made good 'realistic' interpretations of what her eyelashes do.

BUT - which pair looks nicest? orz

B-10
B-7
B-11

I thiiiink I'm leaning towards B-7? But I want more opinions 'coz I'm too indecisive. >.< Thanks guys!

I think the B-7 lashes are the best for what you want

*nods towards B7*

I wore fake lashes when I was Dratini, it really makes your eyes stand out more. I'm getting some for this Auckgeddon too. But yeah they can be hard to stick on, so practise first before wearing them with your cosplay. If you are careful with the lashes you'll be able to reuse them too~ Very Happy

b7 looks like a winnar!


False lashes are the bane of my existence, but I do agree that they make your eyes appear larger and defined.

Yay, B7 I shall get! Thanks guus. Very Happy (I'll buy a spare pair in case I damage them in my make-up trial). How are you supposed to remove them anyway?

@Rikku: With false eyelashes you use mascara as well to help blend the lashes in with your normal eyes. :3

You just peel them off, and pull the glue off. Oh and when you put them on wait for the glue to dry a little bit so it's tacky when you put them on so that if you blink they won't just fall off because of 'wet' glue.

And you know you can get fake lashes that you put on one by one? It takes so long! T_T

I remember the $3 Japan shop up on Queens St sells fake eyelashes too. If you have some time you might want to check them out as well. ;D

These would probably work well for just practicing the art of putting on fake eyelashes. /nods, end of useless input >>

Even though this advice is pretty late >.>; Here's another tip incase those lashes don't work for some reason?

If you just want the outer corner/section of your eye to have long eyelashes, what I do is buy some fake eyelashes and cut them in half, keeping the longer half of the lashes to stick on. (example spoiler below)
