Get them sis!!
If you're on the fence about these lashes, don't be!<br />First off, I'm a total newbie at lashes. I'm mediocre at best when it comes to makeup in general (we all start somewhere right?!). I always loved the look of false lashes but would mess up glue on lashes horribly, get mad and give up. I'd spend 15 minutes on one side before giving up and never thought I'd be able to do it. Magnetic lashes are VERY beginner friendly and I feel like learning with these will make glue on ones a LOT easier! I was completely shocked to have both sides done in only 5 minutes! The first time I've EVER successfully put on lashes has been with these magnetic ones. They're absolutely beautiful, soft, and they don't look so horribly fake its obvious. Just look at the difference they make in my photos! I'm wearing the third most dramatic in these pictures, so the third one up from the bottom. They hold up REALLY well too, I've been able to wear them for a full day without even a little bit of lifting or moving. And I have two small kiddos that LOVE grabbing at my face, so something that wouldn't pull off easily was definitely a concern of mine. Much to my surprise, these babies even stayed put during *erm* bedroom shenanigans. They hold up great and come off easy, it doesn't hurt at all! They're very comfortable and lightweight, put then on right and you'll hardly notice them. I forgot I had a pair on yesterday!<br /><br />The eyeliner is definitely water proof, do NOT skip out on makeup remover when taking it off or you're gonna be scrubbing at your eyes forever, regular soaps and cleansers have not worked for me. Ive had the most luck with actually makeup remover and coconut oil. It's VERY black, probably the blackest eyeliner I own now. Something I'm not a fan of, there's a very obvious iron smell when you're putting it on, that'd be from the iron oxide that makes it magnetic. The smell goes away as it dries, but it's not all that great of a smell lmao. It's also a little goopier and not as runny as I'm used to with liquid eyeliner. It's not so bad you can't get it on easily, but just not quiet as "liquidy" as any other liquid liner I've used and can see this drying out quickly, maybe that's why they send two tubes? If you get any of it on your natural lashes, make a point of cleaning it off before it dries. I had a few magnets trying to stick to my eye lashes instead of my lash line the first attempt because of this.<br /><br />Make sure you let the eyeliner dry COMPLETELY before putting on any lashes. If you need to readjust the placement and the eyeliner isn't fully dried, it's gonna stick to the lashes when you try to adjust it and then you're back to square one of needing to put on liner first, AND you'll be picking the eyeliner off of the magnets. Cleaning the lashes is easier if you let the eyeliner dry first, there's much less to pick off, if you need to at all. So I'd recommend doing eye makeup as the first step to give the liner adequate time to dry, since lashes are the final step in makeup. Also, the application tool is magnetic too.<br /><br />The ONLY thing that kinda sucks, there's no better way to store them. The box they come in is it, and while the biz has magnetic strips so you can store then and they'll keep their shape, I wish it was more sturdy than flimsy plastic. Keep the box it comes in if you're worried about storage, the box is better than keeping them out in a flimsy plastic holder. That's my reasoning for the 4 stars, everything is perfect but the storage could be a bit better. I absolutely love that these are reusable, and for the price this is a TOTAL win. My only regret? NOT BUYING THEM SOONER! 💕 I'm definitely gonna come back for a second set of these when these ones have reached their last days!
