Review (3/5): Great IF need quick application, need to last no more than couple hrs, & only need couple uses
I got the style “A201.” I have really small, really hooded, and downturned eyes. With such small, hooded eyes, a lot of full lashes can end up poking me in my inner corner. I like the inner corner of the lashes to be shorter. Somehow, I missed seeing that the inner corner of the “A201” style was the same length as the outer corner. I also like the outer corner to be longer and lifted to give my eye a more lifted look. While the “A201l style isn’t bad, it isn’t as good as “A202” would have been. I’m not sure how I picked so wrong 😂 I think I just saw the “A201” style looked more natural and “A202” looked darker/thicker/fuller, so I went with the more natural looking ones? No clue! I’m usually so picky when choosing lashes and so particular, I don’t know how I missed that! But, “A201” worked well enough.
I liked the idea of self adhesive lashes. No glue, no magnetic liner, no magnets. Just pop them on and be done! Easy peasy! I had a feeling they weren’t going to stick to well, but figured they were worth a try because…..”WHAT IF THEY DID?! Wouldn’t that be something?!”
They did stick….but not for long. These are perfect for anyone who only needs the lashes to feel secure for no more than a couple hours, after that, they start lifting and feeling like they’ll fall off at any moment. You get 4 pairs for $14.99 (currently down from regular price of $16.99), that is $3.75 (or $4.25 at regular price) per pair. Not too bad. At that price, some might not mind them only feeling secure for a short while. Like if you’re someone who does makeup looks on Instagram/TikTok/YouTube/etc., you might only need the lashes on for a quick photo session or video. These would work well for that.
They did say you need to apply these BEFORE makeup. I tried it that way and then applied my eyeshadow and it was fine. I also applied them after applying my eyeshadow. They stayed secure longer when applied BEFORE eyeshadow, but did stay secure for about 40 min when applied AFTER eyeshadow.
After the first use, they don’t stick very well. If you applied them to clean, dry skin, they stick much better and stay secured longer. But if applied to eyeshadow, they don’t stick as well the second time, even if you make sure to clean them off after.
Overall, I can’t really recommend these unless you only want lashes that will be quick to apply (few seconds), don’t need them to last longer than a couple hours, and don’t mind getting only a use or 2 out of them. If that works for you, go for it because they do stick.
