Eyelash Extensions

[BikiniSlut]

Have you ladies had these?

Tell me about your experiences with them!!

I love love love how they look!

They are a bit pricey though....but was it worth it to you?

I know a few who've had them.  No problems and they liked them, BUT very $$$, frequent maint (also $$), and very time consuming to apply.  Facial cleansing and showering kinda a PITA so as not to compromise the glue (make sure it does not contain formaldehyde).  Definitely make sure the person is certified (aesthetician).  I might consider it for a beach vacation - maybe - but $350+ & 2+ hours for something that's only going to last 3-4 weeks - doubt it.  I use Latisse 2Xweek.  Not the same thing, but with Lash Stiletto or Blink mascara, I often get asked if I have extensions.

Latisse princess??

How has that worked for you? Has it made a difference and is it prescription? Any before and after pics??

I just picked up some Rapid Lash XL and have started using that.

I'm lucky...I have nice lashes naturally but want glamorous ones.

I'll pay for extensions for special occasions for sure.

Technically, I think it's prescription.  Regardless, it can only be purchased from a salon with a Dr. on staff.

I didn't realize I've been using it for so long.  No sides (anymore).  It has done nothing for my lower lashes as far as I can tell even though I occasionally swipe the brush through the lower lash line.  It's only made them longer and maybe a smidge darker, but not thicker.  Quantity is the same which is to be expected I suppose ~ one lash per folicle ?
