These are a staple in my makeup kit. They're very easy to apply. I took off a lippie because they're hard too find! I wish my local big box store, or even Walgreens or CVS carried them. It's really a pain to get them shipped form the internet all the time.
I searched high and low for knot-free individual falsies and finally went to Sally's (they only sell the knotted kind at Target, Walmart & Walgreens). I use shorts & mediums (longs are much too long unless you have insanely long lashes). I used the DUO individual lash glue to put these on - at first i followed the instructional video on the website that said to dip the lash in glue then brush the dipped end along your own lashes for better bonding but this is a big mistake b/c this glue dries shiny and for the pieces that i did that with look terrible extremely stiff and very shiny...clearly fake. The ones where i didnt follow this technique look much much better.
Overall these lashes are awesome but are a bit tricky. Be careful to apply them to your own lashes and NOT onto your lid, but don't apply them too far from the root or it looks odd as well. If you do it right it looks really nice and natural. continued >>

I am really surprised the other reviews on these are so positive - I am tempted to try again - but I spent AGES trying to sort these out, to no avail - the glue kept drying out too quickly so I was running out; I found the tiny tube really fiddly even though I put a couple of drops onto foil like it said to do. When I finally managed to get a few lashes stuck on, and left them to set, they then pulled straight back off with the gentlest pull! And they are supposed to stay put for 2-3 weeks! I probably will try again, maybe with a different glue or something, as I don't like to be beaten :-) but was initially very disappointed with these.

I lost all most of my eyelashes due to illness, and I was wearing strip lashes. Well, that got to be a big pain, and I wanted something a little more permanent. I use this brand and Andrea too; I cannot tell the difference between them. Currently, I am wearing the medium black, and would love to find medium brown. The individual lashes are long wearing, if you use the individual lash glue. Mine usually stay on up to a week. Keep in mind, that you will have to do daily maintenance, because there is fall-off from sleeping. Be sure to buy some extra packs, or you might wake up one day with a fair amount of missing lashes.
Application is easy. Just like anything, the more you do it, the easier it gets. I bought a special tool for application, but I prefer my cheap e.l.f. tweezers, and they work perfect. I find it hard to see the clear glue on a piece of foil, so I use a small piece of cardboard. Wearing the individual lashes opens up my eyes ~ they make my eyes look really big even without eye shadow. Be careful not to apply too many ~ I have done so and when you sleep they get lopsided. Love this lashes! These are a great beauty staple...

I am new to the false eyelash world. My roommate put these on me using the black glue and they have been on for over a week! I have pretty long eyelashes to begin with, but I love the fullness and flutteriness this gives! I haven't had a single lash fall out. I wear eyeliner and shadow but have no need for mascara. This is super appealing to a contact wearing gal like myself. No flakes! Even my expensive mascara from Lancome and Benefit can't all the way say that. Plus, when I get up in the morning, I look like I have fresh mascara on. I'm going to start applying them on myself. Maybe not all the time, but most of the time. LOVES.
I'm a newbie at wearing fake eye lashes. I bought the individual lashes to give them a try and I'm glad I did.
The lashes are not hard to apply at all. You just dip the tip into the glue and wait a few seconds and apply.
I use about 8-10 individual lashes per eye. Starting from the middle out to the outer corner. These lashes make my eyes pop and add glamour for a night out. They look so much natural than the strip lashes.
You can intensify your eye by adding more individual lashes. You can go from natural to BAM. They last all night and they are very comfortable.
Ok, so don't let the no on "would you buy this product again" scare or confuse you...let me explain.
I purchased this thinking that it would be something I could apply in the mornings and take off in the evenings. My bad for not examining it further...These lashes are not, I repeat, NOT for putting on in the morning and taking off in the evenings. These individual lashes, coupled with the Ardell individual lash glue are no joke! I tried to take them off the evening of the day that I put them on and they were not budging. I had to break out my Argon oil and massage them off, which hurt like you would not believe! If you are looking for semi-permanent (think 3-5 days without using an oil based eye make up remover) then these are perfect for you, but for my girls who are just looking for "night out lashes" get the strip! To sum it up, these work....really, REALLY well.
