Ardell Wispies Lashes Review!

Lashes are a product that I seem to have an endless love hate relationship with. As a pale blonde girl with hooded eyes... there are few styles that I can wear and not look ridiculous. After much wasted time, effort and money I think I've finally found the perfect  set of lashes. The Ardell Demi Wispies for me give that perfect balance between the natural fluttery look, and evening glam-without the added ridiculous black spiders which look like they've  nested on your eyelids... yeah, you know what I mean! 

The lashes come without glue, which doesn't make a difference to me, as I only tend to use DUO glue. But if you don't have glue, it's something to bare in mind when purchasing.  Ialso must say that they're incredibly easy to apply and feel so natural you may even forget you're wearing them. 

I love everything about these lashes... so get ready to see them featured  in a lot more make up posts from now on.

I'm always on the hunt for beautiful lashes, so if you have any suggestions for other brands I should try...let me know in the comments!

MAC #35 Eyelashes Review

Oh what I'd give for natural long wispy lashes but unfortunately I was blessed with short stumps... if you're like me and suffer the same stumpy lash fate then that's okay, because MAC has your back.

I recently picked up the MAC #35 Lashes a few weeks ago whilst I was at Kings Cross Station in London. I love that there's a MAC store there and just being able to pop in and browse whilst waiting for a train is a nice touch.

I'd seen these lashes on a few people on Instagram and I loved how they added glamour but in an unusual way. You may have noticed these lashes in my Kylie Jenner Tutorial. The MAC #35 eyelashes are a strip lash which provides more length and body towards the centre of the eye, rather than at the outer corner and are made up of several individual strands clumped together.

The only downside with these lashes for me is the length and that they require a fair amount of curling as they're practically straight when you buy them. I wish they were just ever so slightly shorter, and when I spoke to some of the artists at MAC about them, they didn't recommend trimming them down, so with these eyelashes, it's a case of go hard or go home.

At £10.50 they're not the cheapest, but they are worth investing in if you don't wear lashes that often as they can be reused. I'm not sure these passed the boyfriend test, but they're growing on me, and I don't hate them just yet.

I'd love to hear your honest thoughts on these eyelashes! Let me know in the comments...

A look from last week...

You caught me in a blogging mood before I go to bed... this is a look from last week.

I really like these Eylure lashes!! But I have no freaking idea which ones they are i'm wearing.

I might have a little lash hunt online or see if I can make it out to a drugstore.

What are your favourite eyelashes to wear?
