I had thought about getting them but they do make me nervous with loosing lashes. I think it would be hard to keep them away from water if you are showering and washing your face on a daily basis. But they are sooooo pretty and look more natural then false lashes.

Looks impressive ❤
These always look good but I’m not sure I’d have the patience to maintain them – or lay there for so long while they are put in, haha!
Hope your week is going well 🙂
I still haven’t tried this, but I do love long lashes.
