The Dirty on Eyelash Extensions

12:50 PM | Labels: , , , , ,

Hey Dolls,

 My love for  lash extensions has been an up and down roller coaster for awhile now. The relationship started out great , but after my most recent individual lash extension application,  I am  starting  to see signs of a break up coming real soon.  I have always had decent eyelashes, not too thin and a decent length.  I do not wear much makeup so the thought of adding some lashes to enhance my look was that was easy to make.  Pictured below is me with a set of strip lashes on and eyeliner. 

As much as I love the individual lashes, applying a new strip everyday before work became tedious. So I decided to look more into individual lashes.  I went and got my first pair professionally done and I loved it!  The individual lashes lasted me about 3 weeks before they started falling off, but I did notice a few of my real lashes would fall off with it.  The pros outweighed the cons so I continued to get my falsies redone every 3 to 4 weeks as needed.  Sometimes  to  save some money, I would do a fill-in myself on my lashes.  This went on for a few months until well , yesterday.  I decided to take off my lashes that have been on for 3 weeks only to find out the glue (which was a different Ardell Lashtite glue than my beautician usually uses) broke off many of my natural lashes.  The glue left my lashes so damaged, that most either broke off or completely pulled out of the follicle. And they are completely uneven  , and my eyelids are puffy (See Picture Below). 

So now I am in the damage control phase, for the next week I will be doing a Vaseline treatment on my lashes at night, applying Vaseline near my lash line in small circular motions to help stimulate the hair follicles, drinking tea and taking Vitamin E daily.   I will post my updated results in 2 weeks.... if there is not noticeable change, I will try Latisse (Nervous to go there, but hey beauty require extra work sometimes). 

Wish me luck dolls.... hopefully in 2 weeks I can give you a glimpse of my successful eyelash recovery.

 XOXO,

 Paper Doll
